  • Support my Campaign – Maria Daines in Paris

    Maria Daines – here’s what she says on Pro-Galgo about animal cruelty.

    Clink on the link here and this one Maria Daines to Paris to add your name in support of bringing Maria Daines in concert to Paris.

  • Summer, sunshine, holidays……..

    BUT don’t let’s forget the galgos still waiting in the refuges to be rehomed outside Spain.

    DON’T forget the volunteers who still go to the refuges every day to take care of the galgos, and all the other abandoned dogs of Spain. They are such dedicated people, often paying for food and medication from their own pockets.

    YOU can still do something.

    SUPPORT my campaigns on Galgo News.

  • Women in Trouble while the Spanish sun is shining

    Galgo NewsWhilst the Spanish sun is shining, the problems for the galgos do not go away. Since the end of hunting in Spain in January, thousands of galgos have been killed, suffered torture, been maimed, abandoned, some are still suffering, starved in remote shelters, hidden in dark barns, bitches giving birth when they haven’t even the bodily strength to provide enough nourishment for themselves, let along half a dozen demanding puppies.

    Some are lucky enough to have been rescued by volunteers and taken to already overflowing refuges.

    But the galgos are not the only ones to suffer. The volunteers suffer too, picked on and targeted by their own countrymen.
