  • Scooby Galgo Adam hoping for a forever after

    Scooby Adam 400 7 2020
    From Cobie at Scooby Residencia Valladolid

    ‘If there is one dog with a lot of bad luck it is Adam. First he was abandoned by his owner and left in the perrera municipal of Valladolid where Scooby has taken him out of course, so that was a bit of good luck actually. Once here we took a bloodsample and it showed that he is leishmania positive and that means double bad luck because people seem to be more afraid of leishmania than for corona although one little tablet Alopurinol a day keeps the vet away. It is not contagious, not for other animals and neither for people and they can become really old with this.

    But now he probably has to wait a long time before he gets adopted IF he ever gets adopted because he’s a black galgo! And this super sweet and gorgeous handsome boy really deserves a lot better than being in a kennel for the rest of his life!.

    Please, anybody there to give him a warm and loving home and a small pill every day so he can finally enjoy his life? Info: internationaladoptions@scoobymedina.org‘

  • Galgos del Sol – saving the hounds in Murcia

    GdS puppy w 5 legs 400 7 2020
    ‘A family underground, a puppy with 5 legs and a mum thats been on the streets for years. A rescue that started Friday midday and finished sunday 1am, everyone exhausted.

    A huge thanks again to Maria Jose HM and her husband as always for the relentlessness in catching these dogs, to Kenny who’s here from Scotland and was ready to get his hands dirty and covered in ticks and to Manuel who came and helped late last night as unfortunately I didn’t feel well and had to leave.

    Must not forget to thank the on-site GDS team as without their dedication right now we could not take such an overflow of dogs, it’s a lot of hours everyday making sure they are all well and have all they need. It’s a huge amount of team work every time with something like this and we appreciate you all.

  • Galga Culebra safe with Galgo’s Rescue Almeria

    GaR Culebra 400 7 2020
    From Sandy Galgoslover in Almeria

    ‘Culebra is a 7-year-old girl, she came together with Ponderosa to GRA. Both girls come from the same hunter, and despite their undoubtedly tough past they are already very social, friendly and affectionate.

    Culebra is fully vaccinated and tested negative for Leish, Dirofilaria, Erlichia and Anaplasma.

    She has had a life of 7 years of hunger, fear and hardship, who wants to give her at least as many years of warmth, love and friendship?

    Meet Culebra and see more pix. Contact Galgo’s Rescue Almeria if you can offer her the forever loving home she deserves.
