From Protectora Scooby
This handsome guy is Juglar, also abandoned by his owner like thousands of greyhounds every year in Spain. Juggling isn’t sad, she’s happy for her new chance at a worthy life. Gets along phenomenal with other dogs, walks great on a leash, loves cuddles and the couch in your house to sleep for many hours. Chip: 7259.
Three gorgeous girls recently arrived from Andalucia to Scooby , looking in the same direction: a better future!
We introduce you to these two brothers, Otis and Barri, two beauties who have been at the residence for a few months waiting for adoption.
They are healthy, with all the veterinary protocol done and they only need their family to have complete happiness.
These youngsters complement each other perfectly and get along well with other dogs.
If you want to be their family, write with your details to info@galgos112.com and the closest companion will contact you.
Thank you!!

This week is Loneliness Awareness Week. Those of us lucky enough to have hounds for company know how much they help with our day to day happiness, even when sick. Maybe the UK vets should remember this and reduce their diabolical vet fees, rather than force people to give up their four legged companion when they can’t afford expensive vet care.

‘This beautiful girl who is supposed to be adopted soon will probably spend the rest of her life in a kennel in our shelter because she is positive for leishmaniosis and people are more afraid of this Mediterranean disease than of Putin!
With the right treatment, they can live well for many years. It’s not fair that dogs with leish don’t have the chance at a normal life and the love they deserve more than any other dog.
If you can to give this galga, her name is Mistral, a dignified life and make her very happy so she would thank you with all her love and heart writes to: adopciones@scoobymedina.org
An adopter with experience of taking on a dog with leishmania has this to say.
Read about the history of Protectora Scooby Medina on this weblink and take a video tour of the shelter. Since its inception at Medina, the association has also opened shelters in Palencia, Zamorra and Valladolid.
Each year they rescue many galgos dumped in perreras at the end of the hunting season so they always have dozens hoping for forever homes.
If you have room in your home and heart for a galgo – or another galgo – have a look at them on this weblink.
These 3 terrified souls arrived a week ago. Heartbreaking to think of the maltreatment they have suffered at the hands of the galgueros, when they should be happy loving hounds.

Perrigals are galgo x and Scooby has these 2 beauties hoping for forever homes.
‘We have some beautiful perrigals and it’s amazing that they are still here at the shelter without anyone ever asking about them! They are brother and sister, very devoted to each other but no problem separating them either. Still pretty young, about 2 or 3 years old, very playful, great with other dogs and love people. They have all the good of galgos, just a little fatter. Their names are Dorotea, chip: 8428 and Gonzalo, chip: 9239. Adorable and need out of a kennel now!
From Galgos 112, who have nbeen rescuing Spanish hunting dogs for 16 years.
A few days ago we received a notice of this abandoned baby, very hungry and thirsty. What did we do? Being overwhelmed as dogs waiting for a family, we couldn’t look away and luckily for him there was a companion nearby where the little one took refuge.
Result that Tico has joined our family with the extra effort of taking on another daycare payment.
The young boy has been dewormed and cleared from being eaten by fleas and ticks. Not surprising that he’s not carrying a chip.
Welcome Ticorrón! Now it’s our turn to ask for help to pay for his daycare, and or family that can take him in while he recovers.
Thank you if you can help.
