  • Valladolid perrera – Scooby to the rescue

    Scooby 250 3 25 8 2015From Cobie at Scooby Residencia Valladolid.

    Meet puppy Joseph jr. rescued 25/8/2015 from the perrera in Valladolid by Scooby. Was he born with this or has he had 2 broken front legs without them being treated? Or maybe he was taken too soon from his mother, as usually, and is this because of malnutrition? We don´t know yet but if it can be fixed, Scooby will fix it and if not, we will find him a goodhearted family who is not looking for a `perfect`galgo but for one who needs a loving family because the heart is all that matters most!

    We took 2 other galgos at the same time.

  • Murder in Linares, Jaen – write to your Spanish Embassy to protest

    ArcoNatura Linares: “battered and burned in Linares, this galga was found on 25th April 2012… This is what people do with a galga in Linares (Jaén).” A harmless galga, battered and burned alive. Volunteers Arconatura llevabamos were trying to catch her, had a place for her, knew she was pregnant. They went in search of her to try and catch her and this is what they found. There was no trace of the puppies, babies cut from her and taken for who knows what.

    This is the reality of Spain- we need the world to see how inhuman have people become!

    The Spanish government keeps saying these things don’t happen any more(!) but in our experience they happen just as much as before mainly because of the general indifference of both the authorities and the citizens and also the lack of strong laws to protect the animals.

    Please write to the Spanish embassy in your country, attach these photos and tell them you will not be visiting Spain until they protect the animals. Thank you. PACMA

    Write to, if you can foster or adopt: arqueologa83@gmail.com

    These pups are at high risk, their mom is a galga (still no pictures of her), she is lame in one leg. We assume she has run for food for her babies and
    goes in search of food leaving them alone with the risk that entails. Besides that, she goes through an area where there are many hunters and now it has started to rain.
