Song to a Galguero
Hey Galguero!
At first I was afraid
I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights
thinking how you did me wrong
And I grew strong
And I learned how to get along
and you DUMPED me

A message for Dog Breeders
This is a message for dog breeders – you contribute to the over-population of dogs and the mass killing of dogs as a result. This especially is for the galguers and cazadores who overbreed galgos and podencos and to everyone else in Europe who breeds galgos and podencos. TIME TO STOP BREEDING THESE HOUNDS!

Greyhound Molly – the start of my journey
I was going through some old photos (before my time of digital ones!) and found a couple of photos of my first greyhound Molly. Back in 1994 when people didn’t adopt greyhounds and Greyhounds in Need was in its infancy, a stray greyhound turned up at our home in Suffolk, UK. She had a tattoo in one ear and so I contacted the Greyhound Stud Book to see if we could identify her origins.. We were unsuccessful, although they could tell me that from the letter X in the tattoo that she had been born/registered in 1987.
Molly became a much loved pet, a very popular PAT (Pets as Therapy) dog and as you can see from one photo, she lived happily with our cats – here’s Tabitha stepping out beside her – and we had her for another 7 years before ill health finally took its toll.
And it’s thanks to Molly that my journey into the world of galgos and podencos began.

Why have a dog?
Can you imagine the bad luck this poor boy has had in his 2 year life?! Angie Robinson tells his story.
‘This is POST. We’ve seen him before in the Valencia perrera municipal….. He was found wandering last year and picked up by the dog catchers, and then later retrieved by the owner. He was found again, last week, wandering alone with a broken chain still around his neck where he had broken free. We understand that he was kept on a plot of land chained up, living outside. This time, the owner has signed him over with permission to sacrifice. POST is CESE – this means that when a kill list is drawn up, the CESE dogs that are entered by owner will be at the top of the sacrifice list.
