Galgo Carlos – looking for his forever home in the UK
This is Carlos, who sadly lost one of his hind legs as a result of being shot. He is looking for his forever home in the UK. Here’s what Valerie Wood of Ibizan Hound Rescue says about him.
‘Carlos is a lovely boy, very nervous of strangers but once he knows people his so soft and loving.
Carlos was “rescued” by an Irish man who found him on his land. Carlos had been shot in the hind leg by hunters. The Irish man did his good deed by taking Carlos to the vets and saying that if they performed surgery he would pay for it and that Carlos was now his dog. Sadly Carlos was never collected from the vets and the bill was never paid.
