  • 50 podencos need saving from Bullas, Murcia – as well as the galgos – Pro-Setter Spain needs help

    Murcia podenco 250 3 3 3 2012Here’s the original story about the 120 dogs in a compound in Bullas, Murcia. Seprona have denounced and all the dogs will be put to sleep if they aren’t rescued. Pro-Setter Spain is co-ordinating the rescue with other associations.

    I’ve just received news that there are 50 podencos which need saving – podencos are fabulous companion pets, especially for active people who like jogging, long walks, dog agility work. You can see photos of these hounds on Podenco Post. If anyone wants to donate or maybe find out how to adopt one of the dogs, contact Pro-Setter Spain or Galgos del Sol(links on original post).
