Remember Gazpacho, the galgo at death's door rescued by Galgos del Sol. Here's an update.
Watch Gazpacho defy all the odds! Gazpacho was rescued in appalling conditions and his kidneys were unrecogniseable. It was heavily suspected he might not survive long. However Gazpecho says he's not going anywhere... he’s living the life in foster with Carine & Patrick and having way too much fun!

Human cruelty will never cease to amaze us.
We have just received this beauty in the state you see. We don't know how she is able to stand, she is just bones. We will call her MALALA because she is a great fighter and we will get her to pull through.
MALALA will of course not be in adoption until she is recovered, we will keep you updated on her progress.
These are the dogs that the new animal welfare law leaves desolate.
To donate to her care, feed, vet fees, PAYPAL: puntanimals@hotmail.com

An desperate appeal from Galgos de La Mancha
URGENT HELP NEEDED - WE ARE ABOUT TO CLOSE!!! GALGOS OF SPAIN NEED YOUR HELP!! €5, €10... Anything helps us! Write to us and join our whatsapp group of collaborators.
Hunting season is over and we have an avalanche of greyhounds! Lots of animals on the street, in the kennels and waiting to get into our shelter. We don't have the capacity or resources to pick up more animals. Debts and expenses suffocate us!!! Many partners, godparents and teamers rates have been disappearing little by little and our accounts are not maintained.
We are looking for companies that want to collaborate with our association
WE NEED TO OPERATE A HIP AND PAY OFF VETINARY DEBT! WE PAY RENT FOR THE SHELTER!
WE NEED COLLABORATION! PARTNERS, FOLKS, TEAMERS, DONATIONS, FOSTER HOMES, ADOPTIONS.... DON'T LEAVE US ALONE.

FEBRUARY 1 WORLD GALGO DAY
They say out there, that greyhounds dream their whole life with a life to come, they dream their home, their family, every place, and that dream helps them to be able to get through their reality of abuse and torture. Many make it and others get left in the way.. So when a greyhound comes to your life is not that you have chosen but he dreams.
The end of the hunt comes and with it the end of their lives or the release of others.
Over a year we collect many dogs, but the vast majority are hunting dogs, especially greyhounds and podencos. It is very painful to see how they arrive with their souls totally shattered, atrocious fear and utter distrust for human, not to mention the physical wounds. Dogs that pee and defecate on you when you look into their eyes... We can't imagine what they've had to go through.

This story from Refugio Kimba about galga x Sena.
Sena, the warrior princess, is looking for a home.
This precious little girl hasn't had a good life. She's been chained all her life, she didn't know anything, just her little house and the shadow of a tree, she couldn't love more than a meter and a half.
Right now she is in a foster home, she learns very fast, walks very well and is slowly learning more new things. She's a little timid with other dogs, but she's learning to play too.
s
She is approximately 8 years old, of which he has not had a normal life, she weighs about 22 kilos. Her time has come, life on the chains is over, now come the soft beds, good food, good walks and love and pampering forever

I often say galgos and podencos should come with a health warning - one is never enough, they are such wonderful loving and rewarding dogs. We regularly had 4 or 5 at our farm in France, a couple of which were failed fosters! Here's a lovely story about a canine family adopted through Greyhounds In Need.
