Achilles and Hector looking for a forever home

Refugio de Sori Achilles and Hector 7 2022 400
Refugio de SORI

Achilles and Hector, the inseparable brothers, the perfect dog couple to give birth to your life.

These two little ones have been with us a while now. We resisted separating them, but we are aware that it is very difficult to find a family that wants to adopt the two of them. Still, let's not lose hope, because if you knew them, you'd know how special they are.

If you want to meet them or know more, write us an email at refugiodesori@gmail.com and we will tell you things about them.

Podenco Abel with SOS Podenco Rescue - have you a home for him?

SOS pod rescue Abel 1 7 2022 400
I lost my little 7.5kg Podenca Andaluz Bebe in August 2021 at 18 years old. She was the cutest little hound with the biggest character! I really miss her. Here's just another cute little podenco looking for his forever home. I'm tempted but can't take on any more dogs now, only room for our 2 in our small bungalow.

Contact SOS Podenco Rescue if you can offer Abel the perfect home.

Abel is an adorable 18 month old Andalusian podenco saved from a pound in Albacete. He is affectionate with people and friendly with dogs. He is a young and active dog. Blood tests clear for all diseases.

Smallish-medium size, 47 cm to the shoulders.

Podenca Rosely flying the flag

Rosie dog show prizes 400
My timid little Podenca Andaluz Rosely is slowly gaining confidence and coming out of her shell. Last weekend we attended our first dog show - organised by Wisbech Galgo and Rescue Association who do marvellous work fostering and homing rescued galgos and podencos in the local area.

I spent quite a lot of time walking Rosely (Rosie) round the showground, getting her used to the sights and sounds, and meeting other dogs. I'd like to have put her in Prettiest Bitch but doubted whether she is yet confident enough to show herself off well. But Rescue from Abroad class sounded just the thing. So in she went along with some galgos, another podenco, and a couple of Rumanian rescues. She wouldn't let the male Judge approach close, I told him she was afraid of men, but we were thrilled to bits when she was chosen for first prize.

So here's Rosie with a shield, red rosette, box of Winalot meat in jelly - her favourite - 2 packets of special croquettes and a feed bowl. Didn't she do well! So proud of her.

Refugio Kimba - Selva - another injured podenco saved

Selva 400
This is the story of a poor podenca, seriously injured and left for dead at the side of a Seville road in the cold and wet. Finally after 3 days someone took pity on her. Refugio Kimba to the rescue.

'All of us who have traveled the roads and know the number of animals that are run over every year, either because they have been abandoned, or because some people who are supposed to be responsible for them tend to have them loose and without control, we usually keep an eye out for we find some in that circumstance.

This is how a man who traveled the same route every day due to his work, published on social networks that he had been seeing a dog run over for three days in a row and that apparently he could not move. With a lot of effort, since whoever sounded the alarm only said that the animal was on the Conil de la Frontera road but did not specify a kilometer or give any more information, we found it lying on the roadside completely wet and with significant hypothermia (like He had been there for at least three days) a puppy that only had a thread of life left that by the look he gave us as we approached, he was already about to cut.'

Podenco in Spain - abandoned, injured on the road, saved

Angelica podenco 400 6 2022
And another story not uncommon for the abandoned hunting hounds in Spain, from the same shelter involved with the mass rescue of 58 hounds recently.

This morning I was leaving my parents' house when I found a podenco puppy in the middle of the street. I stopped the car in the middle but wouldn't let me catch him and started running away. After almost half an hour running around trying to catch him he ended up getting lost in the streets. I took a few more turns but I couldn't see him again.

Although we don't have space in the shelter, I am very sad that I can't help him.

Then I get a picture of a girl I know from the association of my town and I see that the one in the picture is he. I notice he got run over and he has a very ugly lump in his abdomen, makes me so mad it happened.Thanks to Anabel, Marilo, Luna, etc. from the association the little one is now in our clinic. He is being tested because he peed with blood and wasn't eating or drinking. So far the tests look like he got lucky and they're not serious. Our vet has named him Raffaello because he says he's the only white chocolate candy.

A new strain of tick-borne disease - Rickettsia

A new strain of tick-borne disease

Ticks can carry quite a few pathogens that can cause disease in dogs and humans. Some of these pathogens are viruses, some are bacteria, and some are protozoa (single-celled animals). Rikettsia are very small bacteria species that grow inside the living cells of their hosts. Different strains of Rikettsia are responsible for diseases such as Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever and various strains of typhus.
