Protectora Scooby to the rescue again - it's never ending, please donate to help

Yet another poor galga desperately needing help. Here's her story.

'So many galgos saved, so many galgos in poor condition, so many medical costs,so many more requests for taking in galgos but our financial position does not allow this, that is what it is.

But when the police bring us this poor girl with a badly broken leg, she´s also covered in ticks, we just can't say no because in the perrera they will not operate her, probably they will put her down. We just can't let that happen because she is maybe 1 year young so she still has an entire life ahead. The operation will cost almost 1000 Euros and we count totally on the help from you, the public, to help us to make it posible for Tamara, that's the name we gave her, to be operated so she can make a new start in life.

Together we can make her whole again!

Slovenia Sighthound Society - working with Protectora Scooby for the galgos

There are currently over 450 dogs in Scooby and its smaller 'branches' so our help was more than needed.

In four working days we sterilized 9 dogs, neutered 17 dogs and 1 goat, performed 2 second surgeries (wound treatment) and took care of hospitalized and sick dogs. In addition to the veterinary work, we cleaned all the fences, clipped some dogs, trimmed the long claws, gave them antiparasitics, took care of the chickens. We sincerely thank all the employees and volunteers at the shelter who work every day for these animals.

And most of all - got a lot of energy and new ideas for work for the future. Will you help us with this?

Thank you to everyone who supports us so we can help us further!

Read about the latest galgos to arrive in the UK now in their forever homes, and lots more besides.

Protectora Scooby - a desperate situation - over 450 dogs rescued since December 2021

Terrible news from Scooby, they are full and running out of funds.

Fermin Perez, president of Scooby, said: "We’ve had a tough few months with more galgos and podencos dumped than more or less ever before. The flow of galgos and podencos has been unrelenting after the most recent hare coursing season.

"We are not the only shelter to experience this. Fellow rescues agree that we have not seen peak numbers like this since about 30 years ago.

"We have rescued 450 galgos and podencos, with 200 other breeds in the shelter as well. Quite simply, Scooby is full and we cannot rescue more dogs for time being.

"As you can imagine this places significant pressure on our resources and we are now in survival mode.

"We will need to solve this crisis if we are to continue."

From Sandy Galgoslover

One of the females will definitely need treatment for Leishmania, an additional lab test will be done next week to determine the exact values ​​and start the appropriate treatment.

We like to thanks Friends of Mazarrón Animals for their support and to negotiate with the owners so that these sweethearts get a chance for a better life. Also thanks Jose for bringing them to our shelter.

We’re looking for foster homes for the puppies, so if you’re willing to help please contact us “ Galgosrescuealmeria@gmail.com” or 0034 747 850 643.

Galgos 112 - saving 70 abandoned dogs in Jaen

From Galgos 112

'We aren't very good at posting numbers of our rescuers but for once, we're going to do it at least in partial mode.

From January 1 to March 8, 2022 there are 70 dogs picked up from the street alone in the Jaén delegation. Dogs that were abandoned, many with fractures and mostly sick, some in gravity. Of these 70 dogs one is a mastin, the other is a pointer, 3 are galgo crosses, 6 are podencos and the remaining 59 are galgos. 2 have passed away, 24 have been adopted and the rest some are still recovering and others waiting for adoption.

We don't lie when we ask for financial help or foster homes, nor when we say we can't anymore and that we need adoptions. I wish it wasn't necessary, but the situation of Galgos in Spain is what it is. Numbers sing though many deny it and want to shut us up.

Galgos Rescue Almeria - always there for the abandoned souls

From Sandy at Galgos Rescue Almeria.

'This is Bella in the campo. Months ago, this girl was wandering around looking for food. When she was caught, it was very clear that Bella had given birth to puppies not long before. The volunteers searched for days but unfortunately, no little ones were found.

Two weeks ago, in the same place where Bella was seen found months ago, a white growing up galgo was spotted. This white pearl is safe, she’s very similar like Bella so this girl is probably a puppy of her. Once she was rescued it was clear this girl was in very bad shape, full of fleas / ticks / malnourished. (See pix below)

She received the first care, blood test and her first vaccinations.

Many thanks Carol and Maria for saving her.

Galgo Drack at death's door - safe with Animal Rescue Spain

From Animal Rescue Spain

'He walked along the road, without strength, bleeding from his legs from spending days walking on the asphalt, desperately looking for food, with his skin stuck to his bones and about to die of starvation. We have called him Drack. We are healing his wounds, his physical and soul wounds, even though he only thinks about eating. This galgo is synonymous with strength and struggle, abandonment and indifference. He is already in Animal Rescue Spain, cared for, protected, resting. He doesn't know it, but he will never suffer again.

Since his arrival he has already gained 2 kilos, but is still very thin. His infectious disease tests came back negative and that broke our hearts even more, because that's how we know Drack got to this state - because of lack of food, they tried to starve him to death, and they surely threw him in the bones into the street. He walked for days and days down the road, where his legs were smashed and his pads were left raw, full of wounds and with a voracious hunger. Drack is now reborn at Animal Rescue Spain and reminds us that dogs are strong and grateful. Every caress, every can, every cure, every sausage, every treat, returns a look of gratitude on their part and that is our greatest reward.
