Galgo Perico – another victim of galguero abuse

GRA Perico 350
From Sandy at Galgos Rescue Almeria.

Perocp came unwanted by his galguero and in a very poor state. Taken to the vet, his kidneys were not functioning property. put on a drip and staying in the clinic for further treatment and observation.

Unfortunately, we have no good news to report. Sadly we received a phone call from the vet that Perico had passed away. Further analyses showed that he had Leishmania, his kidneys were hardly functioning anymore. The Leish must have been there for a long time, he spent years with his “owner” but never had any vaccination or protection. Perico is yet another victim of these abuses.

It’s a great loss for us. Perico will be cremated and return to the shelter, a tree will be planted in his memory. Rest in peace boy, you will be not alone up there over the rainbow bridge.
