Let's not forget that these deserving galgos Parchito and Cristal (starving and covered in mange) also need to have their veterinary care paid for. If you can help atall, however small the amount, please donate as requested in the message.
NB When I first received the story of Parchito, I was told he had been burned alive. I can only go on what I am told. 2 people have now written in to say he was not.......................I leave you to look at his body and make your own mind up. Either way, he will need a lot of veterinary care, which will be expensive for the association.
To my knowledge Parchito has not been burned alive, but he suffers from a very very big scab ...

TypePadHi
Thank you for your comment. The information which I received first with details about him was that he had been burned. I know he has other health problems, I think ricketts is now on the list. As he seems to have lost all his hair, I think it must be more than a very big scab. If you would like to give more information about this poor dog's injuries, and if he is beginning to get better, I'll be pleased to post it on Galgo Nes.
And thank you for reading and taking the time to comment.

I myself was skeptical at first, the damage is so important ... there is no real difference with a burning ... he is better today, I send you a link to news:

TypePadBonjour
Thank you for your comment - I am told it is a serious case of mange, plus he has ricketts. I've never seen such a case of mange where the dog had absolutely no coat. I see you say he is now in quarantine in a kennels because his condition is contagious. Poor boy, he must be wondering what is happening to him. But at least he is off the streets and receiving treatment for his condition.
Great that you read Galgo News and take time to add news to my news.
Amities
