A plea from a member of Galgos France, driving through Extremadura. An injured galgo needing help. Details here.
‘I am writing because I do not know who to ask for help to a young female brindle galgo I saw when crossing over from Spain in Extramadura. We were heading to the national V E90 towards Madrid. We stopped for refueling at service area DONAIRE GP-LA ESTRELLA long after Villamesias Merida.
Message just in from Seville.
Good afternoon, We need help to catch a galga in Umbrete, Seville. The galga was abandoned about two months ago, but in recent weeks someone has been beaten or has run over and God knows. The fact is that the galga is now injured, has a leg hanging and getting worse by the minute. We need help to capture the galga…
This little galgo pup is Tigre, who had a gangrenous rear end; taken into the care of Pro-~Galgo, he is how ready for his forever home. Read the update here. Bless everyone involved in his care.
This is the latest on the starving horse in Cadiz.
‘Hello, The horse is being fed by us until the authorities . Thank you very much. Greetings.
Hola,
El caballo está siendo alimentado por nosotros hasta que se encarguen las autoridades competentes.
Muchas gracias.
Saludos.

i’m still struggling with an immobile arm – 3 more weeks to go – i’m so frustrated! so this is a short post to link to youtube video of saving the puppies. they are with baasgalgo in Madrid. Sadly mama galga couldn’t be caught
a light-hearted note – we went to a dog show last weekend. foster dog bracken won ‘best hunting dog’ – his uk passport is ready early september – and sahara and i won ‘dog looks most like its owner’ – poor sahara limped into the ring wondering why her leg was bandaged!
bracken was rescud injured by galgos del sol, sahara was saved from the cordoba killing station by l’europe des levriers – both under 2 years old at the time.
(still typing with one finger!)
look at this poor soul, her back leg useless. luckily Silvia of Galgo Connection Spain found a pocket in which to squeeze her….
As you know, I am not able to type much, as my right arm is immobile after a shoulder operation. I simply cannot keep up with the appeals which come in. But this is one from El Arca de Noe in Cordoba, which I have used a translator to be able to read in English. So please excuse that I haven’t been through it to correct the English, as I can only type with one finger!
UPDATE 28/7/2011 Baas Galgo now have 3 babies in Madrid, but the mama still hasn’t been caught
‘It is possible that we soon will leave on a bus or a plane and we leave to another country or city to continue not holding these things, because it is unbearable living with this.
These 2-month old galgo puppies were found abandoned – covered in cigarette burns – in Guadalajara
