  • Protectora Scooby Newsletter 4 – Kennel Renovations – we need funds and builders

    From Fermin Perez.

    Kennel Renovations

    You may recall from our autumn bulletin we appealed for financial help towards kennel repairs. We have not been able to do the work because we failed to raise the funds. In addition there is a lack of available, skilled bricklayers in our area. It is pretty much impossible to find labour to do the job and within a reasonable estimate (€5k).

    Our appeal remains and if you are able to donate towards it, we’d be very grateful. We’d love to complete the renovations in the spring when it is less rainy. We desperately need to repair brickwork, smooth the floor area to make cleaning easier
    and safer.

    And now a rehoming story – not a galgo but an example of the work Scooby does.

  • Animal Rescue Spain – cold weather coats needed

    Animal Rescue Spain 400 12 2022
    From Puntanimals

    ;The polar cold has suddenly arrived in Spain and we need your help. The authorities warn of a sharp drop in temperatures and, as you know, fuel for dog radiators has doubled in price. We also need blankets to make coats, which you can buy and we can pick up or directly send us your help. Everything adds up and everything counts, to shelter the Spanish abandoned dogs.

    Thank you!

    Will you help us with a donation for abandoned dogs in Spain?

  • Puntanimals in Huelva – rescue from a rubbish dump!

    We are an Animal Protection Association with a small shelter located in Punta Umbria, Huelva. We rescue street animals to offer them a second chance.

    A few days ago we learnt that the police had picked up a mother with her daughter from a polygon in a deplorable state of health. The mother unfortunately didn’t manage to survive so much pain and abandonment.

    But the little one has fought for her life after being discharged from her hospitalization at @hospitalveterinariofauna, she continues to recover in the shelter and getting more beautiful and stronger.

    SURY – This is how we baptized her. She is a love, she is affectionate even though life has only been cruel to her. It is amazing how resilient and strong animals are. You are a champion without a doubt

  • Galgos Rescue Almeria – galga with a broken leg

    Galga broken leg 1 400 11 2022
    From Sandy Galgoslover at Galgos Rescue Almeria.

    A couple of days ago this young galga was picked up in Baza with a broken leg and we were asked if we could take her. She was taken to the vet to make X-rays of her paw. She spent the night at the vets and then was brought to us.

    She has been for a check-up with our vet, microchipped, has a European passport and a blood sample was taken. The results were negative for all Mediterranean diseases except Anaplasma. Alma will receive treatment with Doxiciclina for 28 days and an appointment has been made with the traumatologist.

    We would like to thank Eli for contacting us and Raymond Faber for picking her up in Baza.

    All help and support is welcome as her operations and medication is going to be expensive.

  • SOS Galgos Barcelona – another abandoned and injured galga saved

    SOS Galgos, Anna Clements and her vet Husband, is one of the older galgo rescue associations which I had the privilege of visiting many years ago. Here’s the story of a recent rescue.

    ‘Zafra just arrived at SOS GALGOS.

    A month ago we asked you for help for a run over galago that couldn’t move, they had abandoned it, invisible, despite its suffering. Another extreme case that we undoubtedly took care of. Zafra needed an emergency surgery or she would become paralysed and the response was INCREDIBLE.

    Now after the surgery and more than a month of extreme care to keep her prosthetic from moving we want you to see how our puppy is doing. Now zafra can find a family and forget the hell she lived through.

    THANK YOU for the donations, for all you do Teamers and partners to continue to help.
