Puntanimals in Huelva - rescue from a rubbish dump!

We are an Animal Protection Association with a small shelter located in Punta Umbria, Huelva. We rescue street animals to offer them a second chance.

A few days ago we learnt that the police had picked up a mother with her daughter from a polygon in a deplorable state of health. The mother unfortunately didn't manage to survive so much pain and abandonment.

But the little one has fought for her life after being discharged from her hospitalization at @hospitalveterinariofauna, she continues to recover in the shelter and getting more beautiful and stronger.

SURY - This is how we baptized her. She is a love, she is affectionate even though life has only been cruel to her. It is amazing how resilient and strong animals are. You are a champion without a doubt

Update on Galga Alma with Galgos Rescue Almeria

From Sandy Galgoslover in Almeria

Update Alma:

We got back from the traumatologist with great news. The surgery was successful and the wound is healing well. Within 2 weeks the stitches can be removed.

A new appointment has been made in mid-December for a final check, if everything goes well, the screws will be removed from the titanium plate.

We would like to thanks Un Levriero per la Vita for taking care of the costs of the surgery.

Cruelty of the Spanish hunters knows no bounds - souless murderers!

From Protectora La Bienvenida Cuidad Real

Cuidad Real is 200 km south of Madrid. This story is 11 2022 - the hunters deny they are cruel to their dogs!

'POZUELO OF CVA (CUIDAD REAL)

Sensitive photo - may upset

One of our collaborators met yesterday with this Dantesque view...

And it's not the first time that this happens in this town and unfortunately, it won't be the last.

Two young galgos, two victims whose lives have been taken and of course without identification of the cowardly and poorly-born they had as their executioner.

It's already in the hands of the Guardia Civil and whoever has any leads or information about the cause, can write to us.

Galgos Rescue Almeria - galga with a broken leg

From Sandy Galgoslover at Galgos Rescue Almeria.

A couple of days ago this young galga was picked up in Baza with a broken leg and we were asked if we could take her. She was taken to the vet to make X-rays of her paw. She spent the night at the vets and then was brought to us.

She has been for a check-up with our vet, microchipped, has a European passport and a blood sample was taken. The results were negative for all Mediterranean diseases except Anaplasma. Alma will receive treatment with Doxiciclina for 28 days and an appointment has been made with the traumatologist.

We would like to thank Eli for contacting us and Raymond Faber for picking her up in Baza.

All help and support is welcome as her operations and medication is going to be expensive.

Protectora La Bienvenida Cuidad Real - another galga safe from the hunters

From Protectora La Bienvenida Ciudad Real

Weeks ago we introduced Bubble, another victim of the damn hunt and the vile hunters. The galguita that her dear owner left her ill, without food or water, to see if she died alone...

But there we came in and freed her from that hell and now she sleeps happily in a foster home, recovering and putting her heart together, waiting for her forever family.

As you can see, she's a typical galga because when they find a bed or sofa, nothing will lift them from there!

She’s doing super well at home and losing her fears.

La Bienvenida was the first Protectora I visited in 2007 from where I adopted my first galga Karmel.

Help desperately needed by Galgos Rescue Almeria

Sandy and John at Galgos Rescue Almeria have taken in several sick and badly injured galgos in the last week or so. Their vet fees are colossal and they desperately need all the financial help they can get. Please donate on this weblink and share.

Whole Dog Journal - teaching your dog recall

Imagine Every Dog Owner's Worst Nightmare Happening to You...

Your dog is running straight towards the street. You're calling his name, yelling "Come!"

What does he do?

We know you're careful with your dog. He's always leashed. He never bolts out of the door. He doesn't like to chase squirrels. Until the moment he's unsecured and he takes off.

Is your dog trained to reliably come when called? Most of us are working on a reliable "recall," but our pooches haven't entirely gotten the hang of it...yet. Well, he better...
