Scooby Medina to the rescue again – live puppies dumped in trash bin
Cobie of Scooby Valladolid is helping care for 3 tiny galga puppies dumped in a trash bin, 4 weeks old. Here’s what she says.
‘We can´t even imagine having a litter of galgos from 4 weeks old and one morning, you take an empty box, put in there three of these tiny little girls, 4 week old puppies, take them to your car, drive to a public dirtbin and leave the box with its precious content in it…! What will happen to them when a few hours later the counciltruck comes by to empty the bin…!! Happily somebody heard them cry and took them to the perrera where Scooby took them right away to bring them in safety…Please God, come down to see for yourself which monsters are among your creatures…!!’

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.

Victims of the thunderstorms hitting southern Spain – seeking refuge at Pepis
Horrendous storms battering Andalucia this week, including Pepis Dog Refuge. These are the latest arrivals at the gate, Jane Brian tells the story.
‘1/11/2015 – This may be an unusual combination but these two seemed to have teamed up together to keep each other warm due to the heavy rain and thunderstorms we had last night, it was one hell of a storm. We found them soaked and looking very sad and gave no resistance to being helped. Both females and so lovely. Drove them back to the refuge, dried them off and gave them a meal. They are now in a pen with soft bedding to warm them, safe and cosy from the rest of the bad weather we have forecast.

Valladolid perrera – Scooby to the rescue
From Cobie at Scooby Residencia Valladolid.
Meet puppy Joseph jr. rescued 25/8/2015 from the perrera in Valladolid by Scooby. Was he born with this or has he had 2 broken front legs without them being treated? Or maybe he was taken too soon from his mother, as usually, and is this because of malnutrition? We don´t know yet but if it can be fixed, Scooby will fix it and if not, we will find him a goodhearted family who is not looking for a `perfect`galgo but for one who needs a loving family because the heart is all that matters most!
We took 2 other galgos at the same time.
