  • Romeo, saved in April, in danger from a galguero, looking for his forever home.

    Romeo 003 20 09 2010 250 Help, please, anyone in the Torre Pacheco, Murcia, area or anywhere. Tina has been seeking a forever home for handsome galgo Romeo since she rescued him in April. Today she was told that tomorrow he will be given to a hunter!! You can imagine her distress! Common with a lot of the volunteers in the refuges…..saving the galgos only for them to be stolen back for the hunters! Here’s her appeal

    ‘I currently have Romeo in my garden. If I didnt take him today then tomorrow he was leaving with a hunter… i couldnt let that happen. OH MY GOD, husband is going to kill me. So far he is great with Guapo and has been good as gold, out of the refuge he is calmer. he has no microchip, no vaccines and is castrated.

    Please help me, I cant keep him but if he stays in the refuge tomorrow he will be with a galguero.’

    UPDATE Silvia in Valencia rushed to the rescue, Romeo is now on his way to her. If you can adopt this stunning galgo, please contact her.

  • Update on galgo Ruso, victim of a hit & run accident in Murcia

    Ruso xray ventrodorsal 250 200 Update on Ruso, the rough-haired galgo taken to Los Infiernos refuge in Murcia, where Tina is a volunteer. Because the refuge is in difficulties at the moment, we have been working behind the scenes at Galgo News and with GRIN in the US and Silvia in Valencia. Ruso travelled to Valencia where he has been seen by Silvia’s vet and x-rays taken of his injuries. He has a broken hip, which will require an operation.

    Silvia will be sending more news when it is available. Bless this poor boy, he has been in such pain, but now he will get the best of care. Tina has used donations so far to cover his transport and towards the vet fees.
