Comment on the situation for the hunting dogs of Spain
English translation of the article written by Norma Fierro.
I suppose most of you have seen the horrific images from last week of 32 dead greyhounds in a pack of dogs in Badajoz. They died of starvation, thirst, and chained up. Those who managed to break free from their chains out of desperation tried to eat their dead companions to survive. The photo is horrifying, all those poor dogs killed by the abuse and abhorrent neglect of a hunter. Today you will hear me, because no one listened to these 32 greyhounds. This is the photo that portrays not only the absolute evil of the murderous hunter who caused this barbarity, but it is also a photo of the disastrous political decisions . It is the photo that the so-called National Animal Protection Law has given us.

PACMA demand talks with the DG of the Civil Guard about abuse and abandonment of hunting dogs in Spain
PACMA have the following update on the situation of the 32 dogs found dead at Badajoz.
‘We have requested an urgent meeting with the Director General of the Civil Guard to address the problem of the systematic abuse and abandonment of dogs used in hunting, who live in deplorable conditions and suffer especially during the summer.
We are doing so after learning, just a few days ago, of the starvation death of a pack of 32 dogs in Azuaga (Badajoz). We travelled to learn firsthand what happened and to ask the City Council to make a public statement and to take part in the case (watch the video here).

Foster or Adopt a Senior – they have just as much love to give
From Galgos 112Have you thought about it, meditated, balance the pros and cons… but you don’t want a dog that’s too “active”.. Have you thought about a grandpa or grandma?
And why not?….. Growing up doesn’t mean they have nothing left to give..
They are caring, calm, understand perfectly the basic rules, they do not need so much activity as a younger one, they have not lost curiosity to know new places and things

Poem No to Hunting
INSIDE THE ZULO By: Marta Navarro GarciaInside the zulu the air breaks, howls, moans, disappears.
Just like us, that when the season ends
we have become caged bones,
rumor of sogas,

From Proyecto Galgo ArgentinaWe request the opening of the zoonosis (perreras) centers and kennels of Santa Cruz
By this means, we request all localities in the Province of Santa Cruz to guarantee the opening to the public of zoonosis centers and municipal kennels, where animals removed from public roads are housed.
