  • Galgo Phoenix with Galgos Rescue Almeria – hoping for a forever home

    GRA galga broken leg vet 400 1 6 223
    From Sandy at Galgos Rescue Almeria

    ‘At the beginning of July, these 2 hounds Tracy & Phoenix had an appointment at the vet for a general checkup and vaccinations.

    When these sweethearts arrived at Galgo’s Rescue Almeria they urgently needed immediate surgery. The traumatologist performed emergency surgery on Tracy’s upper leg on her right hind leg.

    With Phoenix it was the elbow on the left front leg. For him it was waiting patiently that he recovered completely and that his leg could be saved as he had been wandering around with his fracture for weeks.

    But today we look back with satisfaction on the work our vets at La Seda have done.

    Both sweethearts are now ready for the next step in their lives going to a forever home.

    ‘WE DON’T HAVE GOOD NEWS

    First of all, we want to apologize for not being able to update earlier, we know that many of you are worried, we were doing all

    A week ago we announced that we had managed to rescue the galguito of Pozo del Camino, with the help of the people of the area and the maximum dissemination of the case which made it possible to find him.

    He was taken right away to the vet where the first thing we were told is it’s female instead of male, so she is now named ANETA.
    ANETA, as you can see in the video, IS PARALIZED, due to a cervical injury and possibly aggravated by anaplasma (bacterial infection caused by a tick bite). Just have to do a CT scan to rule out another type of injury.

    GRA Gosbi 1 400 5 2023
    From Sandy Galgoslover

    ‘When you’re in the middle of it, you know that saving animals is a never ending story.

    Our help was asked to take care of this boy and now we have been able to welcome him, Gosbi, who was brought to our Rescue center in collaboration with Friends of Mazarrón Animals. Apart from an nasty old wound on his neck, he seems to be in reasonably good condition. Gosbi was immediately accepted and included in the pack.

  • Galga momma Georgia arrives at Galgos Rescue Almeria

    Georgia finally arrived.

    It took some time and organisation but finally Georgia arrived at Galgo’s Rescue Almeria.
    She was picked up off the street heavily pregnant by a volunteer of Protectora Animales USKAR and then gave birth nearly straight away.

    Georgia and her little ones were taken care of by a host family so that mum and the little ones could be followed up.
    Our help was asked if we could take care of the mum once the little ones were old enough and no longer needed their mum.

    We like to thank everyone involved in her rescue.

  • Galgos Rescue Almeria – help needed with vet bill

    GRA Phoenix400 5 2023
    From Sandy Galgoslover

    ‘Meet Phoenix, this boy was unfortunately the victim of a traffic accident which injured his leg. He was left to fend for himself and had to survive all by himself. Fortunately, rescue came and he now gets a new chance. He has now had surgery on his elbow. The surgery went well and there were no complications. Now it’s up to him to use his joint again.

    He had been walking around with his injuries for quite some time, so if he doesn’t spontaneously start stepping back on 4 legs, chances are he will lose his leg.

    This boy is asking for your support for his surgical procedure / rehabilitation. Vet bill over 1300 euros

  • Protectora Scooby Palencia – skeletal galgos on the street

    Scooby Palencia group with mastin 400 4 2023
    From Protectora Scooby Palencia

    7 greyhounds and a mastiff in deplorable conditions in Villalobón.

    Do you remember that not long ago Spain approved a law for the protection of pet animals in which hunting dogs are excluded because hunters do not mistreat them!

    The story begins with a phone call. Someone had seen some animals in a deplorable condition in a village of Palencia, again greyhounds as not, and a subsequent call from the Givil guard asking us for help to rescue them because they were very bad and needed immediate help.

    There we went, the vision was deplorable, some skeletal animals, totally full of parasites internally and externally.

    Please, to help them we need you to help us, become Teamer or make a donation that by the way are deductible.

    A couple of days ago Galga Seca gave birth to her little ones. Unfortunately, the fourth Puppy, Quattro, was stillborn.
    Mama licked it but she noticed it wasn’t breathing and put it aside. We have tried to bring him to life, but to no avail.
    After Quattro, 4 more puppies saw the light of day. Mama Seca did a great job and is tired from all the effort.

  • El Refugio de Brown in Badajoz, Extramadura – desperately needing help – donations, fosters, adoptions

    A desperate appeal from Lidia Martinez of El Refugio de Brown in Badajoz, Extramadura, a terrible region for hunting dogs.

    ‘I introduce myself I am Lidia Martinez and I am a teamer and collaborator of El Refugio de Brown in Zafra Badajoz, her situation is very hard,there are only two people managing more than 100 animals, at a cost monthly of € 2,000 or more in veterinary and residency expenses. They do not have their own premises, as the city council evicted them from its facilities and also residencia, where we take many animals from the perreras from Extremadura and Andalucia.

    Please we ask you to value the possibility of being part of these groups with all support, since all help is fundamental and donations and help is desperately needed.

    I leave you the link to their website so you can know them a little more and the links of their two groups.

  • Galgo Moro – turning a badly injured galgo into a stunning Black Prince

    From Sandy at Galgos Rescue Almeria.

    ‘On 11 February, this boy, Moro, was freed from his predicament. This boy was so battered, damaged both physically and mentally, and yet he still had the strength to fight. Now barely two months later, we see a very different Moro.

    This boy has become a beautiful black pearl. This was possible thanks to your support, help, compassion….. and in particular our host family. Thank you fosterers Raymond Faber & Ilse for the good care and for fighting together.
