Abandoned in Valencia, Spain

                                    Barajas

Barajas is a rough coated, male Podenco born around February 2008. He was wandering the streets for quite a while and was eventually caught and taken into “care” about a year ago. His time on the streets were obviously traumatic for him as he is a little fearful and timid but is coming round and learning to trust people, albeit slowly.

 With a little loving care he will make a wonderful companion and he has many good points. He is playful, house-trained, walks well on a lead, good with other dogs (both male and female) but is not so good with cats.

 It is time now for Barajas to find his forever home …….   Can you help him?

 He is all prepared for adoption in Spain or other mainland European countries. He is neutered, chipped, blood tested, fully vaccinated and has his own passport so adoption could be arranged immediately.

 If you have fallen for those wonderful eyes and feel you could offer him a home, please contact Sylvia  by email  at        silvia_vcia@yahoo.es

Needing a forever home in France

Darin is searching for a forever home in France.  He is a Podenco x standing about 46 cms high and is just one year old (born around March 2009).

Originally from Spain, he didn’t have a very good start in life as he was taken to the perrera (municipal pound) to be put down as he was unsuitable for hunting!  Thankfully he was rescued by the kind people from EDL (L’Europe des Levriers) who placed him in one of their foster homes in France.

He has everything going for him now as he is a perfect family dog. He walks well on a lead,  he’s housetrained and is totally oblivious to cats as he has learnt that they scratch and hiss!!

He is playful but also gentle and affectionate. He would be ideal for a family with older children and at least one other dog to play with. His favorite pastime is playing with his “foster” brothers and sisters in the garden of his temporary home in France.

Much as this family love him, he needs to be rehomed to make way for more rescue dogs currently waiting in Spain for their “second chance”. 

Darin really needs his own forever family …….. Could that be you???

New home needed in France or Spain

Nela

 Nela is a sweet little Podenco around 12 months old. I say little as she stands only 35 cms tall so fairly small for this breed.

 She was found wandering the streets of a Madrid suburb but it is unknown if she had been living in the area or dumped by someone from the surrounding countryside. It is probably the latter as she is still not accustomed to walking properly on a lead.

 With abandoned dogs it is difficult to know what they have gone through in their past and Nela is no exception. She is a little timid and wary of strange situations. She doesn’t come when called unless you tempt her with a little meat.

 Nela is looking for a new home with someone who can spend some time bringing her out of her shell. Podencos make wonderful companions and are very loyal once they have overcome their initial fear.

 With a little time and effort Nela could be a wonderful addition to your family.

 She is currently in a shelter in Spain but can be adopted through  L’Europe des Lévriers in the Paris region.
