Many years ago my first galga came from Ciudad Real, a hellhole for hunting dogs. This poor galga was found dying in a rubbish bin. Here’s the story.
‘Agents of the local police in Puertollano have managed to rescue alive 10/12/2014 this galgo struggling inside a Dumpster of the industrial city. This has been released by the police themselves on his Twitter account @ PuertoLocal092, which attacks the “damned criminals” who have been perpetrators. The agents have reported that the animal has been taken to the vet by volunteers from the Protectora Huellas.
Now named Angeles, she is serious but stable, has an infection and damage to one of her hind legs, and still is not out of danger, still fighting for her life. The galgos are some dogs very strong, do not lose hope.’
I’d guess she was dumped to die because she broke a leg hunting

Wow!!! The Spanish Police has a heart after all. After everything we hear about the police not caring and not doing anything and even contributng to the problem, it’s great to read this news. It seems to show a subtle shift in the way people view galgos… Great news!

At Huellas, Puertollano, we are working really hard to improve relations with the local police and it seems to be paying off. We also do primary and secondary school visits as we believe that members of the next generation are vital in this battle.
ANGELES, the galga, is in a stable, but obviously critical condition with a very infected hind leg and effects from being hit on the head before being dumped.
Thank you for your interest.
Karen Caws, President Huellas Puertollano
