Galgos del Sol (Murcia) makes saving galgos in Spain a reality!

The beautiful Honey is still waiting for her forever home. She is very shy under certain circumstances and lives with many fears. She will need an experienced galgo owner to adopt her...from project Mazarron.

BEOW: Honey

Washington was taken from Project Mazarron with his testicles ripped open and had been left untreated for many weeks. Now back to full health he is ready for adoption.

Les has low level Leishmania. He has been treated since February and is fine. He is a very frightened nervous galgo that would need someone with experience to adopt him. He is lovely with other dogs & is in Murcia.

Please contact Tina, President of Galgos del Sol, her email details are on the picture at the bottom of this post, thanks!

OK, now we are going to be really cheeky. We are looking for someone to donate an unwanted caravan. We have so many people from all over the world that want to come and visit our refuge and help us but we don't have accommodation for them. If we could get our little galgo paws on a caravan we can put it on our land and welcome people over to volunteer. Would you like to stay in one like this?

Seriously now .. we thought people could volunteer in the mornings.... then go to the beach and have fun of their own choice in the afternoon.

So, does anyone at all have an unwanted caravan here in Spain, near the Murcia region, PLEASE?

For adoption.

BELOW: Salvadore, doing well and waiting for his forever home. Disease negative.

BELOW: Guapa is a very gentle quiet galga.

BELOW: Pistolero is a handsome boy, healthy & ready to be adopted.

BELOW: Casandra is desperate for that CORRECT forever home. She 110% needs a home with a walled garden so that she doesnt escape as she can climb like a monkey. Casandra is so sweet and has come on in leaps and bounds since Galgos del Sol took her from project Mazarron.

Please contact Tina on galgosdelsol@hotmail.com (Murcia, Spain) for further details.

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.

Cora was one of many galgos rescued from Project Mazarron - a very bad situation. She was heavily pregnant. Sadly all her 11 puppies were either stillborn or died within 24 hrs of them being born. Cora is negative for Leish, Babesia and Filaria but positive for Erlichia, which has been treated. She is really sweet with other dogs and people and is ready for her forever home. Cora has her passport, has been vaccined & is spayed. She deserves a loving home.
