Little Boots is finally on a lead ❤️
Oh my goodness he was such a little bugger for a while there trying to bite us.
He’ll soon be ready for a home. We haven’t been able to look at his teeth yet to estimate an age but he’ll be castrated soon and we will do it all in one go. ve you got boots small enough to offer him a home?
Will you share ? 🙏🏻❤️

Our last post regarding the 110 podenco rescue.
GdS Danny & Tonya went back to the perrera for the German shepherd.
He’s now at Galgos del Sol and needs a name 🐾😍🙏🏻
We also got the rest of the pods out that were NOT from the 110 but there in the kennels.
Two had severely injun had grown over the collars (not at the perrera but recent arrivals).
They went to Protectora SAT Animal Rescue .
They had originally put space aside for podencos 110 but as they all got out they instead helped to clear out others that had been waiting a long time.
Thank you soooo much ❤️
What shall we call the shepherd then? 🙏🏻❤️
And yes yes that’s a Hei-Wa T-Shirt designed by Danny himself 😊

Hopper came from the 110 podenco rescue.
He was left with a severe injury and we are waiting to see if we can save the leg.
I’m no trauma vet but I suspect no. He’s so friendly and loving. Even with three legs he’s gonna be a bundle of fun 🤩
Who will adopt this adorable happy Hopper? 🙏🏻❤️

Maternity ward news!
Lots of checks through the night and well… it’s getting close for the remaining four pregnant mums!
Some people have asked why we don’t spay and abort. It’s a fair question as we have so many unwanted dogs in the world.
At this stage of pregnancy I th myself and the decisions I make are my consequences to live with.
People still breed, buy from breeders, let their dogs have a first litter and gift the pups.
Shouldn’t we be focusing on this rather than the difficult position rescues are put in?
People talk about mental health of rescuers.
Well believe me, if I took these mums to spay and abort now I would struggle greatly.
We will home them all with a lot of work that we are not afraid of.
I’m sorry that more come into the world. Everytime we allow so easily Galgueros to drop their dogs off with no questions asked, it just opens the doors for them to breed more relentlessly with no responsibility.
Yet many of you support that we take them. Of course, we don’t want them harmed.
We are between a rock and hard place and for that reason I’ll protect myself so that I’m still here working for years to come.
We all have to live with ourselves and we cannot trick the subconscious.
This is what’s right for GdS!

110 Podencos saved, but I’m still sad. Why?
Because the perrera is full of dogs who have been there for years, unseen, unnoticed and unwanted.
People have contacted Ribamontes asking for Podencos from the 110, but when told those dogs have gone and that there are others who nnels for years, suddenly those dogs weren’t wanted.
I want to be absolutely clear: I hugely appreciate every single person who helped with the 110.
The generosity, compassion and effort were incredible, and this post is in no way intended to diminish the amazing work you have all done.
Quite the opposite.
It’s about highlighting that this problem is so much bigger than 110 Podencos.
We also took Podencos from the normal kennel situation the other day, have reserved this German Shepherd, and there are around five Podencos from other cases still waiting to be collected.
They are the ones not wanted.
They will be picked up over the next few days.
Every single day, dogs are suffering in perreras and overcrowded shelters that are understaffed and desperately short of volunteers.
Believe me, a dog locked in a kennel for years in a shelter is NOT rescued.
They shut down, they lose hope, they start spinning in circles because the mental torture becomes too much.
I’m asking everyone who was willing to help one of the 110 to please consider reaching out to a perrera and helping a Podenco or other breed who has been waiting there for years 🙏🏻
If you know of one who needs help, please share their details or links in the comments.
This isn’t about pointing fingers or creating online drama. It’s about recognising a much bigger problem.
Many people played a part in what happened with the 110, handing dogs over to this man they knew was unable to care for them.
He’s already had dogs taken away previously according to sources involved and yet people continued to give him dogs they didn’t want.
The dogs suffered.
But this is not an isolated situation. Dogs are continually handed over to already overcrowded shelters, sometimes by people who know exactly what conditions await them.
This happens far too often. We shouldn’t need 110 dogs in a crisis to make people care.
One forgotten dog, sitting alone in a cage for years, should be enough.
We will take the German Shepherd. Who will contact Ribamontes rescue and help take another?
Let’s not forget the invisible ones.
Let’s keep this generosity going ❤️
