  • TAKE ACTION NOW FOR THE HUNTING DOGS OF SPAIN

    SIGN THE PETITION. THELIFELIKECHARLIE.COM
    HERE’S WHAT THE TRANSLATION OF THE PETITION IS IN ENGLISH. FEEL FREE TO USE THIS AN EMAIL TEMPLATE TOO. (THIS IS SUMMARISED SO IT CAN BE POSTED)

    I, [FULL NAME], holder of ID number [ID/PASSPORT NUMBER], submit this statement regarding the preliminary public consultation on the draft Royal Decree on traditional zoological centres to express my concern about its scope and consequences.
    I support the submissions of Fundación AnimaNaturalis Internacional (CIF G67350462) and highlight the following:
    – Definition of “traditional zoological centres”

    The current definition, based mainly on exclusions, creates legal uncertainty and allows overly broad interpretations. Clear, positive and restrictive criteria are essential to avoid including animals or establishments that should not fall under livestock health regulations.
    – Exclusion of hunting dogs and other non-productive dogs (more…)

  • Protectora Scooby Medina- the forgotten galgos

    Another hunting season is over. Don’t forget them.
    Many new galgos are entering the shelters, and in a few days a rescue mission will recover dozens of galgos in southern Spain.
    But please remember those who have been waiting for a long time.
    These are just some of the forgotten galgos — many of them have made great progress and are ready to go home.

    If you can, please give them priority.  They deserve a life beyond the shelter.

  • Protectora Scooby Medina – 25 more unwanted galgos now safe forever

    Video

    From Scooby Medina.  Lined up, handed over, saved. 25 galgos
    Nieves and Fermin set off last week towards Extremadura (Badajoz) to collect 33 galgos and one Breton.  With poor road conditions and severe weather alerts, this rescue could not wait.

    In the end, 25 dogs made it out.  For the galgueros, a handover without regret.  For the galgos, the beginning of a new chance. It won’t be easy or immediate, but this is where everything begins. (more…)

  • PACMA – working for the animals of Spain

    Thinking of all the Spanish rescue shelters in Andalucia during the terrible Storm Leonardo and praying none of them are flooded out or suffer damage. This from PACMA – Partido Animalista.

    We’re writing to you today at a particularly worrying time. Given the adverse weather forecast for Andalusia, we at PACMA have had to do what no other political force is doing: demand the activation of an emergency plan that includes animals.

    While the authorities are preparing (and rightly so) to protect people and infrastructure, animals remain absent from official protocols.

    Overcrowded shelters, volunteers without resources, animals dependent on humans completely exposed to the cold, heavy rain, or potential flooding. This is the reality that keeps repeating itself, and from which we never seem to learn. (more…)
