  • Huesca, Zaragoa – can anyone help Chiqui

    Chiqui 8 2012 200I’ve received this plea from a volunteer about a podenco x who is in Huesca perrera. He was attacked by another dog and has an injured leg. Susanna desperately wants to get him out, but the refuges and fosters are full. Can anyone help her? You can write to her using Google translate into Spanish – that’s how she wrote to me in English!

    My name is Susan and I write from Spain to ask for your help. I apologize if I do not write well. I used the internet translator because I have only a little English.

    I have attached a photo of Chiqui. He is a x podenco in the perrera of Huesca (Zaragoza). He is 4 years old and is a very good dog, very friendly, cheerful and has a fantastic character.

There are dozens of them in the Perrera of Huesca, waiting to find out what life has in store for them. The photos are on Facebook, for those of you who use Facebook The person to contact at the perrera is the vet, joseabarca@internacionalplayers.comand the person you have to talk to if you want to know something about the dogs and if you want to reserve any. There are a lot of podencos there who need help. Here are somebetween 6 – 12 months old.
