  • Jerez perrera, Cadiz – another dozen galgos dumped yesterday!

    Good news about the second batch of galgos in the Jerez perrera. 6 are going to Valencia for care and rehoming, 4 are going to Malaga for care and rehoming and two are going together to their forever home in the UK. Holly and Faith, as they have been named, became bosom buddies when they were both rescued by Dioni. Their EU passport is now being prepared and then they will travel together into quarantine kennels in the UK, where their adopting family (who have been involved in greyhound rescue for decades) will be able to spend time getting to know them, preparing them to join the rest of their canine family.

  • Starving & dying galgos and puppies – Cuencanimal need help with vet fees

    Starving puppy Cuencanimal 08 2010 250 And another story of galgos and some other breeds found in appalling conditions. This is the story from Cuencanimal.

    We request your assistance because, whilst looking for land to be able to finally build a refuge supported by several rescuer associations, we found a awful case. Some 27 dogs in a regrettable state, there are several deaths from malnutrition among the pups, and there are animals with mange, wounds, you cannot imagine….

    We do not have a refuge, and that’s why we cannot assume this case alone. We took out 2 pups, one of them died because of weakness.

  • Pro-Galgo urgently need help – please donate

    Randy Pro-Galgo 08 2010 300 Does this break your heart or what? To see a beautiful affectionate loving galgo in this state! Luckily Pro-Galgo has come to his rescue. You can read his story and that of another galgo, plus a little Yorkie (whose owner died) on their website.

    Pro-Galgo still has 5 of the 28 Jerez galgos in kennels, which costs, and now they have vet bills for these three dogs. They are out of funds. Please, if you can contribute towards any of these costs – 700 euros will cover the fees for microchipping, vaccination, castration – and a dental job on the Yorkie – donate through their website. However small the amount – even £10 or $10 or 10 euros – it will be greatly appreciated.
