Not a galgo, but still a sighthound

This is Lord Byron, he is in Tarragona, Spain. He was found tied to the door of a house, where the owner has an Afghan.

He was covered from head to toe in fleas and ticks, and very weak.

His coat was knotted like dreadlocks right to the skin, so his skin could not breath, so he had to be clipped.

He has dermatitis, woulds and lumps all over him, possibly because he got caught under a wire fence, which cut his skin and became infected.

He has faringitis, an ear infection, and the pads of his feet are soft, as though he has been enclosed somewhere, and unable to walk on them.

He cannot bear his feet to be touched at the moment.

He is on treatment for the infections, and having tests for leishmania, filaria, and ehrlichia. He needs chipping and castrating.

The people who are looking after him are not in a position to pay for all his care, they already have 8 dogs in their home.

If you can help, email Alejandra at info@hasiandasha.com. Her boyfriend speaks English.

Her website is www.hasiandasha.com.

Hi Beryl

No photo showing yet on this post, and the website URL does not seem to be working.

Hi Susie

Have only just posted, and sent the pix to Craig to put on, as I don't know how to do it. Will ask him to look at the website URL as well, but it is the one I was given.

Thanks for reading Galgo News, and for your input.
