    ARAY FOR RESPONSIBLE ADOPTION

    ARAY is a very sociable little dog with dogs and shy with people, but little by little he will improve

    He is suitable for cats

    He is young, almost one year old, medium-sized, and weighs about 15 kilos.

    ARAY is very friendly, fun, and loves to play with other dogs

    He is learning to walk on a leash

    Can you help us find a family for him?

    We are looking for a family that lives outside urban areas, he is still afraid of car noises and crowds of people.

    We are looking for a family that already has a dog at home, he needs a dog to copy.

    ARAY is available for adoption, vaccinated, tested, sterilized, and with his chip

    REJECT HUNTERS

    If you want to meet him, leave a WhatsApp on the phone 679 24 10 95 (no audios, nor calls)

  • Salva un Podenco Gran Canaria – podenco rescue on Gran Canaria, Canary Islands

    “Save a Podenco in Gran Canaria” is an animal shelter run by volunteers. Since 2017, we have been dedicated to the rescue, protection, and raising awareness about Podencos. Because they are used for hunting, Podencos are excluded from current animal protection laws, which makes it very difficult to help them.

    We rescue them, find them foster homes, and prepare them to be happy; to have a family that lasts them a lifetime. (more…)

  • How long should a dog be left alone?

    Dogs are pack animals, they prefer company, whether it is another dog, cat or human.  Many suffer from separation anxiety.  We have always had more than one dog, although now we are down to just one and take her with us most places we go.

    So how long should a dog reasonably be expected to be left alone.

  • Skin Lesions and Cancer in Dogs

    As a family, we have lost 5 dogs, 1 horse and l cat to different types of cancer.  Lymphoma reared itself as a lump on a galgo’s neck, which had spread.  A sarcoma started bleeding under my horse’s tail.  Cancer developed in my cat’s mouth.  2 more galgos had stomach tumours.

    Weblink to an interesting article on lumps on your dog.  It doesn’t always mean cancer.
