Sombra feliz/Sombra happy


A que parece que ha vivido en una casa toda la vida? Esta es Sombra, 7 años y pasado de un galguero a otro hasta que termino en la perrera y la pude sacar. Estuvo poco tiempo en el refugio porque, logicamente, una buena persona se enamoro de ella con esa mirada dulce y de "Ayudame" que tiene. Pues asi vive ahora!
........................................................
Doesn´t it look like she has ever lived like this? This is Sombra, 7 years young and has been gone through various galguero´s hands till she ended up at the killingstation and I took her out. She hasn´t been with me for long because a good person saw her and fell in love with her, of course....with that lovely, sweet look saying: "Help me". Well this is how she lives now!

Blacky, Amor y ahora Fosca/Blacky, Amor and now Fosca


A esta preciosa galguita la saque en julio de la perrera y estuvo 1 mes en pension hasta que SOS galgos encontro una adopcion para ella en Sitges. Ya era guapa entonces pero ahora mas todavia. Normal con los cuidados que esta recibiendo. Yo la llame primero Blacky porque creia que era macho. Cuando me di cuenta que era hembra la llame Amor y la familia adoptiva la ha llamado Fosca.
..............................................................
I took this beauty out of the killing station in July and she spend one month in a pension till she was adopted in Sitges through SOS galgos. She already was beautifull when I took her out but now she is even more beautifull! I first called her Blacky as I thought she was a male. When I saw she was a female I called her Amor (love) and the family has called her Fosca

ya tengo sobrepoblacion otra vez!/ overbooking again!




Dos nuevos que llegaron ayer de un pueblo de Cordoba, puente genil, igual que Harry, que ha vuelto al refugio despues de que se haya recuperado muy bien en una casa de acogida.
Nos hizo llorar a mas de una cuando vimos como comian cuando llegaron, sobre todo Galan, el negro. El pobre se atragantaba. Le pusimos 4 veces de comer y todo se lo comio con mucha anxia. Ya hoy ha comido con mas tranquilidad. Viene lleno de heridas en todo el cuerpo y le falta pelo. Blas, el gris de pelo duro, tiene una dermatitis muy severa. Los encontro un señor que los vio comiendo de la basura y los cogio sin problemas. Son increiblemente cariñosos. No tienen rincor hacia el ser humano por haberles hecho pasar estas calamidades. Es increible. Seguro que, con los cuidados que le damos, se recuperen pronto. Ahora a hacer las analiticas y esperar que no tengan leishmania......
Y Harry ya esta bastante recuperado. Ya apoya la pata operada y a penas cojea. Tambien ha cogido peso en su casa de acogida.
............................................................................................
Two new ones who arrived yesterday from Puente Genil, a village in Cordoba, same village where Harry was found. More than one of the volunteers cried when they saw the way they were eating their food. So much anxiety, poor boys! Specially Galan, the black one. He ate 5 bowls of food yesterday. Today he seemed to be more relaxed about the food. Look at their bones. They both have a severe dermatitis. But they will recover with the good care they will receive from now on. Still have to do the tests and lets cross fingers that they donot have leishmania.
And Harry, who was found in the same village with a broken leg (see previous story) has recovered a lot after having been looked after by a lady who took him for foster during 3 weeks. He is now back at the kennel again. Hope they will all find a good home soon.

mas horror/more terror


A esta pobre galga kla han utilizado para entrenar sus perros de pelea. Si, tambien los usan para eso, porque no suelen ser peleones asi que el perro de pelea se puede ensañar bien con ellos. Que asco de gente, de verdad. estos personas se les deberia echar ante los leones como se hacian antiguamente.
Que triste. menos mal que esta pòbre fue rescatada, lo peor es pensar que otros muchos mueren de esta forma tan terrible y no nos enteramos. Me quita el sueño por las noches
..............................................................................
This poor poor galga has been used for dog fights. Yes, galgos are used for that aswell because they normally are no fighters so the dog in question can do whatever he wants with them and be trained. What a horrible people live in this world. I would throw them in front of the lions as many many years ago. How sad. Lucky enough this one was rescued but the worse is that many others die in this way and we will never know......That makes me stay awake at night....

Otra preciosidad/Another beauty

Y esta preciosidad???? Pues deambulaba por un pueblo de Malaga y una chica me contacto. Le dije que si, que si la pudiera coger me la quedaba. Fue facil de cogerla porque es un amor. Debe de tener no mas de 1 año. Pues aqui esta, revolucionando a todos con sus juegos locos. Se llama Ayla.
..............................................................
And this beauty???? She was walking around in a village of Malaga. A girl spotted her and contacted me. I said that I would take her if she was able to catch her. And yes, she is not afraid and a lovely girl. She is not more than 1 year old. Well, here she is, driving the others mad with her plays. She is called Ayla.

buenas noticias por un lado, por otro no/great news at one side, at the other not




















Los que tuve que dejar en la perrera cuando fui a sacar los tres que he comentado. Los difuni pero sin exito asi que volvi la semana pasada para volver a hacer mas fotos y volver a difundirlos. Mi tristeza fue encontrarme con que el macho blanco con las manchas negras en la cara ya no estaba.....ni una blanca de la que no habia hecho fotos la primera vez. Pregunte y me dijeron que habian muerto....asi que quedaban 3. Volvi a difundir y afortunadamente me dijo una organizacion francesa que se hacian responsables de ellos. Asi que el jueves fui a sacarlos. Siempre me pasa igual: voy a por dos y me traigo 3. Esta vez fui a por 3 y me traje 4 porque, halleluya! La blanca estaba alli! Claro que la saque aunque no tenia idea donde meterla. Bueno, ya estan estos 4 a salvo y, aunque estan un poco apretados, caben y se llevan bien. Eso nunca se sabe, claro. Pues la 4ta que me trajo ya tiene adopcion en Alemania. Pero que suerte!!!! Ya me han dicho que hay 2 nuevas..........
................................................................................................
Those are the ones I mentioned and had to leave behind in the killingpound when I went for 3. I had to leave 5 behind (see below) and I took fotos which I emailed around to find a solution for them. No reply, so I went back to take more photos and found out that two of the five were missing. The white one with the black spots on his face and a white female. I asked and they told me that they had died.....So I emailed the 3 left around and was so lucky to find a French organisation who commited themselves to respond for their pension and treatments. Great! So I went back on Thursday to take them out. My surprise: The white one was there!!!! So, of course I took her although I didn´t know where to put her. Well I have put 3 in some kennels although the ideal is 2, but they fit well and have no problems between each other. You never know how they get on. The white one has already an adoption in Germany!!! I am so lucky! I have been told that there are 2 new ones......

salvados!!!!/saved!!!!

Esta vez si ha funcionado lo del envio por correo del grito de socorro para salvar a los tres que quedan en la perrera! Se va a hacer cargo una organisacion francesa!!!! Que felicidad! Pero que pena me da que hemos llegado tarde para los otros dos.....y otros tantos.....
............................................
This time the emailing has worked!! My cry for help has been heard and a French organisation will take care of them. I am so so happy! Although I suffer for the ones who didnot survive....and many others....

los tres nuevos que saque/the three new ones I took out











Sacha, la de la primera foto es la que lloraba tanto. Tiene nada mas que un año y 3 meses y tiene las tetillas de acabar haber criado una camada. Se ve que le han echado un macho con el primer celo, ha tenido sus cachorros, el galguero se los ha quedado y a ella la ha abandonado en la perrera. Normal que lloraba!!!
El de color chocolate, Txoco, es el que en principio no iba a sacar. Menos mal porque tiene la tos de la perrera. Si lo hubiera dejado alli ya tendria nuemonia y hubiera muerto. Despues del 3er dia de tratamiento ya no tose y hasta quiere jugar.
Y el blanco es el de la pata inflamada. Ya va mejor!
.................................................................................................
Sacha, the one of the first phot is the one who was crying all the time. She is ony 1 year and 3 months old and you can see that she has been breeding. They must have covered her at her first period. Then she got pregnanat and once the puppies were born the galguero must have kept them and dropped her at the killingpound! Totally understandable that she was crying! Poor soul.
Txoxo, the chocolate color one. It was not my intention to take him out but he was toghether with Titan which had his leg injured. (see below). He has kennel cough and if I would not have taken him he would have neumonia by now or would be dead like the other 2. After 3 days of treatment he is much better and wanting to play.
Titan, the white one. His leg is doing much better already.
Titan is the white one with the injured leg

que triste/how sad











Hace un poco mas de una semana fui a la perrer para ver cuantos galgos habian entrado. Habia 8 y solo tenia sitio para 2.....Como puedes elegir? Es imposible pero hay que hacerlo.....Por la noche, pensando, decido sacar a dos hembras pero cuando fui el dia siguiente a sacarlos vi que habia un macho que tenia una inflamacion en una pata y se via que le dolia. La veterinaria se iba de vacaciones y me dijo que era dificil que alguien le tratara si no estaba ella......asi que decidi sacarlo. Estaba con otro galgo y cuando saque al de la pata inflamada este se quedo mirando: y porque me dejas aqui???? Total, tambien lo saque. Y una galguita pequeña tipo whippet que no hacia mas que llorar. Deje alli a 5 mas con todo el dolor de mi corazon. Los difundi pero sin exito. Ninguna respuesta asi que fui otra vez a la perrera hoy para sacar mas fotos y me encontre con la pena de que 2 habian muerto......solo quedan 3 alli. Son los de la foto. Adelgazan por dia y tienen la cara cada vez mas triste.....Lo he vuelto a difundir y ya he recibido alguna respuesta. Los tengo que sacar de alli como sea pero el problema de siempre: dinero. Porque los tendria que meter en pension ya que no tengo sitio en mi refugio.
.........................................................................
About thn days ago I went to the killingstation to see how many galgos were there. I only had space for two and I found there were 8.....How can you chosse which ones you will take????Imposible. At night I decided to take out two females. Went there next day and found that a male had an injured leg. The vet was going on a weeks holiday so he wouldn´t be treated. I decided to take him. He was toghether with another galgo male and when I took out the injured one he looked like: why not me also???? Of course I took him out. And I also took an small female whippet type because she was crying all the time. I left 5 behind but emailed them around to find other people who could take them. No response at all. I went there again today to take more photos and I found that 2 of the 5 had died. The ones on the photos have survived till now but I have to take them out if not they will suffer the same bad luck. I will succeed!!! The proble is as always: money. I donot have space so have to put them in pension.....

Zeus












Y este es Zeus. Parece mayor por sus canas pero solo tiene 4 años. Los galgos negros empiezan a tener canas a muy temprana edad. Zeus es guapisimo pero sobre todo buenisimo. Se lleva bien con los demas perros y busca cariño humano continuamente. Pero eso todo el mundo que llega al refugio se lo quiere llevar.....Espero que tenga suerte pronto en encontrar una casa.
............................................................
This is Zeus. He looks old but he is only 4 years young. Black galgos normally have grey hair at a very young age. Zeus is a beautifull big size, rough hair galgo but he specially is a very sweet dogs. Always looking for love of people. He gets on very well with the other dogs. He aswell deserves finding a home soon.

Mar


A Mar la saque de la perrera a mediados de Noviembre junto con otros 3. Gracias a la difusion por facebook ha encontrado una familia fantastica que la ha adoptado. Ya tienen 2 galgos y casi se llevan tambien a Zeus, un macho precioso, negro de pelo duro. Pero.....los maridos son mas cautos y no hubo manera. Mar va a tener por fin una vida feliz. Es jovencita asi que ha tendio mucha suerte de poder tener una larga vida digna. Un abrazo Mar!!!!!
...................................
I took Mar out of the killing pound mid November with another 3. Thanks to facebook Mar was adopted soon by a fabtastic family who already has 2 galgos. They almost took Zeus, a beautifull black rough hair male, but the husband was a bit more contious that 4 would be too much. Mar will have a happy life. She is still young and she has been very lucky to be able to live a long and deserved good life. Hugs Mar!!!!!
