  • Cordoba & Valencia – galgos and podencos rescued

    Cordoba 11 galgos 2 250Two stories of more galgos saved – the first one is 11 galgos in Cordoba. The hunter was taken very ill and hospitalised and an appeal went out to help the galgos. Galgos del Sol took 2 and several small associations stepped in to help. The galgos are all ok.

    The second story is about a dozen or so galgos, podencos and other dogs including puppies abandoned in an empty swimming pool! You can see how deep it is by looking at the male volunteer with a couple of the dogs. It is believed they were left there by gitanos. They have all been rescued by Apadac association in Callosa de Segura, Valencia region. You can see more photos on their website.
