New home for Galgo News
WE have had to move the Galgo News website to a new internet home, so that’s why we have been offline the past few days.
The site is still very much a work in progress, but we are slowly putting the pieces back together and normal service will be resumed soon.
As ever, thank you for your support over the years.

Galga Nera in foster in the UK – hoping for a forever home
In June we said farewell to our blind Podenco Bo, which meant we had space for another dog, a companion for Podenca Rosie. This time we decided to foster an older dog..
Project Galgo is an association in east England formed in 2020 which brings podencos and galgos to the UK for foster and adoption. They work with 3 Spanish associations, Fundacion Benjamin Mehnert, Galgos del Sur and Galgo Rescue Almeria.After a home check, we were accepted and advised that galga Nera would be coming to us from Galgos del Sur. She travelled by road with another half dozen galgos and a couple of podencos. It’s a long journey….

Marching in Spain 14 September – remembering the 32 souls in Azuaga Badajoz
From Plataforma NAC
Indifference kills.
This Sunday 14 September we raise our voices for those who could not defend themselves.
32 lives killed by starvation and neglect in Azuaga (Badajoz). They were not forgotten. It was not an accident. It was cruelty.
245 animal protection entities, including some international ones, unite to demand justice and that this massacre never happens again https://plataformanac.org/concentracion-azuaga-14…/
Dozens of dogs have died between suffering, indifference and silence. We cannot allow barbarism to go unpunished.
This Sunday, September 14, from 11h to 13h, in Plaza de la Merced (opposite the Azuaga City Hall), we will raise our voice for those who no longer have it.
Because their life matters. Because they’re not tools. Because neglect and abuse kills.
Come. Shout. Spread the word. Let it not be repeated.

PACMA Trying to get justice for the 32 in Badajoz – 14 september
32 dogs died of hunger and abandonment in Azuaga (Badajoz).They weren’t found in time, they didn’t get a second chance. They died slowly, silently, victims of indifference and a system that continues to allow mistreatment and impunity.
On Sunday, September 14, we have the opportunity to raise our voice for them and for all the animals who still suffer. We can’t look away.
Sunday 14 September 11:00 a 13:00h Plaza de la Merced (in front of the City Hall) – Azuaga
Because society no longer tolerates these atrocities.
Because their deaths cannot be forgotten.
Because we don’t want more invisible victims.
Come, join us, share and join the collective cry:
LET IT NOT BE REPEATED
