  • 15th November 2011 – Badajoz, galgo found hanged

    Hung Galgo Badajoz 15 11 2011 190I make no apologies for posting this photo. On 15th November 2011, this galgo was found hanged by schoolchildren who went hiking in the SIERRA DE TENTUDIA, Badajoz, Extremadura.

    The hunters still claim they do not hang dogs, that all reports are exaggerated. The truth is out there on the Internet for the world to see – THEY LIE

    Pray for the soul of this poor galgo, that its suffering is at an end. Curse the bastard who did this and brings shame on a country where so many brave people work to stop the cruelty, and whose lives are threatened if they expose the truth.

  • Galgos, dumped, abandoned, unwanted, and hunting has only just started!

    Scooby galgos in perrera 170 10 2011The dumping of galgos continues, increasing now as the hunters abandon the dogs which don’t make it as hunters, breeding bitches etc. Cobie of Scooby asks (on Facebook) ‘Why do they bring them to a perrera where they will be killed after 21 days and not 40 km. further to Scooby where they are safe?? I will never understand that. Anyway, this morning I took from the perrera in Simancas these 3 female beauties which can be taken of from the deathlist now and certainly will be adopted very soon to live a happy life with a loving family. They are young, beautiful and very, very sweet!’

    And 8 more in the Gesser killing station, Cadiz; some of them have been reserved. But you can see from the pictures how frightened they are, not understanding why they are there. I suppose the only good thing we can say about the galguerros dumping them at the killing station is that it is better than hanging them, dumping on motorways or dropping down wells.
