We’ve been following the story of galgos in Portugal – horrendous conditions in which they survive – and the team of faithful volunteers who work tirelessly to make the lives of these dogs better, against insurmountable odds.
Ines explains the situation more fully.
‘I must clarify some details on this shelter, it is not a registered charity, it is simply Teresa, an animal lover that happens to help every stray dog she finds. She treats, neuters and vaccinates them and finds them good homes. Teresa has a brilliant record, this year alone she rehomed over 60 dogs by herself into loving families, so I and another 2 women volunteered to help her fundraise and look after the dogs.
