    Cadiz galgo El Fantasma 200 car 2This beautiful boy is in the area of a gas station in El Fantasma, next to the toll of the Cabezas de San Juan and de Lebrija on the motorway Seville-Cadiz. The petrol station people say he’s been there about a month but he’s really nervous, won’t let anyone near him. Time is running out because he is going to get injured. Is there anyone in the area who could go and feed him each day, gain his trust to be able to catch him?

  • Huelva, Spain – injured galgo on the street desperately needing help

    Huelva galgo 250 20 8 2012This galgo has been on the streets of Huelva for some months, as it was difficult to catch. As you can see, its rear hind paw is injured and it has many woulds on its body, as well as ticks. A woman has been finally able to gain its trust, take it home and treat the ticks, but she cannot keep it there, as she has no room – she has 6 dogs and her son is against it.

    It desperately needs getting off the street and the paw and wounds treating. It lives with a mastiff, is submissive, calm but nervous of people. With the woman it now accepts caresses.

    Can anyone take this boy – they’ve named him Triston. Please contact Paloma urgently.

  • Galgo Bracken – my latest foster dog, looking for his forever family

    Bracken close up 250 This beautiful boy is Bracken. He was rescued earlier this year, waiting outside a supermarket with a badly injured front leg – the bone was sticking out. Even though he must have been in awful pain, he was still gentle and affectionate to those who took him in their loving care and back to a place of safety. The refuge vet operated on him and he was placed in foster car whilst his injury healed.

    A couple of weeks ago he came to join my canine family at my home in France. He had been reserved by a lady in the UK but circumstances have changed and she can no longer take him. So he is now looking again for his forever home.
