Mary Macdonald and 2 friends of GAPC of Canada travelled in May to Spain to visit a couple of refuges and to take back 3 podencos for forever homes. Here is her story.
'I went to Spain recently accompanied by 2 other GPAC volunteers, Rhonda Martins and her daughter Isabella. It was my first time being in Spain and a flight patron (flight buddy). We stayed a week volunteering at Podenco Friends, which was a very exciting and rewarding opportunity for me. I can’t express enough my gratitude and admiration for Bev and Warren who run Podenco Friends and all they do to help the dogs.
We flew back to Canada with 5 Podencos which were pre adopted, 3 from Podenco Friends and 2 from SOS Podenco Rescue. A couple of our adopters had offered to drive to Montreal to pick us up at the airport and drive us back home to Atlantic, Canada. This was a huge help when transporting the dogs and goes to show how dedicated our adopters are. When you adopt through GPAC, you are joining a family.
Here are some photos of our trip.'
Mary is back in Spain end of August to collect yet more podencos going to forever homes in Canada.
