Here’s an educational video about the galgos in Extramadura, where my friend Mariangeles of FePaex works to save the galgos and other abandoned dogs – particularly around Badajoz. Mariangeles was at the Manifestation in Strasbourg.
My galgas Carmela and Sahara (with hubbie David) arriving at the European Parliament. I’m delighted to report that the Manifestation in Strasbourg organised by CREL had tremendous support from groups across Europe – over 1,000 people marching, with their galgos and podencos – and a borzoi and afghan. Just shows the strength of feeling against the Spanish hunters and their barbaric treatment they perpetrate on their hunting dogs, primarily galgos and podencos. Many hounds there bore the scars – where they had been cut up, beaten, burned, injured in road accidents, caught in snares – all walking on behalf of their ‘cousins’ still in Spain and still suffering. They came in family groups too, and one lady brought all 6 of her rescued galgos.
If you want to know more about the Manifestation in Strasbourg on 9th June 2012, contact your nearest delegate on the CREL website.
