One of the articles in my book on the Galgo Espanol is about theft of galgos. Now you might wonder why ever anyone would steal a galgo when they can be picked up for nothing on the street. This story will explain. Thank you to Greyhounds Rescue Holland for the translation. Watch the video here.

Spanish galgos are already being stolen for hunting next month!
Everyone in Spain either working in shelters/refuges or who has adopted a galgo – be warned, there is news already of loose galgos in Murcia being taken by the gitanos/galgueros ready for hunting starting next month….galgos in unattended shelters -(the majority of shelters don’t have anyone there overnight) are particularly at risk – and if the thieves are challenged, they are likely to become aggressive.
Pray for every galgo, rescued or still on the streets.
