  • PACMA – need politicians to fight for animal rights in Spain

    PACMA logo 400
    From PACMA we want to inform you that we are going to file a criminal complaint following the regrettable events that occurred on Friday 03/01/25 at the Granada Royal Herald parade, where a man kneed an ox in the face in front of dozens of children.

    Many people have asked us how it is possible that there are still so many animals involved in these shows: the answer, although painful, is that the new animal protection law excludes practically all animals that are not dogs, cats or ferrets and as long as they are not for hunting or work. This excludes oxen, camels, horses, sheep, cows and other animals unfairly called “production animals”.

    We need politicians committed to animals

  • Greyhounds in Need – supporting 112 carlotta galgos

    Greyhounds In Need logo 400
    Greyhounds in Need was founded by Anne and Arthur Finch in 1998 to highlight the plight of racing greyhounds and find forever homes for them. Anne was also involved in the closure of the Barcelona racetrack and homing the 700 greyhounds there. Now Greyhounds In Need focuses on helping Spanish galgos. Here’s the tale of how they helped 112 carlotta galgos back in 2019.

    We were recently able to visit Charlotte and Dioni at 112carlottagalgos in Malaga. They had moved premises since our last visit so we were all excited to see their new finca. It was larger than their previous finca but Charlotte and Dioni have worked hard to make it a lovely place for the galgos to live and be cared for until they are ready for adoption.
