Malaga galga – foster home urgently needed
This young galga, about 6-8 months old, was picked up at a petrol station at Montoro (Cordoba) on the Madrid/Seville motorway! She was looking for food, hanging around the restaurant, whose staff confirmed it had been hanging around for a couple of weeks. She was very thin and, since being rescued, has spent a day and a half eating and sleeping! She’s in a foster home in Malaga but can’t stay there as the parents of the fosterer have said they will not have a dog in the apartment. So it’s urgent to find her a foster home and a forever family. She’s friendly and gaining in confidence. Please contact the fosterer Jesus. Tel. 608 590 685 and mail: ereduim 1@hotmail.com or Adela keu8@hotmail.com (Associations only)

Spanish Galgos injured, abandoned, mistreated, the Galgueros perpetrate the horror
I don’t know how the volunteers and associations in Spain keep their stamina and emotions, I am getting more emails in this year than ever since Galgo News started in 2007 and I am sickened by the sheer volume of galgos in perreras, abandoned in the street, hung from trees, kicked and stoned, abandoned to be injured on motorways……..it is simply unbelievable that the authorities in Spain remain blinkered about how this affects the international perception of Spain.
Here are some more stories……….help if you can.
