Starving to death in a coral in Cordoba!
There are no regulations in Spain to which refuges and shelters have to adhere. Some are a living hell for dogs and cats which have already suffered from maltreatment and abuse. This is a 'coral' in Cordoba where dogs including podencos are starving to death through lack of food and water. When dogs get to this stage, they will even attack and eat each other. There is evidence of this here. El Arca de Noe Cordoba complained about the situation, and the authorities removed the dogs to the local pound. Death awaits them, from lethal injection if they haven't already succumbed to infection and illness before them.

Podencos – victims of Spanish hunters – hear their plea
The following stories have come in showing the unnecessary cruelty which hunters will inflict on their dogs when they are no longer of use nor wanted. The first podenco was the victim of being hung by a steel belt! The old one was abandoned at a petrol filling station, searching for food. The third one – well, you can see the terrible condition, how long had this poor podenco been on the streets of La Cazalla (70km from Seville), with no food. La Linea at Cadiz is one of the shelters which has hundreds of these dogs, all deserving a forever home.
And two tiny podenco puppies in the Seville perrera! If you can help them, contact perrosurgentes@hotmail.com
