ACTIN can now report on a case of severe maltreatment of galgos which they have been working on since august 2013. This is why they need your support, to pay their legal team fight such cases through the courts. The two galgos are now with 112carlotagalgos and they have sponsors. Charl has asked that any donations for them be sent direct to ACTIN to help them continue their work.
Viv Wharton reports.
In August 2013, Actin was alerted to a case of 3 dogs being kept in horrendous conditions. It is hard to prove cruelty and neglect in Spain because of the lack of an animal protection act or an official organisation in Spain. Since Actin’s conception one of its aims is to prove how many cases like this exist and to find the right way to deal with it effectively.
This particular case had many complications and was almost lost because of the difficulties, thankfully these are finally safe after 18 months. This is due to the determination of witnesses and the dedication of Actin to make these cases successful and to prove how extreme the problem is and the difficulties to resolve obvious cases of animal cruelty. We want to show it is possible with dedication and determination.
Anyone that wants to make changes to this awful situation needs to have confidence and knowledge of how to do it, or how to support what is needed to make the difference. We need as many as possible to join us in this and to believe that there is hope.
Snowdrop and Seda have had the chance of a better life and will be in the care of 112 Carlota Galgos. Charl has asked that any donations directly supporting these dogs to Actin, towards the litigation procedures for this and other cases, in order to help progress and prove the severity of the problems in Spain, then please see how you can help by referring to actin’s website www.actin-spain.com
