A house dog…. A hunting dog. Spot the difference?! ALL dogs need legal protection.
The Spanish government wants to exclude hunting dogs from the new animal protection laws.
Please speak out for the abused hunting dogs of Spain. They are the very same dogs as pet dogs! The same sentient beings who deserve to be cared for and who have rights to a good life. They need to be protected by the same laws.
Same Dogs. Same Law.
Find the 7 differences! If you don’t see any, it’s because THERE ARE NONE.
Let it be heard loud and clear: SAME DOGS, SAME LAW. It couldn’t be more obvious!
URGENT TRANSIT.
WE ARE ASKING FOR HELP!
He was beaten in a village because he was looking for food, Seprona arrived, picked him up and took him to Imusa – another hell for Rosario’s dogs. Transport urgently needed to get him out of there and to a vet.
Rosario is in Fuerteventura, Las Palmas Province, Canary Islands – not many rescue associations there!!

Dogs used in hunting are not second-hand dogs
The lawyer specializing in Animal Law, Dulce Aguilera, explains in this short video the reasons why hunting dogs should not be excluded from the Animal Protection Act. Conducts an excellent legal exposition that is also full of common sense. She is one of the biggest legal advocates of greyhounds, podencos, and in general all dogs intended for hunting (also obviously of other animals). We recommend your viewing.
Gal From Galgos del Sur, we ask the PSOE of Pedro Sanchez not to exclude hunting dogs from the future Animal Protection, Rights and Welfare Act.
To avoid this, we will use all the measures that are within our reach and provided by the legal order. Listen to our lawyer Dulce Aguilera from the office of Justice- Animals & Environment

From Cobie at Scooby Residencia Valladolid.
‘This very sweet galgo is blind and if that isn’t already bad enough, now he also has a bloodear/othematome in both ears! He has been operated on this rather painful issue in the Scooby hospital in Santovenia. He (Balu) has undergone the operation as a real hero! He does not like too much the Isabellina cap but what needs to be has to be and hopefully it won’t be needed very long. Well done to the vets and to our special blind boy Balu.’
Eventually Balu will be looking for a very special home, preferably with another dog.
We have a blind podenco and his housemate wears a bell on her collar. He is amazing the way he finds his way around using his nose and hearing.
Back in 1994 a stray greyhound turned up at our Suffolk home, in poor condition. From the tattoo in her ear, she was 7 years old but couldn’t trace the owner. She converted me to greyhounds and subsequently to galgos. This stunning black galga is in the UK for homing.
‘Our beautiful galga Molly is looking for forever home. She is currently in a foster home in Staffordshire and doing really well.
Molly is a friendly, happy girl, she in a home with several dogs, various breeds and gets on with them fine. There are no issues with people either. She just over 2 years old.
Sadly can’t live with cats but could live with older sensible children. She is spayed, vaccinated, chipped, blood tested and health checked.
If you are interested in offering her a home please follow the link below

Busy morning, 5 dogs had an appointment at the vet. Huge vet expenses for a small rescue – if you can donate, please click on this weblink.
– Sofia: this girl has made a huge step forward, her weight increased from 16kg to 20.60kg. Her treatment for Erlichia and Anaplasma has ended and the 28 days of Milteforan have also been completed. Today a new blood test was done to check if she also has Babesia.
– Cabriola: she too has already made enormous progress. Checkup was ok, a blood test was also done for Babesia. She has also ended her treatment for Erlichia and Anaplasma.
– Violetta: meanwhile has gained enough weight (25kg), finished her treatment for Anaplasma and is being spayed today (she tested negative for Babesia).
– Fiona: also ended her treatment for Anaplasma but unfortunately tested positive for Babesia. To avoid risks of internal bleeding she will only be sterilized after her treatment. She received step one of her treatment today and will remain in the clinic for observation until this evening.
And last but not least our crazy Pod
I cannot imagine a tiny galgo puppy in the middle of the road, alone!

Fuerteventura is one of the smallest islands in the Canary Islands, close to the coast of West Africa. Dogs, especially hunting dogs, have a hellish life. Thank goodness for Fuerteventura Dog Rescue. ad
