  • La Gran Familia, Seville – dogs needing help, petition to sign

    This is an appeal from Gran Familia in Seville.

    ‘We have come to the limits of our physical capabilities for the summer. We know that
    currently there are many urgent cases that we that we are unable to help because we have a multitude of expensse built up – vet fees, treatments, and we have to pay for kennels for the dogs as we have no shelter.

    We have four residence with dogs in kennels which cost us 720 euros per month. Below are the dogs in them. This is a cry for help for them and for us, we need to feed the and treat them on a daily basis and of course people want to charge – both the kennels and the vet – and the debt gets larger.

  • 5 puppies dumped in rubbish bins – life is cheap in Seville

    Seville puppy 1 05 2011 250 As I said recently, I simply can’t keep up with the appeal emails coming into my inbox. And I have been away for the past couple of days, collecting our next foster dog who is bound for his forever home in the UK in September, so now there are even more appeals. This one is just translated from Spanish via Google Translate without corrections. Sorry. But I am sure you will get the gist of the stories, and it will sicken you.

  • Update from El Albergue on galga dumped in a rubbish bin

    Update on the galgo dumped in a rubbish bin. ‘It is a female galga, and is very serious, especially from a strong blow to the head but still alive. We are waiting to see how it evolves and will soon need a CT scan (scanner) of the head. She is now hospitalized at a veterinary clinic. Please, if you know who wants to help with veterinary expenses let us know, because in our humble association we can do no more, but the cases that come to us are so desperate that we can not ignore them and look the other way. A hug and thank you very much for your interest.’
