 STILL MISSING 25th APRIL

URGENTE *** Princesa escapó sobre una cerca metro 2 al Galgos Del Sol, Murcia. Ella tiene que encontrar
03 de febrero 2013 @ 14:08

perro urgente falta
Princessa saltó por encima de nuestra cerca, el 2 de febrero de 2013, que está en algún lugar en las Balsicas, Torre Pacheco zona Roldan y está muy asustado. Ella está en la medicación y tenemos que encontrarla lo antes posible.
Princessa es una galga atigrada, ella lleva un collar morado, y un abrigo rosado púrpura cuando desapareció
ella no sabía su nombre pero
ella no es todavía microchip ya que sólo ha estado con nosotros unos días y ha sido muy mal ya que ha sido tratado por lesiones internas, incluyendo un pulmón colapsado
por favor llame a Tina 693-100-712 en cualquier momento
hay una recompensa por su retorno seguro

Tina's devastated after all that's happened to Princessa this past week. She was thrown, with another galgo, into a 30 metre depth well then Tina's vet said he believed she was ok apart from cuts & Tina took her home then Princessa started losing lots of blood & couldn't breathe well.

Tina raced her & the other galgo up to Alicante's San Vincente's veterinary hospital who said she had a collapsed lung & internal injuries. She was in there 2-3 days then Tina took her home.

Who would've thought an ill galgo could possibly jump a 2m fence with two rows of barbed wire on top?

Janice, a friend of Tina's. Tina & Gaynor, with their team of wonderful volunteers, run the Galgos Del Sol refuge in Murcia, Costa Blanca
If YOU can help by taking a galgo/podenco please email Tina on galgosdelsol@hotmail.com or ring her mobile 693 100 712 Galgos del Sol is dedicated to every galgo espanol; those who made it and sadly those who didn't. Galgos del Sol is a small rescue based in Murcia, Spain that rescues abandoned and injured galgos (Spanish hunting greyhounds), rehabilitates them and finds them forever homes in the UK and other parts of Europe. Thousands of galgos are abandoned or killed annually at the end of each short hunting season and as they are not always viewed as potential pets in Spain, they usually end up in perreras (pounds), where their lives are ended, often not in ways we would consider humane. Galgos del Sol is entirely dependent on fundraising for its survival and is run by two dedicated women, Tina and Gaynor, assisted by a group of dedicated volunteers based in Spain, France and in the UK. Galgos del Sol es una pequeña protectora con sede en Murcia, España, que rescata galgos abandonados y heridos (galgos españoles de caza) y los rehabilita y les encuentra hogares para siempre en el Reino Unido y otras partes de Europa. Miles de galgos son abandonados o asesinados cada año al final de cada temporada de caza y como en España normalmente no los consideran mascotas por lo general terminan en perreras, donde acaban con su vida y a menudo en formas que no consideraríamos muy humanas. Galgos del Sol depende totalmente de donaciones para su supervivencia y está gestionado por dos mujeres muy involucradas, Tina y Gaynor, con la asistencia de un grupo de voluntarios con sede en España, Francia y en el Reino Unido.
