  • Protectora Scooby fighting for the hunting dogs of Spain

    MANIFESTO FOR THE EQUALITY OF ALL DOGS. Join with your organisation!

    As many of you already know, there is an attempt to exclude hunting and working dogs from the Royal Decree on animal facilities (núcleos zoológicos) — their last chance to be protected. These dogs would be left even more unprotected under a decree issued by the Ministry of Agriculture, which would only require registration, identification, and little else. Reporting the poor conditions of hunting packs (rehalas) would become even more difficult. (more…)

  • Hope for Podencos- Sonny needs a foster or adoption for 22nd November

    Sonny

    Date of Birth: 1st January 2023
    Gender: Male
    Size: 65cm (to the withers)/25kg
    Cats: Not tested

    Sonny is a large pod who is lovely and friendly and likes to please! He is clever (like most pods) and is food oriented which makes him a great training prospect. He plays nicely with the other dogs, but we think would also do fine in a home on his own where his humans can lavish him with affection and give him lots of time and attention. He’s a confident boy and great around people – as he’s quite large, we think he’d be better suited to slightly older children. Other than that he’s pretty versatile in terms of the type of home he’s looking for!

  • Hope for Podencos – Lucky needs foster or adoption for 22nd November

    Lucky

    Date of Birth: 26th May 2022
    Gender: Male
    Size: 55cm (to the withers)/23kg
    Cats: Not suitable for cats

    Lucky is known as the velcro dog – he LOVES people, and does do well with both men and women when he first meets them. He’s happy when out and about on walks and doesn’t pull on the lead. He had previously been adopted in Spain but was a little anxious and sensitive around the man in the home so whilst we don’t want to rule out any potential matches we would need to caveat that any men in the home would need to work at his pace and be understanding to any nervousness displayed. Lucky prefers female dogs and would happily live with one or two. Alternatively we think he would also do well as an only dog.

    Lucky could live in a town or rural setting, but he does need a garden as he enjoys being outside having a play with his doggy pals.

    Lucky is a little over his ideal weight so a weight management plan would be shared with any potential adopters/fosters – this is not causing any health concerns for the vet.

  • Podenco Antonio hoping for an active forever home

    Antonio Video

    Antonio is a beautiful 2 year old Podenco male with a gentle disposition.  Antonio was found on the streets of Fuerteventuras. Despite his past, he shows himself to be an extremely human, affectionate and friendly dog. Antonio is full of energy because of course he wants to seize the opportunity to show off on the chain when one finally comes by. The young male has a distinctive personality and needs both mental and physical exercise.  Even when dealing with other dogs Antonio shows himself social and uncomplicated – a real treasure who just wants to belong.  Now he only lacks one thing: a loving home where he can arrive and show what a wonderful companion he is.  Who will give Antonio a chance at a new life full of love and security?

  • Male Portuguese Podengos looking for forever homes

    Jackie Dias Dick 400
    A couple of days ago I published some beautiful female Portuguese Podengos looking for forever homes. These are the male Portuguese podengos at the same shelter, run by friends of Jackie Dias, 30 minutes from Porto. The males are neutered and completing their vaccination programmes. They will eventually be microchipped and get an EU Pet Passport.

    Information for adoptees outside of Portugal on how the best way they can ship a dog to a foreign country can be given.

    Contact: jb.dias18@gmail.com

    Introducing DICK – (pic above) Male Podengo and very handsome – a true podengo with the bat-like ears! He also has a great temperament. He suffered a lot at the hands of hunters and eventually it is thought that after losing his scent on a hunt he got lost and was found hungry and thirsty. He is looking for a forever home.

  • URGENT – appeal for donations for a heart op for Podenco Pup Ritchie

    Bev Grubba Ritchie 400 10 2018
    Please, if anyone can donate even just £5 to help pay for this podenco puppy to have a heart op and give him a chance of living a full life. The appeal hasn’t even reached a quarter of the amount needed. Please help and share too.

    Ritchie’s story from Bev Grubba, who is making the appeal.

    Ritchie is a 7 month abandoned pup and has a severe heart condition and needs surgery to try and save his life, within 4 months!

    He has an extra vein in his aorta which means all fluids are mixing, and he doesn’t have enough oxygen to work the heart, so this vein needs to be removed, intricate,complicated surgery The vet won’t do this till Funds are in.

    I didn’t know how else to get help and I couldn’t stand by and not try and help, hence this fundraiser.

    https://www.gofundme.com/heart-operation-for-pup-ritchie?member=829084

    PAYPAL bevgrubba@hotmail.com or if you wish to pay through a bank a/c, email Bev Grubba and she will give you the details. Any amount will help, the target is £2,000 but you can donate in any currency.
