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!!!!!

Harry

A Harry lo encontraron 2 chicas en la calle de un pueblo de Cordoba. Tenia la pata rota y estaba en los huesos. Al hacerle una radiografia de su estomago, este estaba lleno de aceitunas! Pobre amor! Lo unico que habia encontrado para comer. Se opero de la fractura de femur y se le puso una placa con 8 tornillos. Lo acogi en el refugio con la buenisma suerte que una de las voluntarios se odfrecio para acogerlo en su casa. Ahora si se recuperara pronto! Con los mimos y la buena comida se repondra! Que suerte Harry!
............................................................................................
Harry was found in a village nearby Cordoba. He had a broken leg and was all bones. When the vet took an x ray of his stomach it was full of olives! That was the only thing he found to eat! Poor love! He had his surgery and has a plate now with 8 screws. I took him up in the shelter and he has been so lucky because one of my volunteers has taken him into foster. Now he will heal quickly and gain weight for sure! Lucky harry!

de tener 17 a tener 11/from having 17 to have 11!

Tengo muchas fotos pero hay que editarlas y para eso no tengo tiempo. Gracias a mis ya muchos voluntarios no paramos de encontrar buenos adoptante, hacer cosas para recaudar dinero etc. Es un sin parar pero muy bien. Pues si, tenia sobrepoblacion pero ya se han ido 2 a Holanda, 2 en adopcion, 2 en acogida. Se iran 2 mas dentro de unas 3 semanas a su casa de adopcion asi que fenomenal. Ahora necesito parar un poco porque lo ultimo ha sido muy estresante. Tengo que llevar varios perros al veterinario, castrar/esterelizar y eso tambien requiere su tiempo. Ya tomare las riendas de nuevo dentro de poco para seguir con esta lucha.
...................................
I have many photos but they all have to be edited and I just donot have the time for it. Thanks to my now many volunteers I have found various good adoptants, aswell in Spain, they are helping me with funds (a calender for example). It is non stop but really amazing! I had overbooking at the kennel with 17 but now I only have 11. 2 to Holland, 2 adopted, 2 in foster. In two or three weeks 2 others will go to their forever home so this is really great! I have to stop now for a while (not long) because the last weeks/month have exhausted me and I have to neuter almost all of them, have to take various to the vet etc. I will take on more once this has been organised.

por fin!/finally!

Por fin un momento para escribir! He podidio sacarlos a todos!!! Asi he estado de liada. Analiticas, veterinario, tratamientos, recojerlos, cuidarlos, mimarlos......etc Pero saque a todos los que vi. Los ultimos 3 el miercoles pasado. Ahora mismo hay 17! Y hay bastantes dias que estoy sola para cuidarlos y eso dos veces al dia, asi que un poco agotada si que estoy, pero....FELIZ!!! Ahora hace falta encontrarles adoptantes. Ya se que habran entrado mas, seguro. Ya vere lo que puedo hacer con los siguientes. Es plena temporada.
Hoy ha sido un dia de lujo! 4 ayudantes! Aproveche para ir al vet y preparar los tratamientos para "el turno de la tarde" que me lo hacen tambien unos voluntarios. Ahora hay muchisimo trabajo.
......................................................................
Finally a moment to write! I have been able to safe all!! Therefor I am so busy. Tests, vet visits, treatments, pick them up, take care of them, give them love.....etc. But I have been able to take the ones I saw there out, The last 3 last wednesday. I have 17 in total now! And there are many days that I am on my own at the kennel and that twice a day, so I am a little exhausted but ....HAPPY! Now I have to find adoptions for them. I know that there are more to come or already have, for sure. I will see what I can do for them aswell. It is high season now.
Today was a luxury day! 4 volununteers to help! I took the chance and went to the vet and prepared all medicines for the afternoon shift, done by other volunteers. There is a lot to do now.
