This little podenca is Maria, who was abandoned and has lived most of her life on the streets of a village near to Seville, too terrified to be caught. Searching for food amongst rubbish, dodging vehicles on the road, bearing puppies.
She was finally captured last month by an association ARCA, along with her 3 puppies. She has been hit twice by vehicles and has suffered a compression of the spinal cord which has resulted in a loss of feeling, and poor movement.
ARCA have arranged swith their vet for an operation to be carried out, to help Maria live as near normal a life as possible. The cost of the operation is 900 euros, on top of the cost of the private kennels where they keep the dogs they rescue till they are rehomed.
If you are able to donate to the association to help pay the cost of the vet fees, the details are as follows.
