Those of you who read Galgo News will know that I have travelled into Spain on several rescue missions with the French association L'Europe des Levriers. Besides galgos, we have brought out many podencos, travelling to their forever homes. This is the translation of an article written by preisdent Beatrice Monnet on the EDL website.

Podencos – cruel treatment by the Spanish hunters
Podencos suffer severe maltreatment at the hands of the Spanish hunters – abandoned, starving, caught in snares, ends of their noses chopped off to make them look like a pig, chained through the mouth to a wall, stoned to death……………..some have even had 'shot' still inside them, where they have been hit as well as the rabbits!Here's a few examples.
I make no apologies for posting all these pictures together, let's start off Podenco Post by showing some of the horrors perpetrated against these loving and affectionate dogs, some of whom found loving homes eventually, one who sadly did not, murdered at the hands of a 16 year-old thug.
