From Galgos 112
Hi I’m Bono! I’m one and a half years old and they say I’m very friendly and loving. Still hard to believe what happened to me. I lived with my other galgo friends, we shared games and food in a pen. Every once in a while our owner would take us for a run in the middle of the olives, he would get very pleased if we chased the rabbits.
But one day, when I saw him coming to the pen, I thought it was time to go out to chase rabbits, as always I climbed a jump into the trunk of the car but it took longer to arrive than usual, my owner stopped the engine, as other times he opened the trunk and I jumped outside, but that day there was something strange, my owner, without looking at me, got back in the car, started and left leaving me there alone. I didn’t understand anything.

Many years ago when I was on the L’Europe des Levriers team, we visited La Bienvenida Protectora in Cuidad Real, 200km south of Madrid. There was a gypsy encampment not far away and the Protectora volunteers were terrified some of the galgos could get stolen overnight, even though broken glass topped all the shelter walls.
You will never meet a braver more noble soul than that of a Galgo. The Galgueros never feel shame at what they do. One day they will see, the Galgo español is far more worthy than they (the hunter) could ever be.
Just thinking about what these dogs go through and how many, not all, survive against all odds makes one wonder so many things. The ups and the downs, those we could save, those we couldn’t…
You and your babies are safe, sweety
From Galgos 112
This preciousness with so much sadness in her gaze, came to us to the limit of her strength, pregnant and exhausted. The next day, feeling safe, she gave birth to her 4 dead babies due to the misery and lack of care she has suffered. She’s been under treatment for the infection and is already recovering.
You have to take that sad look out of her, she must know love, life full of care and happiness.
We ask for foster or adoption for her, she is sweet, calm and when you pamper her she thanks them not moving from your side.
If you can help her, write with your address and phone number (essential) to info@galgos112.com
Thank you very much.

Miracles are ALWAYS FRUIT OF LOVE – Sanvi: When everything seemed lost…
When Sanvi came to us, her little body barely responded. Didn’t reflect, didn’t react… and for a few moments, we thought we were too late. But then something incredible happened: love, surrender, and hope began to take effect.
Thanks to the tireless care of our vets, the daily affection of caregivers, and above all the work of volunteers from all over the world, Sanvi began, very little by little, to wake up.

ADOPTIONS FALL IN WORRIING WAY
Dog adoptions are alarmingly falling despite the tireless work done by shelters and volunteer associations.
There are more and more animals waiting patiently to find a forever home. Many of them have not had it easy and even suffered mistreatment.
Introducing Aston, a young galgo who was abandoned and who, after spending several days on the street, was rescued. Now, he’s looking for a family that will love him and give him a new chance.
If you want to adopt Aston contact Rescatando Peludos (Spain 0034) 649 01 64 07
A couple of weeks ago I published about Galgo Roque, rescued by Galgos 112 in a terrible state.
Here’s the latest update, he’s doing ok.
Roque is getting better! Little by little and thanks to Lola his foster mom Roque is recovering, he takes a liver diet and as soon as the analyzes indicate that liver values recover, the treatment for Lehismania will begin. With the medicinal baths, the shells are falling off and he feels very relieved. Thank you Lola for taking care of him so well.
We adopted a blind dog. He is amazing. He uses his nose and ears to find his way around, uses a ramp to get into the car (he’s a bit heavy to lift). During my years with a French rescue association, we brought back to France for homing several tripod galgos and podencos. They never ceased to surprise me how they coped with three legs.
So this weblink takes you to an article about coping with a dog with disabilities.
