4 puppies abandoned in the campo - urgent Foster in Malaga needed

Hard to imagine what happened that these 4 tinies were abandoned but luckily they were spotted and taken into the care of a rescue association. Here's their story.

TLF: 722405984 (Spain 0034)

CHOCOLATE
STRAWBERRY
NATA
VAINILLA

These 3-and-a-half-month-old puppies were alone in the field when some wonderful girls on holiday found them. They asked for help because they couldn't catch them since they had rescued another rescued just days before.

Thank you to a person in the area who took all 4 of them in their home and washed them, care and taken to the vet they are now safe. This person can't have them many days, max until next Tuesday, he already has more animals and does everything he can for them and more.

The good news is that we have an association that takes over in managing their adoption, but for them it is necessary to foster Malaga or surroundings.

We we need help.. this is a chain of favors and if you break the link you break the chain. The girls have no shelter and only thanks to your help can we keep helping.

Galgos 112 - saving a Podenco injured and left in the road!

From Galgos 112

'We got an email asking for desperate help for this poor podenco. Found by some guys who are sightseeing in the county area, in Jaén. He was lying in the middle of the road.

They stopped to pick him up and, not knowing anyone in the area, they called SEPRONA, they told them they would go but they didn't show up, then they went to the local police in Castellar and they did not receive help either. Fearing that he would end up in the kennel despite his condition, after much prayers, they have managed to get police to contact them ′′ someone who cares about helping animals ". Here's how they have been able to get to the store where works Silvia, who is the person who has written to us.
That's how it is, the poor dog wasn't in a position to go back and forth, but nobody except Silvia and these guys has lifted a finger for him!

Gentlemen of the Seprona and Local Police, we remind you that you are to enforce the animal welfare law, some do not show up, others pass without even looking at whether you have chip and be able to warn your owner. Animals are living beings who feel and suffer and this podenco unfortunately has suffered a lot without you lifting a finger!

Podenco pups abandoned at 2 months old - Galgos Rescue Almeria caring for them

From Sandy Galgoslover.

'New in our care these 3 gorgeous podenco puppies. They were found in a box at the hospital in Huercal Overa, and APA Nueva Vida brought them to the vet for a check up and giving the first care.

2 girls and a boy (Caramella, Santina & Gino) approximately 2 months old. Jean Minett was so kind to pick them up at the clinic and she also offered to foster them for a while.

Many thanks APA to save them, Jean to foster them and Helping Animals Almanzora to support one of the 3 musketeers.

Podenco Tatoo - left for dead - lucky to be alive

A tragic story...let's get Tatoo a forever family for a happy ending.

'TATOO was run over and left lying in the gutter without noticing if he was alive or dead. It was winter, cold days and nonstop rain. Two days later, it occurred to them to stop by and see what had been the dog and there he was... and alive!! The truth is that he was deader than alive, unconscious, with an open fracture of the front leg with his bone out , famished... It's been many tough months in a house but he's ready to find him a family. He's a good, calm and happy dog. We don't know if he will regain foot functionality, but that affects him very little for his running around!

Podenco Theo now safe at Podenco Friends

This is the second of the 3 podencos which arrived with Bev Farmer, Theo came with Carmela.

Theo .. new arrival.

He is one of the three that arrived on Monday a smaller Podenco only 9 kilos already very much settled in.

On his visit to vets for bloods etc Bruno also does a thorough check of him. Then the words he has luxation of the patella but not one both of them. So it looks like Theo will be with us for a few months he needs surgery on both knees and then rehab. At the moment he is racing around but left will cause him problems in the future.

Not what we expected but thank goodness my vets are on the ball .. It’s been a challenging week all 4 of the new arrivals need additional veterinary care .. Will be keeping me busy the next few weeks

Podenca Carmela with Podenco Friends

From Bev Farmer

'New arrival ..Carmela. Earlier this week 3 Podencos arrived at the Finca. Working together with Michael Owens of SHUG they came from another rescue.

Carmela is 10 years old ... we have her original passport, a senior Podenco abandoned after many years of loyal service and giving birth to many puppies.

You could not wish to meet a more gracious and sweet natured dog. Loving, gentle, kind are just a few words that describe her. She has recently gone through a major surgery and has some health issues we need to address but she is very bright and happy and greets you with a waggy tail.

For now she is comfortable and settled, she is booked in to see our vet. Will update once we have more information.'

Galgos Rescue Almeria - update on China and Volcan

From Sandy Galgoslover

'If animals could speak they could tell what happened.

China’s muzzle is hurt and both seem to have been kicked because they are limping a bit. We’re so grateful that the FB post of China’s & Volcan’s disappearance was shared so many times. Normally Pods are very active but they are very quiet now, probably both are still affected by what happened. Fortunately their tails still wag when we talk to them, it means they haven’t lost their trust in us. Now they need to go to the vet for a checkup.
