This note was sent by Cobie at Scooby Valladolid – you may remember last year the Junta proposed rescinding the law in Andalucia.
‘Good news: this letter, send to Fermin, informs that the junta de Andalucia will NOT approve the training from galgos behind motorised vehicles, it STAYS forbidden like in the rest from Spain!
Fermin: ¡Lo hemos conseguido!
Cuando nos enteramos de que la Junta de Andalucía pretendía legalizar la práctica de entrenar galgos de caza arrastrándolos con vehículos a motor, no lo dudamos e iniciamos una petición en Change.org. Casi 60.000 personas la habéis firmado para reclamar que no se autorizase esta actividad inhumana.
Hoy tenemos una buena noticia que darte: hace unas semanas varios representantes de CACMA nos reunimos con parlamentarios de IU para informarles de nuestra petición y de las miles de firmas obtenidas. Estos se comprometieron a preguntar al Consejero competente si se iba a producir la aprobación de esta normativa. Y su respuesta fue clara: la propuesta de legalizar el entrenamiento de galgos con vehículos de motor no se va a tramitar en ningún momento.
Por lo tanto, podemos afirmar que el entrenamiento de galgos a motor es una actividad que está y seguirá estando prohibida en Andalucía. Con tu ayuda hemos logrado parar una barbaridad que perjudicaría a cientos de animales de nuestra región.
Gracias por ayudar a provocar un cambio como este.
CACMA.
Whilst I was at Pepis recently, I saw the local man running his 6 galgos beside him on his motorbike. So, the question – do you denounce him? The practicality. He or his buddies would come along and either steal your rescued galgos or chuck poisoned meat over the fence into you dog kennels to kill your dogs – both of which have happened to Pepis in the past.
