Tiny galgo puppies left to die in a concrete drain! Scooby to the rescue

Scooby to the rescue, thank goodness for them. The only positive in this story is that the puppies had not been dropped down a well...as often happens...at least in this concrete 'tank' they could be seen and easily caught.

From Cobie at Valladolid.

Now safe in Scooby Medina...

Why are there people so cruel? They are only two babies! Two little galgos, a little more than a month old, that someone has left in an old water tank, over two meters high and full of dirt and debris.

SOS Galgos educating the next generation

Several of the galgo rescue associations work on educating the younger generation of children that cruelty to animals is not acceptable. SOS Galgos recently visited a school of 4-5 years olds to talk about galgos and what lovely companion animals they make.

See the photos here.

Greyhound racing should be banned, it is not a sport but a form of cruelty perpetrated by sick bastards who use the hounds as money-making machines and not as sentient beings. And the GBGB is a huge liar, we know that from past denials they have made!

Ann's Canine Care - the power of sharing appeals for forever homes

PLEASE DON'T UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF SHARING

One day a very special person called your guardian angel saw how sad you were because you thought that nobody loved you.

But this angel saw your beautiful heart and wanted to share it, and just knew that there was somebody out there searching for this beautiful heart.

Now a lady that was looking for your beautiful heart couldn't find you. She searched everywhere, in the woods, over the mountains, and across the seas. She asked the moon and the stars and they didn't know where you were, So she felt very sad too!

But then one day a little bird visited the lady that was looking for you and your beautiful heart and told her There is a guardian angel on facebook and she is sharing a beautiful heart. Perhaps that's the heart you are looking for.

Sign the petition for the galgos and podencos

Although this petition talks about the galgos, it's about protecting all the Spanish hunting dogs. Please sign and share...if we don't try and petition, there's no chance of making a change.

You will find the latest Greyhounds in Need newsletter on this link. Sit down in a comfy chair, make yourself a coffee or tea and then click on the right-hand box to open the PDF version. It is full of information about the various shelters in Spain and Italy which GIN support, plus taking some of the Macau greyhounds from China, and fundraising ideas.

Sadly there is one report of a galgo hung in a building near the centre of Badajoz in Extramadura. Badajaz has always been a hellhole for galgos. In this instance the galgo was chipped and the perpetrator of this vile act was traced and charged with animal cruelty.
