  • Galgos Rescue Almeria – new galgos babies arrive

    Video
    A couple of days ago Galga Seca gave birth to her little ones. Unfortunately, the fourth Puppy, Quattro, was stillborn.
    Mama licked it but she noticed it wasn’t breathing and put it aside. We have tried to bring him to life, but to no avail.
    After Quattro, 4 more puppies saw the light of day. Mama Seca did a great job and is tired from all the effort.

  • From a volunteer in a shelter to running a shelter

    Back in 2007 when I first travelled to Spain with L’Europe des Levriers to bring rescued galgos and podencos back to our French home for foster and adoption, Galgo News was started. One of the first people to contact me for help in publicising galgos in shelters was Tina Solera, then a volunteer who discovered an injured galgo needing help. It’s been interesting to follow the work of Tina since then with her association Galgos del Sol, to the shelter she now presides over. See the video on this weblink.

  • El Refugio de Brown in Badajoz, Extramadura – desperately needing help – donations, fosters, adoptions

    A desperate appeal from Lidia Martinez of El Refugio de Brown in Badajoz, Extramadura, a terrible region for hunting dogs.

    ‘I introduce myself I am Lidia Martinez and I am a teamer and collaborator of El Refugio de Brown in Zafra Badajoz, her situation is very hard,there are only two people managing more than 100 animals, at a cost monthly of € 2,000 or more in veterinary and residency expenses. They do not have their own premises, as the city council evicted them from its facilities and also residencia, where we take many animals from the perreras from Extremadura and Andalucia.

    Please we ask you to value the possibility of being part of these groups with all support, since all help is fundamental and donations and help is desperately needed.

    I leave you the link to their website so you can know them a little more and the links of their two groups.

  • Galgos Tickles and Jet make good recoveries – with Galgos del Sol

    Two amazing galgos, horrendously injured after the bloody galgueros chucked them out.

    Tickles the puppy is a survivor who was abandoned with two broken legs and left starving to death. By the time she came to us she was in shock with a low temperature. Her back leg was operated on and is thriving but the front leg is more complicated and likely won’t be operated as there is no op to help it. However shes still not using it all the time so decisions still need to be made. We are hoping she will get more comfortable with it with physio.

    From being paralysed after being run over, galgo Jet decided he has things to do

  • Galgo Moro – turning a badly injured galgo into a stunning Black Prince

    From Sandy at Galgos Rescue Almeria.

    ‘On 11 February, this boy, Moro, was freed from his predicament. This boy was so battered, damaged both physically and mentally, and yet he still had the strength to fight. Now barely two months later, we see a very different Moro.

    This boy has become a beautiful black pearl. This was possible thanks to your support, help, compassion….. and in particular our host family. Thank you fosterers Raymond Faber & Ilse for the good care and for fighting together.
