  • Galga Ana – abandoned and pregnant – a happy ending

    Video

    From Sandy at Galgos Rescue Almeria

    I made a little movie of Ana’s story.  Her saving was only possible with lots of help from a few people.
    Now she can be a mum for all her babies and watch them grow up till they are old enough to go their own way.

  • Sign and share this petition to reform the Spanish Penal Code

    Please sign and share this petition organised by PACMA – Partido Animalista.
    ‘we are asking you to support this citizen initiative led by lawyer Xavi Abat, which calls for an urgent reform of the Penal Code. The goal is to ensure that the most severe cases of animal abuse result in actual prison sentences and other measures that permanently prevent abusers from ever owning animals again.’

  • March for the Greyhounds – July 25 in Manchester, England

    For a century, they’ve suffered in silence. It’s time to stand up, show up, and make some noise.
    The greyhound racing industry leaves a long trail of forgotten lives behind bars. These dogs can’t speak for themselves, which means it’s up to us to be their voice.

    Join us in Manchester for the **Century of Suffering – March For The Murdered Million** and demand an end to the cruelty.

    📍 **Where:** All Saints Park, Manchester

    📅 **When:** 25th July 2026

    ⏰ **Time:** 11:30 AM

  • Can dogs have a chicken allergy?

    Chicken is usually recommended, along with rice, as a good for dogs especially recovering after illness.  When I visited a shelter in Spain some years ago, raw chicken carcases were delivered from a chicken processing factory as food for the rescue dogs.  I regularly feed minced cooked chicken to my dogs without a problem.

    However, dogs can have allergies to certain foods just like humans.  so can they have a chicken allergy?

  • Ex-racing galga – used, abused, injured – now safe with Galgos Rescue Almeria

    Video

    Late week, our van headed to Los Gallardos to pick up a 2-year-old girl. She had been used for competitive racing, but due to injuries to her hind leg, she was no longer considered “useful.”  At the rescue center, she is now finally receiving the rest, care, and time she needs to recover. We will continue to monitor her progress closely and share more updates soon.

  • Does your dog talk to you?

    Some dogs are more vocal than others.  I’m not talking about barking, whether it be as an alarm because someone is at the door, orbarking in play.  I’m talking about your dog talking to you.  My Podenco Rosie loves carrying one of her toys in her mouth, especially when I’ve been out and return home.  She nakes a lovely soft growly noise, tail wagging furiosly, for anything up to 2 or 3 minutes.  I love it, and of course talk back to her!

  • 7 more galgos arrive at Galgos Rescue Almeria

    Even though hunting with hounds in Spain ended at the end of January, the shelters are still overwhelmed with dogs abandoned and dumped in perreras.

    No sooner has space been made in shelters because galgos have left for their forever homes but the space is soon filled by more innocent souls dumped by the galgueros.  The pressure never stops.

  • China – weighing a greyhound for sale to the butcher

    We think the Spanish galgueros are cruel to their hunting dogs. This is the meat market in China where dogs are taken off the truck, weighed and sold for human consumption. Many are greyhounds sent from the UK and Ireland after racing has finished, many are bred in China by AI.
