Seville & Huelva – galgas on the streets – in danger…
Abandoned galgos and podencos everywhere, every year now it gets worse – there are thousands in the perreras already, due to be killed – or the galgueros say to volunteers, ‘take this dog or I will kill it’. How do the volunteers cope?!
Here is a young galga abandoned in Seville province, in danger on the streets – or becoming pregnant! Contact ..CONTACT GEM…SEVILLE 679106878… THANK YOU!
And this beauty too.
She’s in a village in Huelva, she’s been there all summer. She had puppies which have disappeared – stolen, killed, who knows. She was very fearful but a person in the village has been feeding her and now it would be possible to catch her. But there is no where for her to go.

Galgos Ethique Europe – Written declaration for Galgos all over Europe
The latest publication from Galgos Ethique Europe. Please sign up for their newsletter and keep abreast of their work.
A written declaration for Hounds all over Europe
Published 26 Novembre 2012 par Collectif Européen pour la Protection des Lévriers
We have been quite busy this summer. Twice we have met with mrs. Michele Striffler, Member of the European Parliament and vice-president of the Eurogroup on the Welfare of Animals.
Last July, via their attachés, we presented Mrs.Striffler and Mrs Durant the two questions that we still see as an option after the questions posed by Mrs. Durant in 2010, on request of Galgos Ethique Europe, and the question posed in October 2011 by Mrs. Kartika Liotard, on request of Greyhounds Rescue Holland. The last request was supported by a number of European organisations. A complaint on behalf of citizens is premature, given the subsidiarity principle with regards to domestic animals, especially dogs and cats, and the obstacles found in the Spain on this matter.

HAPPY 5th BIRTHDAY Galgo News
(My galgas Sahara & Carmela sharing a bed today!) Yes, it’s 5 years today since my webmaster Craig and I launched Galgo News. We’ve travelled a long way in those 5 years – published many different stories – happy stories, sad stories, rehomings, appeals, letter-writing campaigns – whatever has been sent to me, I’ve read and published most of it. I’ve only had to remove one post, where people commenting then launched a personal attack on two volunteers in Spain. I won’t countenance libel, so the post was removed. I still have it on file, as the subject matter is important, and one day it may raise its ugly head again.
I’m grateful to all of you lovely readers who have bought copies of my book to learn more about the plight of the galgo; you’ve responded well to appeals for donations towards vet care for sick and injured galgos, and many of you have offered forever homes to hundreds of the galgos featured on Galgo News and associations I publicise. You are marvellous and I feel sure that the volunteers and associations feel the same.

Scooby on the track of the galgos of Cigales, Valladolid
News just in from Scooby. Seprona entered a barn in Cigales, Valladolid, where over 50 galgos were kept. They removed 13 of them, aged between 6-12 months, as they did not have microchips. The dogs were taken to the perrera in Valladolid to be chipped, and were then returned to the barn. Because the other galgos were chipped, Seprona know who the owner/s are. Fermin Perez is investigating the matter and the conditions in which the dogs are kept.

Seville galga – at risk in a galguero village
Appeal is out to try and rescue this poor galga, in a village in Seville province, in an industrial area near a gitano camp. I’ve asked my friends at Prodeanse, as it sounds as if the galga is in the area near them – which is a hellhole village for galgos. Fingers crossed for the galga.
