Spanish hunting dogs need protection by law
PPP Hunting
Collaborative video between Aula Animal and Plataforma NAC
Why are hunting dogs not included in the animal welfare law?
Dogs, who are sadly used for hunting, are not included in the animal welfare law because the hunting lobby has exerted strong political pressure to prevent them from having rights.In this way, they remain completely unprotected so that hunters can continue to use them as mere tools in their hunting practices.
Why are millions of wild boars, roe deer, and rabbits raised annually to repopulate hunting grounds?
Millions of species intended for hunting are raised annually in hunting farms so that hunters have enough prey to kill.These hunting farms carry significant risks and negative consequences for animals and the natural environment.An argument in favor of hunting is that it helps control populations of wild boars and rabbits.Hunting does not help control animal populations; on the contrary, it is the hunting industry itself that produces artificial overpopulations causing imbalance in wild populations. -

Galgos Rescue Almeria – callouts to rescue even on Sundays

From Galgos Rescue Almeria
Even on Sundays, the rescue centre never rests. When the phone rings, we often already know what time it is. Once again, a call for help. A small galgo girl… no longer wanted. Discarded. Thanked for her work, then cast aside as if she no longer had any worth.
Our GRA van left immediately, as it so often does, heading to the agreed location. There she stood. Small and unsure. Her eyes said it all: she had had enough. Years of obedience, running until her body could no longer cope, enduring humiliations she never deserved. And yet, when we approached her gently, her tail gave a tiny wag. A spark of trust… despite everything. For this little girl, a new adventure begins today. (more…)

MRW – transporting animals around Spain
MRW is an animal transport company in Spain which is used by many refuges and association to move animals from perreras, refuges etc. They are used in preference to private transport companies because they are cheaper.
This is a translation of an article in the Spanish press.
MRW mistreats the animals they transport. Seprona has verified this information.
Arca Madrid says that is a scam to get money. Refugiocan, in Valencia, has also verified it. They say that:
As Protective Association we corroborate what Seprona says.
