The endless rescue work of Angie McCready, on the Costa Blanca

Angie moved to the Southern Costa Blanca inland from Alicante 9 years ago from the UK. She hadn't realized the plight of dogs here until she arrived. She was shocked, outraged, and felt she needed to do something. She was soon bottle feeding puppies that had been found dumped in bins, picking up strays from the street, and finding them new homes. Many didn't even go any further than Angie's home... She's a confirmed failed fosterer on more than one occasion. At the last count she has 11 ranging from quite small dogs to a Spanish Mastiff who is the gentlest dog ever.

From Angie:
"I know you might think this isn't much but to us it's huge. Missy is terrified of the lead. As soon as I get a lead out she flies into a panic and runs off. So for the past few days I have been walking round with a lead attached to my waist. 

Yesterday I turned the lead into a play thing with Libby and Poppet. Missy watched from a distance, and didn't want to interact. This afternoon I sat next to her, very slowly unclipped the lead from my waist and laid it at the side of me. She saw it but didn't volunteer to run off. After a few minutes I moved it to where you see it on this picture. It didn't bother her and she lay for a good 20 minutes like this. 

She is definitely learning from the other dogs better than from me. We will persevere and hopefully soon you will be seeing her on a lead ready for a walk!! x"
