New Galgos in Scooby Valladolid – adopt a galgo
These lovely galgos are with Scooby Residencia Valladolid, hoping to find forever homes. These 2 beauties were rescued at the beginning of the week by Scooby from the perrera provincial in Valladolid. Taken there by their owner because they were not good for hunting, he said. It´s the same old song from the hunters, but happily these two are very good for sofa dogs. They are 2 boys, gorgeous, very sweet, not afraid. Lima has the white face and chest, Gustavo is the other one. Will make wonderful pets.
This is Tigressa. She’s an older girl, 7 years old, and been used as a breeding machine. She’s kind and gentle and has a lot of love to give. Towards the end of the video you can hear Cobie describing her character.
And this is Cali, a young galgo mix, under 2 years old. He was rescued from the campo, very afraid. You can see his is still nervous of people but gains in confidence and trust every day.
If you can offer any of these beauties a forever home, please contact Scooby.

Cuenca – 27 galgos arrived at Scooby – they need homes!
You will remember the appeal to save the Cuenca refuge being changed back into a perrera. Scooby have taken 27 galgos from there. They arrived on January 10th.
Cristina and Simonetta, an Italian volunteer, left at 6 in the morning to get the dogs to Scooby. So it was a double women power transport and it worked very well!
We hope we can soon release them into a new life as beloved pets and we count on you to make our hope become reality! See the video. They need money for food, vet fees and, of course, homes! http://www.scoobymedina.org -
Galga Gala – saved from a galguero murderer
Two pieces of news, which came up whilst I was stuck in the UK with hardly any computer contact.
Gala is a beautiful young galga found in a field in Andalucia with two deliberately badly broken legs – the left front and the left back – so she could not possibly get up and walk anywhere. Left by some bastard Spanish hunter to die a long and lingering and painful death. Luckily she was discovered and El Amparo took her to their vet where their vet operated on her to pin her legs back together again. Here are some before photos, and an incredible after video where she is walking with her legs splinted.

Scooby – give Divino a home for Christmas, buy Scooby 2013 calendar
This lucky boy is Divino, now safe with Scooby. Cobie says ‘DIVINO: Another galgo abandoned, hit by a car and then taken to the Valladolid provincial perrera where they wanted him to go and play on the other side of the rainbow bridge. Thanks to Scooby, who took him this morning out of that perrera, this stunning boy is 2 years old and not fearful. Has many years to play on the good side of that bridge for many, many years!! For adoption, contact Scooby.
Also, what about buying a Scooby 2013 calendar or virtually adopting one of their dogs as a Christmas gift to someone. They care for a phenominal number of animals and need all the help they can get.

24 reasons why Scooby enjoy picking up s..t!
It’s only the middle of October; the hunting season in Spain has now been in full swing for a month, and already the perreras are filling up with hundreds of galgos dumped there by the galgueros as ‘unfit to hunt’ – either because they lack the ‘killer instingt’ or they are sick and injured.
Scooby are hard at work trying to save many of these young hounds and Cobie writesfrom the kennels with the latest news.

Hunting with galgos in Spain – will it ever end?
From Cobie at Scooby Residencia Valladolid. This poor little galga named China was brought to the Scooby residencia by a galguero because she is obviously very sick. Surely she has leishmaniosis, very much hairloss over her whole body, long nails on her feet which makes walking very painful for her, her eartips completely bare, her back and tail almost bare and a look in her eyes which makes you want to cry for feeling so sorry for her.
The galguero injected her with all kinds of stuff and gave her tablets, God may know which ones, but of course, that did no good to her so he wanted to dispose her.
