Galgos Rescue Almeria – full but still helping abandoned galgos
‘A few days ago our help was requested for an abandoned young galga. We had to wait impatiently since she had been taken to the local council kennels.
Last weekend we made an attempt to get her out of there but we didn’t get permission from the police and had to wait until Monday, typical Spain. Today around noon we received the positive news that we could come pick her up.
She’s such a happy young girl and thankfully she is now safe in our Rescue center.’

Puntanimals – hard work in the rain
It has rained a lot in Spain recently, topping up the reservoirs but no fun with a shelter full of dogs!‘Rainy days are really hard in the shelter as they can’t go out to the yard to relate and play with the rest,they are a little more stressed by the limitations and although all of these are sheltered and have a roof and it’s ok but the sun has not risen.
We put blankets and vests on them daily, if they get wet we wipe them off with towels, but no matter how much we want to, it can’t compare to the care and care of a home.
Rainy days are also hard because of all the furry ones on the street, with no place to shelter and we unfortunately are always saturated with dogs because neglect is unbearable.

Galga Neu with Puntanimals in Umbria, Spain – hoping for a forever home.
From Puntanimals in Spain.
‘This little one is also a victim of hunting and abandonment, luckily her path crossed with that of our friend Belén who is the foster home of many of our rescues, infinite thanks for everything you do for them. You are safe now NEU, your life has changed already.
We leave you Belen’s words about the history and character of NEU.
“I’m headed out to walk my troop like just another day.” That day I decided to take a different route, shorten the road to get to a traffic light earlier. It was an accidental decision that would save a life. When I was walking half a street, a person stopped me and asked me if I wanted to pick up a galgo that was abandoned and in the heat. I told him I would if I was sure that dog didn’t belong to anyone, I didn’t want trouble if it was someone’s. He assured me no, she was abandoned. He brought it to me and delivered it to me.
Unknowingly, that dog had gotten a second chance. She is a low-medium galgo, young approx 1’5 or 2 years old. At first skeptical but soon you win her over and she’s charming. Gets along well with dogs, doesn’t react to small dogs.

Galgo Lord with Scooby Residencia Valladolid – hoping for a forever home
From Cobie at Scooby Residencia Valladolid‘This stunning boy is Lord and a while ago he stood at the door from the Scooby residencia with a broken front leg. Obviously abandoned like that and asking if we could help him. Of course we did so he was operated in Madrid and now he is completely recuperated, he does not even limp. He is still very young, super sweet, sympathetic, loves to play with the other dogs and not scared at all.
He’s obviously had a hard life from all the scars on his poor body. All he needs now is a loving forever family. Chip: 98111.

Galga Orla with Galgos en Familia – hoping for a forever home
‘Today we are going to talk to you about Orla.
Orla is a 7-year-old Galgo female, she was rescued by our colleagues from Siempre Contigo en Rota, there the owner took them, with a clear message: “o las cogéis or las quito de enmedio”, yes, of course. (You take her or I’ll get rid of her’).
Orla’s life hasn’t been easy, her scars and the state of her body, tell us that she knows pain well and what it’s like to give birth in every heat.
Luckily all that is now behind and Orla has started a new life, a life in which there is affection, care and respect. Orla is a very grateful girl, close, caring and quiet, she still must adapt to city life, traffic, noise, etc…but we know little by little she will get it.
