  • Portuguese Podengo Florence – waiting for her forever home

    Dogs of Portugal have this absolutely gorgeous young Portuguese Podengo waiting for her forever home. You can see photos and videos of her on this weblink. Please someone, give her a chance.

    If you are thinking of adopting a podenco, please adopt from a shelter. There is a list of rehoming associations here. Don’t adopt from a perrera. Ignore the cries of ‘these dogs will be killed’ because what happens if they are saved – they end up in a shelter, if there is room for them, and then could wait years before getting a home.

    Remember, if you adopt a dog from a shelter, then that leaves space for another podenco – maybe abandoned in the campo, starving and injured on a roadside.

    Adopt from an association, not a perrera.

  • Portuguese Podengo Thomas – with Many Tears Rescue, Wales

    Many Tears Tom 190Here’s the story of Tom, a Portuguese Podengo x rescued and now with Many Tears Rescue in Wales. He’s looking for his forever family, along with another 9 Podencos – all in the UK in foster. June writes.

    ‘Learning to be loved:

    With all your help we have been able to save a number of dogs that were all going to die on the streets of Portugal.

    These dogs have been doing really well, some are now in permanent homes, whilst others are still awaiting their special day!

    om made his way to my family. Tom is a happy go lucky kind of a guy, but even with his chirpy character and live life to the full attitude you can still see that his soul
    bears scars of his former life! He truly believed that hands were a source of pain and something to be feared, he has been with me just under three weeks now and is just starting to understand that hands can make food and toys appear. If you moved too
    swiftly he would whimper believing a smack was coming his way!
