  • Sad tale of a Podenco Stray lost in the campo

    Jane catching abandoned podenco 400 5 11 2016This year seems to be the year of abandoned podencos for Pepis Dog Refuge. Yet another stray on the lane to the refuge, Jane Brian working hard to catch him. Here’s another of Alan Brian’s terrific moving poems inspired by this little hound.

    Podenco stray
    by Alan Brian of Pepis Dog Refuge

    Although you can see my picture I normally hide away,
    It seems thats how things have to be as im just another stray.
    I’ve lost my home and family, how can this be right,
    Now I have to fend for myself and sleep under the stars at night.
    I sleep here on the wasteland to rest my weary head
    The dirt and rubbish is all I have to make a comfy bed.
    I have no trust in humans, as this picture clearly shows,
    But this lady comes and talks to me then feeds me before she goes.
    I don’t know what will become of me as I did trust once before,
    Maybe I will never trust again, I really can’t be sure.

  • Podenco Passe – always passed over – desperately needs foster and forever

    Passe5_250This is an appeal for a foster or, even better, a forever home for Podenco Passe in Fuengirola, Spain. Maybe his name doesn’t help, he is ‘passed’ over in favour of other dogs in the shelter. Here’s his story.

    He is in a kennel in Fuengarola, Costa Del Sol, Spain. Stacey from 4forpaws adoption took him in as he was being attacked by a Boxer Dog and got badly injured. But that was over 2 years ago and he has been in the kennel now ever since then. He is a lovely looking dog.
