List of Galgo rescue associations for adoption

It’s not too late to volunteer at a Spanish rescue shelter for your holidays in 2026. Fundacion Benjamin Mehnert in Seville explains what is involved and how grateful the associations are for all the help they can get. Contact a shelter direct, they usually provide accommodation for volunteers too.

Dogs are pack animals, they prefer company, whether it is another dog, cat or human. Many suffer from separation anxiety. We have always had more than one dog, although now we are down to just one and take her with us most places we go.
So how long should a dog reasonably be expected to be left alone.
BATMAN – Small in size, black and white, with the sweet face of a puppy, Batman is a gentle, sensitive, and very kind galgo. The shelter is far too difficult an environment for him. Being small and delicate, he struggles in such an intense and competitive setting. He needs to leave as soon as possible and find a calm, protected home where he can live peacefully, relax, and feel safe.
Like many male galgos, Batman is affectionate, tender, and forms a deep bond with people. He is also good with other dogs. Batman needs peace, love… and a real chance.

This is the beautiful galga Dani with Protectora Scooby who is hoping for her forever home. If you have room in your home and heart for her, contact Scooby direct.
Her photo really pulled at my heart strings as she is the twin of one of my galgas, Carmela, who I adopted after she had spent 4 years at the hands of a hunter who maltreated her. It took over 2 years of her living with my galga gang before she was anything like a ‘normal’ dog. Very much loved and remember.
