How it all began, rescuing galgos
In 2014 I was a foster for a well known local rescue, who had been asked if we could get 3 galgos out of the pound for a UK rescue.
I'd never looked after a galgo before so I did a post asking for fosters. Two ladies stepped up so I offered to foster the 3rd, with one of the ladies being back up for me as I had a house full of little fosters.
Poor Charlie though couldn't go. Her leg had to heal before her spay so her transport was put on hold. Charlie was finally ready to go, transport booked, and adoption completed for the Thursday. On the Sunday before I had a phone call to say that the adopter had accepted a full time job and didn't like to say. Well the adoption was cancelled because the rescue didn't want her left home alone all day, and with no provision for her to be taken out. I was asked if I would like to adopt Charlie and, immediately said yes. She went to the protests in Malaga and was as good as gold. She was also great with the little fosters, and mothered them.
