Is there a right time to rehome your dog?
Sometimes – due to changing circumstances – a dog needs to be rehomed. It could be the owner has died, moved into a care home, is too ill to look after the dog and the family can’t/don’t want to take on the dog, becomes homeless. It can heartbreaking for the owner and the dog is confused because it doesn’t understand what is happening.

Galgos del Sol 2021
Back in September 2010 I was contacted by Tina Solera, a volunteer with Los Infiernos shelter in Torre Pacheco, Murcia. There was an injured galgo and she asked if I could help her with him by posting an appeal on my Galgo News, which I created in 2007. A while later she took on he renovation of a few kennels owned by a friend of hers, and I sponsored one of them in my late Mother’s name. Tina has come a long way from there, still working hard saving podencos and galgos.
From Tina.

We are therefore, in conjunction with the authorities and our trusted partners, undertaking an emergency operation to co-ordinate the safe transition of these animals into our care.
This is a difficult and challenging situation for all concerned and our absolute priority, as always, is for the welfare of the animals.
