Thinking of going on holiday to Spain – want some warmth for the winter? Well, this poor galgo got more warmth than he deserved – courtesy of inhuman Spaniards!
This is a message from a volunteer in Spain.
Dear friends,
I send you a terrible news. Yesterday in the evening we gathered in the suburbs of Albacete this poor galgo, after the call of a few women who were walking along the zone.
As you can see in the photos, he was burned alive with petrol….., he took burns as a great part of the body and especially for the head, his mouth and eyes were burned, besides other zones of the body. His suffering was enormous and our veterinarians decided upon euthanasia, since it was the more humane thing that it was possible to do for him, the poor dog already was agonizing between terrible pains ……
We all in the refuge remain very impressed and with an enormous feeling of impotence and of anger towards another atrocity more than it commits with one of the most docile dogs of the world.
The photos are very strong.
Sad regards

HELLO FROM SPAIN
this case has been resolved as an accident and not as a willing act of animal cruelty.
NEWS ABOUT THIS CASE: The dog has not been mistreated, it has been victim of a fire coused by a molotov cocktail thrown against the house of the dog’s owner. Several more galgos got hurt in this brutal attack, some of the could be saved by the owners, some run in panic away. One of them was this poor galga, The police confirmes the story.
best wishes from spain

Hi Mo
Thanks for your comment. I’ve noted the details about the case as a separate item. Whatever goes through the minds of people who perpetrate these murderous acts? Was the owner of the house injured – could the police treat it as attempted murder and get the b…..d?
You do amazing work, we all have the utmost admiration for you.
