It’s a terrible time for hunting dogs in Spain as the hunting season will end this month and dogs are being abandoned and killed in their hundreds. This is the appeal from a couple of days ago from Bev Grubba.
‘FRIENDS, THESE ARE THE 4 GALGOS I’VE JUST TAKEN FROM BEING KILLED! THIS DOG LITERALLY HAD A NOOSE ROUND HER NECK TO BE HUNG! 2nd DOG IS ONLY 6 MONTHS OLD! BIG CRISI,S SO MANY BEING KILLED. SO NOW AGAIN BEGGING TO EVERY DOGLOVER , FRIENDS TO DONATE FOR RESIDENCE, VETS FEES, NEUTERS. SPONSORS WELCOME!
PAYPAL bevgrubba@hotmail.com (Galgos)’
Bev Grubba is based in the UK but works with a couple of rescues in southern Spain. Last week they worked on the rescue of 16 galgos in a terrible state which Galgos del Sol have taken…involving a 6 hour journey from Rota to Murcia. Now Bev and the rescuers are appealing for help again. Here’s the story.
‘We managed to get help from Galgos del Sol for the 16 galgos and they are all safe with a future. But on the 9th Jan there are another 16 needing help from the same area. A friend is taking 2, another friend taking 4 and hopefully another 2 to another friend.
So places needed for 8. We have a place in the UK for another 4 but unfortunately we don’t have the funds to prepare them. We will take 2 and raise the money for those but if we can get help for the other two we have a place for them. We have free foster until they are ready to travel so need to raise funds for vaccs, chip, passport and blood test and spaying or castrating for all of them, which will run into 4 figures.
Could you please help in any way, these dogs need our help, they are in a very bad place. We are waiting for photos but they are difficult to get. Bev’s PayPal is bevgrubba@hotmail.com for donations please.’
Some of the 16 galgos previously rescued were ill or injured.

‘Happy new year? Not for everyone
We would like to have started the year with some more pleasant news, but unfortunately we have to start it with another hard rescue, that of this greyhound that has found our colleague nuria lying in a ditch. The poor dog had been run over and despite the pain he must be in, he allows himself be manipulated to make a diagnosis without complaining and without making a bad gesture.
We will let you know how he goes on but as you see there is not a month when Scooby does not reach out to animals that need some kind of special treatment or surgery, that is why your help and collaboration is so important. So that you can give these angels the ability to continue living and having a family to take care of them and want as they deserve.
Please help us help them

Thank you
A situation has arisen where a Galguero is getting rid of his Galgos. Bev Grubba has arranged that 16 of them are going to Galgos del Sol in Murcia. It’s a 6 hour drive so 16 of them will be safe…not turned out on the street as the Galguero threatened!! That’s 16 arriving that need to be blood tested, vaccinated, sterilised etc and reports of some with broken legs. Galgos del Sol have no news on their health but just to prepare the basics will run into thousands. Can you make a paypal donation to finish off the year and help us?
Bev Grubba arranged the transport from Rota (Cadiz) to the shelter in Murcia. To donate to the transport, paypal bevgrubba@hotmail.com marking it galgos.
The more you delve, the more you find out about the appalling scale of exploitative abuse and downright cruelty perpetrated against greyhounds, galgos and other sighthounds around the world – in the US, UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Spain, Mexico, Argentina, Uruguay, South Africa, China, Canada…
“Greyhounds’ racing careers end by the time they reach five years old, sometimes due to age, but often because excessive training has led to injuries judged ‘not worth’ fixing. Dogs that outlive their ‘usefulness’ are either forced to breed, abandoned, hanged, or found dead at roadsides. At the end of the day, for galgueros, dog racing is a business and galgos are simply machines, a means to achieve an end. When the machine breaks, it is just thrown away.”
Wishing all of my readers a peaceful and joyous Christmas and a healthy, happy and prosperous 2019. Thank you all for continuing to read the News and supporting the appeals to help need hounds.
