Galga Betsy looking for a foster/adoption home in Barcelona

A galga in a sorry state now safe with Galgos 112.

This is Betsy. She arrived at Galgos 112 in such bad conditions that she was directly admitted to the veterinary clinic. Betsy had a fever and passed out. Had a severe eye infection, was very thin and had anaemia. She was also tested for the usual diseases. The vet calculated her about 10 years but it’s a guess. She has virtually no teeth and without them it’s almost impossible to get her age right.

We have got two news about her: one good and one bad.

The good news is that she is recovering well and still on medication and has been discharged!.

The bad thing is that we don’t have a foster home for her so we’ve had to rehome her and even though they are well cared for there, it’s not the same as being in a home, especially for a gal like Betsy who is already of a respectable age. And we would also like that, because of her eye problem, they could also see her at IVO in Barcelona.

So people of Barcelona and vicinity we need you! Betsy needs you guys!

Betsy is medium-small in size, she is not afraid of people and despite her age, she is quite active and playful. She’s a grumpy grandma. The association takes care of her veterinary expenses, but she needs a family that will open her home to foster her during her recovery and until she is adopted.
