  • Galgo Guapo runs the Canicross in Murcia – please sponsor him!

    Tina & Guapo training Canicross 11 2010 300 Plea for sponsorship. Regular readers will know Tina Solera is another amazing volunteer working in Murcia to save abandoned and injured galgos, as well as helping at Los Infiernos refuge. Tina and her galgo Guapo are in training for the Canicross. Here’s what Tina says about it.

    ‘Its a 5km sprint on the 21 Nov and Guapo is the first ever galgo to run in this canicross race in this area, possibly all over Spain, although the secretary was not 100% sure about other parts of Spain. For Guapo and me, it is more about publicity for galgos than anything else but if we can kick some dalmation and huskie arses along the way, that will be great. Just hoping the ankle will hold up after twisting it the other day but so far so good. I am so excited…. Guapo, the first galgo to run it, let’s hope we can raise some eyebrows and change a few peoples’opinions about galgos, as well as raising money to pay for microchipping, vaccinating and sterilizing the galgos I rescue.’
