Costa Blanca – judge against animal cruelty – so why not against the galgueros and gitanos?!
Shame that Seprona won’t take similar action against the bastard galgueros and gitanos who keep their animals in worse condition than this lady. Why? Because many of them are bloody hunters too!

Pig-sticking – reintroduced into Spain
Yet another sick form of hunting recently re-introduced into the Spanish way of life! I am sure these people are in the minority, that the majority of Spanish people would be pleased to see the end of barbaric forms of animal torture, such as this one – as bad as bull fighting!

The Shame of Spain – what the tourists don’t see
Two very sickening stories, both from Andalucia region, a veritable hell hole for galgos and podencos. The first one was in Jaen, where a starved and dying galgo lay on the pavement whilst people walked by. No-one helped. It was too late by the time the person who took the photo found him.
The second story is from La Linea shelter, down near Gibralter, where Peter does amazing work helping the abandoned dogs. Peter has been visiting a place called Los Junquillos where there were reports of a totally neglected and skinny galgo. When Peter got there, he found that someone even had smashed his feet. The vet had to take out some bones from the feet and now the galgo is on medication for the pain and infection. How many barbaric people live in this little town..dear lord! La Linea
WARNING – UPSETTING PHOTOS
