  • DJ-Imba Association – caring for the oldies

    An association which looks after handicapped, old and ill dogs, especially greys, galgos and podencos. http://www.dj-imba.com Click on ENGLISH or FRENCH for translation.

    Dutch founder Betty says ‘I have been involved in the fate of the greyhound and galgo since 1999 when we adopted our first galga. I have had an organisation in Holland to rescue and help the dogs in Spain. In 2005 I moved to France in order to help more dogs. Foundation Dj-Imba now homes 14 dogs of which 7 greyhounds/galgos (the oldest 18), 5 podenco’s and 2 chinese crested. Most of the dogs are handicapped, old or ill. Foundation Dj-Imba is in need of sponsors and virtual adopters for the dogs. www.dj-imba.com. ‘

  • Podencos with SARA in the Canary Islands – looking for forever homes

    SARA Pirulo 02 2011 190 It’s extremely hard to find forever homes for abandoned dogs on the Spanish Islands, particularly the beautiful, affectionate and loyal podencos. SARA Lanzarote have these two beauties who desperately need the chance of life outside a shelter. Andrea describes them.

    Pirulo is a very friendly and affectionate Podenco. He is obedient and will always watch out for the person that’s with him. He prefers to be cuddled and stroked than go to run or hunt, which is very special for these dogs. He is as well friendly with other dogs both male and female. He likes to be taken for walks, does not pull in the lead, we think he could even go without the lead.

  • Venancio, galgo rescued in Spain, adopted in Norway – can you help him?

    Venancio 1 250 Venancio is a galgo rescued in Spain, rehomed in Norway. Unfortunately he arrived with a problem which is going to be extremely costly to put right. Monette tells his story.

    I´m writing you with an appeal on behalf of a newly adopted galgo from Spain and his loving family. Venancio arrived Norway december 2010, where a young couple have adopted him. Unfortunately, it appears now that the damage Venancio suffered just before his departure from Spain is so bad, that the vet in Norway has given the family only two choices, either to put Venancio to sleep or to have him operated, – an operation which there is no way the family can effort!
