  • Project Galgo – Senior galgos hoping for forever homes

    HELP US GET OUR SENIORS OUT OF THE IMPOSSIBLE HEAT!

    Please, this is becoming urgent. Duna and Rafi, our bonded seniors as well as other seniors are desperate to get out of the intense heat. Heat makes shelter life even harder for them and puts all sort of strain on their bodies.

    We have space available on transport in July and August and we want as many seniors on it as possible. But we cannot take them without your help!

    You know the tragic stories of Marifel and Magdalena, how it was too late for them. We cannot let that happen again without fighting to save these seniors.

  • Galgo Bono with Galgos 112 – hoping for a forever home

    From Galgos 112

    Hi I’m Bono! I’m one and a half years old and they say I’m very friendly and loving. Still hard to believe what happened to me. I lived with my other galgo friends, we shared games and food in a pen. Every once in a while our owner would take us for a run in the middle of the olives, he would get very pleased if we chased the rabbits.

    But one day, when I saw him coming to the pen, I thought it was time to go out to chase rabbits, as always I climbed a jump into the trunk of the car but it took longer to arrive than usual, my owner stopped the engine, as other times he opened the trunk and I jumped outside, but that day there was something strange, my owner, without looking at me, got back in the car, started and left leaving me there alone. I didn’t understand anything.

    From Galgos 112

    This preciousness with so much sadness in her gaze, came to us to the limit of her strength, pregnant and exhausted. The next day, feeling safe, she gave birth to her 4 dead babies due to the misery and lack of care she has suffered. She’s been under treatment for the infection and is already recovering.

    You have to take that sad look out of her, she must know love, life full of care and happiness.

    We ask for foster or adoption for her, she is sweet, calm and when you pamper her she thanks them not moving from your side.

    If you can help her, write with your address and phone number (essential) to info@galgos112.com

    Thank you very much.

    From Galgos 112

    There are some especially bloody cases, and it’s not just when they arrive injured or broken, but also for other reasons.

    For example we have Celina, who has just joined the family of Galgos 112.

    At 11 years old Celina has been abandoned and has arrived to us with several injuries such as being bitten by another dog. They don’t have much importance and they are almost healed, but Celina is very sad, she doesn’t understand where she is or what happened to her. Being in a residence surrounded by unknown dogs doesn’t help either…
