Starving and trapped in a steel snare…RIP sweet galga
This is yet another heartbreaking story of cruelty to galgos in Spain…this time Jerez, Cadiz.This poor young galga was would in this skeletal condition with her foot caught in an illegal trap – as if she hadn’t suffered enough! The person who found her called the police who called the dog catcher who took her to the perrera…where she was put down. Not a nice story but probably the best for the galga to end her suffering. Who knows how long she had been starving and suffering tied in the trap.
Man is the most damaging and criminal beast with the animals on earth, they should receive no forgiveness.
