This podenca is in Gesser killing station, Cadiz, Almeria. Can’t anyone take her. And don’t tell me there is a God, that allows innocent animals to suffer like this! I gave up believing a long time ago, because too many animals all over the world suffer unnecessarily, at the hands of man! Finally got an email address! gloryfranjose@hotmail.com

URGENT- young podencas on death row, Rioja, Logorno, 21 Jan is ‘die day’.
This appeal was sent out today (20.1.2012). I am not sure if the dogs have had a reprieve, I think they may be killed tomorrow 21/1, rather than 19/1. So I’m sending out the appeal for help for them. A Kennel or foster home urgently needed so they can be got out. We’re talking about Rioja and Logrono immediately.
Dora is a small young podenca, nervous, hasn’t known affection. When she advances, she is very sweet, just needs a loving home to be a star.
Moka (below) is another young female podenca. She is skinny, her eyes are fearful, she doesn’t trust. And yet, if she could be rescued now, she will bloom, put on weight and her coat will shine. She will show the joy of life she deserves.
If anyone can take them now, contact ar.difusionperrera@gmail.com

Valencia podenca rescued from starvation – needs her forever home
The resilience of dogs never ceases to amaze me – and their capacity to forgive humans too. This podenca was rescued starving and near death’s door in the Valencia area. You can see from the photo when she was rescued that she could barely stand – just skin hanging on a skeletal frame.
Dora, as she has been named, is now in Madrid in a foster home, living with other dogs and cats – so no problem living with cats. She have recovered her health and enjoys playing with her toys – and going for walks with her foster mom.

Gran Canaria, dogs starved to death – Seprona on the case
Podencoworld reports this story.
The Guardia Civil Seprona Santa Maria de Guía (Gran Canaria), has accused a man of an alleged crime of animal abuse and neglect after an investigation and finding several dogs in poor condition. One of the officers who went to investigate, found two lofts, which was a strong odour.
Upon entering the room he saw two podencos on chains. One of them was still alive, but emaciated due to malnutrition, probably because there was no trace of food and water around. A short distance away lay the body of another podenco,extremely thin in appearance and with several bite wounds, with clear signs of having been partially devoured. The Civil Guard found another dead dog, this time of the Boxer breed.

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.
