From Bev Farmer. I had the pleasure of meeting her friend Janette when I visited Bev a few years ago. This is what happened during one of the worst storms to hit Andalucia. Sadly storms are still forecast to hit the region.
'Just before the big storms hit us in Spain Janette Lopez was contacted by a local perrera 7 galgos and a Podenco had been handed in by a Galguero and could she help .. Her rescue is mainly local adoptions of family type dogs and she doesn't get much interest in sighthounds. So she asked me if I could team up with her and help with them .. No problem Janette ....
Then a couple of days later I was asked if we could help with a galga who had just given birth in a disused finca surround by rubbish. 3 pups had already died and it was a matter of urgency to get them to safety .. I had no space here to take them so Janette took them. At the time it seemed all manageable, 15 dogs. Then disaster struck and one of the worst Gota Frias recorded in the region hit .. Janette's rescue was badly flooded and a lot of damage. On top of that she took in 27 dogs displaced because of the storms plus a couple of goats and to date only a couple of people have come forward to claim them.

Just learnt about this association in Cordoba. It is encouraging to me that, since I started my involvement with the galgos and podencos back in 2007, so many new shelters and associations have been formed, so many more people caring for these wonderful but abused hounds.

I was recently asked to help a small shelter in Almeria who rescue mainly galgos and podencos. They struggle to raise funds to pay for the many vet fees as most of the dogs arrive with health problems. At the moment there is a galga just arrived and diagnosed witn Leishmania and Ehrlichia.
Here's a story about a podenco with a special health probem.

'Elderly dogs, with tumors, with Leishmania or extremely thin... When we rescue animals we do it because they need help and because we’re worried about the fate that might await them without it.
We don’t choose them for their color, size or age, nor do we care if they’re healthy or sick ... We don’t select which dogs to help, we don’t think about whether they’re more or less beautiful or sociable, we don’t even consider if they will be easily adopted or if no one will want to give them a home and they’ll have to spend the rest of their lives with us in the shelter. None of that matters ...
In Scooby we are animal lovers and our main goal is to help the ones most in need as they also deserve the best life possible.

'Terrible! They find a podenco about to be crushed by the garbage truck in Alcanar (Tarragona). Some heartless bastard got rid of him by throwing it into a container.
Fortunately there are also many good people willing to help him and welcome him. Thank you aGOSaGATs for saving his life!

Foster home needed urgently for injured podenca.
'We introduce you to René, who had the bad fortune to cross the road, being run over. The luck she had is that the person of the vehicle, he immediately contacted us and the police, and was attending her until the police quickly took her from there to the vet. Since Sunday, she has been debating between life and death, but luckily, it seems to improve.
She has a fractured hip, so she must keep absolute rest. She also had the Perforated Bladder, but the operation has been carried out and improves every day.
She needs a quiet place where she can recover, a small room where she can't move in large spaces and rest until she heals.
Therefore, we ask you maximum dissemination to find her a welcome. We can't take her to the police officers, in no way and we have no shelter.'

From Salvemos Podencos
This is our princess Eire. Eire is a podenquita about 1 year old and 6-7 pounds of weight. She was alone for a while roaming the campo, we were asked to help to rescue this little girl. Wee suspect she may have been hung because she has a huge wound that cuts her all the neck. Of course we took care of her. She has suffered a lot despite how little she is, she looks so helpless that she gave us her soul and is a love.
We urgently need foster homes in Barcelona and adoptions. There are many podencos we have in our office. And several podencos that we have without sponsors 60 e /month in the kennels for each dog, plus expenses of vets, transport....., we ask you not to be indifferent to our request and for little that you can help us save lives. Eire has no sponsors so she needs some until she finds a foster home or adoption.
She deserves a chance!
