  • Galgos and Podencos – galgueros deny cruelty to these hounds!

    Meva 1
    This album is the continuation of this one:
    https://www.facebook.com/meva.galpodi.3/media_set…

    Above all, make it clear that this album did not intend to hurt anyone, nor, of course, morbidly wallow in the terrible hardships and mistreatment of galgos (Spanish greyhounds) and podencos.

    After some hesitation, I decided to gather this series of images as a response to all those who deny and conceal this reality, trivialize it by saying that cases of abuse and neglect of these dogs are just a few, as well as that these are perpetrated by individuals who steal the dogs from their original owners. In the sight of all these pictures, it does not look like we are talking about “4 cases”, as has been said, does it?

    A picture is worth a thousand words, and, unfortunately, there are many images here. There exist many more; these are just the ones that I myself I have been finding, without especially looking for them, throughout a not very long time of dissemination of galgos and podencos in need of a home.

  • Ann’s Canine Care, Malaga – another needy soul saved off the street

    Ann MP galgo 1 400  2 11 2019
    From Ann Marie Payne of Ann’s Canine Care in Malaga.

    ‘We’ve had yet another emergency off the streets today. No chip, no name, so no justice for him. A piece of trash to his hunter/breeder. I’m beginning to hate them all with a vengeance. Don’t anybody ever tell me there are good hunters/ breeders. THERE REN’T ANY.

    This gorgeous boy was so exhausted he walked straight to his bed, got in and fell asleep. He has an injury to his leg/paw, not sure which yet but, he will be seen by the vet on Monday.

    Please join our teaming group for just 1 euro per month

  • Protectora Scooby – saving the needy hounds

    Scooby galgo 1 400 10 2019
    ‘Elderly dogs, with tumors, with Leishmania or extremely thin… When we rescue animals we do it because they need help and because we’re worried about the fate that might await them without it.

    We don’t choose them for their color, size or age, nor do we care if they’re healthy or sick … We don’t select which dogs to help, we don’t think about whether they’re more or less beautiful or sociable, we don’t even consider if they will be easily adopted or if no one will want to give them a home and they’ll have to spend the rest of their lives with us in the shelter. None of that matters …

    In Scooby we are animal lovers and our main goal is to help the ones most in need as they also deserve the best life possible.

    (Photos below of some of the 48 dogs recently rescued in Murcia)
