Galgos del Sol need help in trying to get their new charity shop in Los Alcazares up and running
Saturday, August 24, 2013 @ 8:11 PM

Galgos del Sol are desperately trying to get their new charity shop up and running but are really struggling & need helpers to sort the stuff out and price it up etc. if you live in Los Alcazares or the Mar Menor area and would like to help them please get in touch.

With so many sick galgos in lately that need numerous trips to the vets and medical care they need help with this more than ever to get it ready and open. Also they are taking donations in and will accept anything from clothes, toys, furniture, books, DVDs, electricals, anything that is of decent quality to re-sell. The shop is in Los Alcazares in the Oasis urbanization near the English butchers and the arches cafe.

Please pop round & offer help or things they can sell to help the Galgos.

Tel Tina, President of GdS, on  693 100 712

Here's the shop starting to take shape.

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.
