Valladolid perrera – Scooby to the rescue
From Cobie at Scooby Residencia Valladolid.
Meet puppy Joseph jr. rescued 25/8/2015 from the perrera in Valladolid by Scooby. Was he born with this or has he had 2 broken front legs without them being treated? Or maybe he was taken too soon from his mother, as usually, and is this because of malnutrition? We don´t know yet but if it can be fixed, Scooby will fix it and if not, we will find him a goodhearted family who is not looking for a `perfect`galgo but for one who needs a loving family because the heart is all that matters most!
We took 2 other galgos at the same time.

Here is a lovely story about a Spanish Galga who is doing a similar job – but this time in New Mexico in a prison.

Ban bullfighting in Spain…I doubt it with this news!
Probably why they won’t ban it…nor any of the other cruel animal ‘sports’! Sick twisted minded males poncing around in sparkly garments making out they are ‘macho man’ when in fact they are pathetic puppets dangling on strings.

Puerto Mogan, Canary Islands…what the tourists don’t see
Podencos are the hounds used for hunting in the Canary Islands. Their life is as tough, if not more so, than for the galgos and podencos on mainland Spain. 85,000+ podencos in the Canary Islands. This is just one of the perreras. And you think the perreras in Spain are hellish!
