Galgos Rescue Almeria – callouts to rescue even on Sundays
https://www.facebook.com/reel/1177445137849126
From Galgos Rescue Almeria
Even on Sundays, the rescue centre never rests. When the phone rings, we often already know what time it is. Once again, a call for help. A small galgo girl… no longer wanted. Discarded. Thanked for her work, then cast aside as if she no longer had any worth.
Our GRA van left immediately, as it so often does, heading to the agreed location. There she stood. Small and unsure. Her eyes said it all: she had had enough. Years of obedience, running until her body could no longer cope, enduring humiliations she never deserved. And yet, when we approached her gently, her tail gave a tiny wag. A spark of trust… despite everything. For this little girl, a new adventure begins today. (more…)

Dog Fighting – an innocent victim used as bait – Spanish galgos suffer
Because galgos are not aggressive dogs, unscrupulous people use them as bait for dog fighting. This galguita found a few days ago, is young, full of wounds and has a broken tail.
There currently seems to be some uncertainty as to who actually has the galga,

Galgos in danger, Cordoba perrera and Badajoz … the holocaust continues
If a galgo won’t hunt, then the galguero gets rid of it. Some just dump them anywyhere, others will pass the dog onto another hunter…it doesn’t want to hunt, so it gets passed on to another hunter…..this is what has happened to one young galgo. This isn’t a photo of her, we don’t have one yet, just the appeal, can anyone squeeze her in somewhere to stop her ending up abandoned or in Badajoz perrera. garrapateracoherente@hotmail.com
And 7 galgos in Cordoba perrera, on death row – male and female, from 1-3 years old.

More abandoned Cordoba galgas and a lame puppy
Cordoba again, yet another galga and puppies. Here’s the report from El Arca de Noe Cordoba.
’23 Dec. I was driving along a road going to a store on an industrial estate when a galga crossed my path, her teats were very swollen. I had to brake hard so as not to hit her. She ran into the rough ground on the industrial estate, and I then saw she was not alone, there was another galga with her, and a puppy – the puppy is lame.

El Arca de Noe, Cordoba – condemning the hunters – shame on these men!
I try not to post really bad pix on GN because I don’t want to turn people away from reading about life for the galgos and volunteers in Spain. But I make no apologies for posting these photos of Lia, luckily she is with El Arca de Noe in Cordoba. Here’s the story and appeal, in the words of the volunteer.
‘WE HAVE RESCUED LIA AND SHE IS HOSPITALISED. SHE HAS LOST THE WILL TO LIVE, THE WOUND IS HORRIBLE, SHE IS BLEEDING FROM HER VAGINA A LOT. SHE CANNOT STAND UP. LIA WAS LETTING HERSELF DIE BUT WE REACHED HER IN TIME, ALTHOUGH WE DONT KNOW IF SHE WILL CONTINUE TO LIVE. BUT WE ARE TRYING AT LEAST.
