A galga found trapped in a dumpster & three more galgos found the same day living on a rubbish tip.

Yesterday, Monday 16th July, a galga was found trapped in the dumpster and 3 other galgos were seen living on the rubbish tip. The trapped galga, now called Lola, was very difficult to rescue because she was scared & become aggressive when we tried to climb in and the others were not so easy either but GdS didn't want to leave without them so we kept going.

This video & photos will break your hearts!

Lola had been thrown in through the hole on the left.

Antonio from Los Infiernos refuge kindly came out with his catching pole &, thankfully, managed to get Lola out of skip safely.

BELOW: Also yesterday these three were rescued from a rubbish tip where they were scavenging. 

Big thanks to Yvonne from 'The Golf Store' , Karin and Antonio from Los Infiernos refuge for helping. The white one took a shine to Karin and allowed her to catch her. 

JOB DONE, FOUR new editions to GdS and 4 big vets bills. All are injured.

>>>   <<< Lola has had an emergency operation this afternoon (Monday 16th) ) on her spleen. If you can spare a cafe con leche this week or a Starbucks, please do it for Lola and donate instead. Just small amounts all add up. 

 

again! Late Tuesday 17th.........

Look who is home???? Look who looks a million times better. Lola has had to have her spleen removed completey but she can live a normal life, no worries. We have put pieces of the puzzle together and would like to share our and the vets theory but of course it is not FACT.

Lola was spotted in the street the night before she was found in the skip. She didn't look great. There is no way she could have climbed into the skip as its a big one and she would have been too weak to even try. We believe someone put her in there and sadly its possible she was injured in some way (not a car) that had caused the spleen to swell up as much as it had, it was at bursting point.

So, did someone hurt her and dump her in there????? If someone did then we hope there is a special place waiting for you where you will have to answer to what you have done.
