July, and still the galgos are abandoned and loose. This one is at Irma Mykonos Road, between Lebrija and El Cuerva, Seville. She has a malformed front leg but can still walk, and her teeth are in a terrible state. Please help us before the gitanos take her for hunting again.

Some months ago, a lot of photos of galgos in Mairena were circulating on the Internet, including Galgo News. The information I had been given was that this was a killing station. It has since come to light that Mairena is in fact a perrera, ‘Protectora de Animales Y Plantas de Sevilla, which has contracts with city councils of cities and villages in the area, to retrieve abandoned dogs from the streets. Hunters also take their dogs there when hunting has finished.
This galga (who has been named Linda) gave birth to 10 puppies a couple of days ago, and all of them have been taken to Mairena. What sick person can do this. Look at the conditions in which she lies exhausted.
From Heaven to Hell is the definitive guide to the story of the Galgo Espagnol, from its history, character, diseases, European law, Spanish law and much more. A must-have book for all those passionate about the galgo.
The book has been translated into Spanish, Italian and French. All print copies are sold out.
