The Canary Islands are notoriously hell for podencos especially. Because of the mountainous terrain, it is easy for unscrupulous hunters to keep podencos hidden in valleys away from public sight in terrible conditions, often overcrowded, no shade from the sun, and starved. So let's hope this news is the start of an improvement for podencos on ALL the Canary Islands.
FINALLY AN EXAMPLE FOR ALL OF SPAIN!
The Telde City Hall in GRAN CANARIA has launched a large operation for Podencos on its territory, having finally identified hundreds of abandoned post hunting, and spotted by drones the Podencos wandering around the training and hunting areas.
Having found by inspection that dogs detained in unacceptable conditions, not microchipped, not vaccinated, and transported by inappropriate ways, they will proceed with unprecedented penalties! FINALLY ! Operations carried out by Seprona and Local Police, and operations will continue!
The living conditions of the Podencos in the Canary Islands will finally change! THANK YOU Telde Gran Canaria Town Hall.
Thank you Aday for this important and historical information!
What a great win!!! Congratulations to the Municipality of Telde!!! An example for all of Spain!!!
