Brexit has a lot to answer for, not thought out and making an unholy mess of countless things linking the UK to the rest of Europe. Travelling from the UK to Europe with your dog gets ever more complicated. You need to get a certificate a minimum of 10 days before you travel, and a certificate for every time you do!!

Hunting -solution or problem?
On the first weekend of February thousands of people took to the street to ask for the end of hunting.
Hunting is a violent activity, practiced by only 1% of the population and which, however, for months, hijacks our mountains and fields, sowing them with death and suffering and preventing us from enjoying these spaces, which become a deadly trap, for 99% of the remaining population.

‘So we just picked up this galga in the municipal area of the Station – Linares – Baeza.
A very serious case of animal abuse, it has the whole back in live flesh and in the first X-ray we have done, they have detected the femur completely separated from the body. Looks as thought she was hit by a vehicle and dragged along the road.
Right now she is stabilizing and they are going to do all the healing to see the severity of the damage. It is going to take a long time for the physical damage to heal, as well as the emotional ones.
WE ARE GOING TO NEED A LOT OF HELP – please donate

This beauty is Danna, the supermom who gave birth to her 5 puppies on the street and brought them forward. Now that they are all adopted and happy with their families, it’s her turn.
Danna is in residence waiting to go to a home with whoever wants to foster or adopt her. You don’t know what you’re missing by delaying it.
Danna, besides being beautiful, is sweetness in galga form. She loves cuddles and human contact. She is very well behaved and has a calm temperament. When he sees you with the strap in his hand he comes running to you to put it on and go for a walk. He can live with cats. Hopefully someone notices her soon.
Email info@galgos112.com for more information on how to foster or adopt Danna.
This week I had a message from a lovely lady whose Mum adopted a little podenco X from me 13 years ago. After a wonderful life in a loving home he developed cancer and has sadly crossed the rainbow bridge. RIP Bobby.
R.M. Drake from the book ‘ Dog People’
“What’s the hardest part about having a dog?” they asked, their tone casual, like it was just another question.
The hardest part about loving a dog is knowing that one day, you’ll have to say goodbye. From the moment they come into your life, you know their time is limited, but you push that thought away, pretending the day will never come. You invest your heart in them, share the quiet mornings, the playful afternoons, the long walks that seem endless. They become more than just a part of your life—they become a part of you.
