  • More abandoned Cordoba galgas and a lame puppy

    Cordoba galga & pup road 2 250 12 2011Cordoba again, yet another galga and puppies. Here’s the report from El Arca de Noe Cordoba.

    ’23 Dec. I was driving along a road going to a store on an industrial estate when a galga crossed my path, her teats were very swollen. I had to brake hard so as not to hit her. She ran into the rough ground on the industrial estate, and I then saw she was not alone, there was another galga with her, and a puppy – the puppy is lame.
