Podenca Andaluz Cleo - in her forever with Foundation Djimba

Meet Cleo, a small Podenca Andaluz, who has also suffered at the hands of the Spanish hunters. Luckily, she has now found her forever place of safety, in France with Djimba. Betty tells her story.

'As of so many of her kind, the history of Cleo is unknown but also not hard to imagine. Born In the wild, taking care of herself, not kindly treated by humans.

At the beginning of 2012 I received an email from a friend in Barcelona - did I know a solution for a little podenca with an extreme fear of humans? Djimba is a home for old, ill or handicapped dogs and Cleo was none of these. However in the last 13 years we have had a lot of experience with traumatized dogs and her little face touched us.

Several Podencos murdered in Valencia perrera since Xmas! Plus dozens of other dogs.

Valencia perrera update - the puppy is going into foster, the mother bitch is left behind. Dominique reports 'The only 3 left are the young smooth 8 months old female, described as thin but happy and outgoing, and the mother of the pup. This perrera is ruthless.'
