  • Justice for galga Duna – hung by a Spanish thief

    Duna stolen and hung 400 12 2021
    Please sign this petition and share widely. Bring the perpetrator to justice!

    On Friday, November 26, while they were doing their last training course in the Sierra de Tajonar, an individual put her in his van and took her away.Thanks to the GPS locator that DUNA was wearing, they found her hanged on his private farm.

    Let’s eradicate violence towards animals once and for all. Real legal actions are urgently needed to punish the mistreatment and murder of animals.

    A person who abuses an animal in this way does not feel empathy towards other living beings. Cruelty causes violence, and violence, crime.

    Society must continue to advance towards a more just world with everyone. It is necessary that the animal movement continues to push to make those who are insensitive see that animals matter and that the cruelty that is exercised legally or illegally towards them must be stopped.

  • Pet galga stolen and hung – Navarra, Spain

    Yo Galgo Duna 12 2021 400
    Yo Galgo is in Tajonar, Navarra, Spain.

    This is the story of Duna

    A couple of days ago, a couple was training recall with their beloved galga, Duna, in the countryside of Spanish province Navarra. At one point, Duna didn’t return.

    Duna was off leash in an area, where dogs are allowed to run free, she was wearing a coat and a collar. No doubt she had owners. Still a man had taken her, put her in his car and taken off. Duna was wearing a GPS, and following it’s signal, they quickly located Duna in a farmhouse, where she had been hung!

    We are so outraged!!! And heartbroken for Juan and Laura, the owners of Duna, who they adopted 1,5 year ago.

  • PACMA fighting for animal rights in Spain – blocked by the hunters!

    PACMA galgo 400 11 2021
    The latest news from PACMA

    ‘In October 20231 the Ministry of Social Rights and the 2030 Agenda “presented” its preliminary draft of the Animal Protection Law at a public event. A month and a half later, the only thing that is published on its website is a draft of the preliminary project, and the hearing and public information process has not been opened.

    From the beginning we warned that this law left out most of the animals: the victims of livestock, hunting, experimentation laboratories, bullfighting … But also, at this rate, the legislature will end without the animals having a animal protection law at the state level, the false promise of Podemos at electoral time. Once again, animals are the most neglected, relegated to the background and vilified.

  • Protectora Scooby – donations needed for big vet fees please

    Scooby injured galga 400 11 2021
    From Scooby Protectora.

    ‘The abandonment of galgos begins. It’s the season to use galgos to hunt hares and therefore discard and throw away those who don’t do their job well. The easiest thing is to abandon them and here is one of the consequences of that abandonment.

    A run over Galguita that is already admitted for surgery.

    Unfortunately, experience tells us that this young lady won’t be the last galgo we collect in these conditions or similar so we’re going to need help to cope with the extra expenses that fall upon us these months.
