A serious case of neglect - now safe with Protectora Lugo in Galicia

This is the worst case of mange I have seen in the 13 years since I've been helping the hounds in Spain. The Prdotectora Lugo in Galicia says 'This little angel arrived a couple of hours ago at the Lugo Protectora, it looks like a little boy, brought here by the lacero from Begonte, it will be the waste of some hunter. Starving, sick and mostly cold dead, got into the heat of blankets and heat lamp. To know his life, what the poor guy has gone through, now he has to heal his body and surely his soul.

To the one who mistreats an animal like this, I wish the universe pays for it with the worst of life and the worst of deaths.'

Galgo's Rescue Almeria - another podenca now safe

Sandy says

'Today we welcomed Lucia, this young podenco was seen by Melanie and Chris last week. They quickly gained her confidence and she came to eat with them, and today they were able to catch her.

At first sight Lucia appears to be in good health, Monday we take her to the vet for a full check up.'

Lovely pix of Podenca Esca and her pups; 2 of the pups are already reserved for forever homes and you can see how well Esca's leg is healing. Marvellous work by Bev and her vet team.

Podenco Campanero Gulliver - looking for a forever home

Gulliver is a 2 year old podenco campanero found abandoned in Jaén. He is shy with people (more of men). He is excellent with other dogs, gets on with everyone no matter the size. Likes to play with them.

Not tested with cats yet.

Big size, 65-70 cm to the shoulders.

Ideally he should have a home with another dog in a calm area and with a garden.
