Charl and I have been good friends since 2007 when I founded Galgo News and Charl wrote publicity articles for Inland Trader and other journals, about the plight of the galgos. I’ve been pleased to support her along her journey to the stables where her first rescues were housed, to the finca in Alhaurin. We even rescued her horse Bailey together, saved from the cruel hands of a gitano. An incredible journey and a story of total devotion to the galgos, and some podencos.
The lease contract on the finca is now coming to an end and 112carlotagalgos has been lucky to be able to take on a long-term rental on a finca just down the lane from the current one.
It will be a mammoth task, moving house always is. But for Charl, Dioni and family, it also means moving the hounds and Bailey and carrying out the construction work to create the kennels etc needed to continue their work. It also requires funds to purchase the building materials.
Pictures of the finca are on this link, together with details of how you can donate.
