The endless rescue work of Angie McCready, on the Costa Blanca

Angie moved to the Southern Costa Blanca inland from Alicante 9 years ago from the UK. She hadn't realized the plight of dogs here until she arrived. She was shocked, outraged, and felt she needed to do something. She was soon bottle feeding puppies that had been found dumped in bins, picking up strays from the street, and finding them new homes. Many didn't even go any further than Angie's home... She's a confirmed failed fosterer on more than one occasion. At the last count she has 11 ranging from quite small dogs to a Spanish Mastiff who is the gentlest dog ever.

11th: From Angie "The vet called this morning to see the puppies. They are all doing really well. She gave them all another anti-biotic jab to aid with the healing of their wounds which are healing really well. The swollen elbow is looking much better now, and the scabs are dropping off their injuries. 

Flint has had 3 bottle feeds today and just wants cuddling all the time! 

Thank you to everybody who is following these adorable fighting Pod puppies and to those that have donated. We couldnt do this without you."

11th: From Angie: "Missy is so happy. There's been big steps taken with Missy, all in the right direction. She now greets people at the gate..still keeping a distance, but follows them up the driveway along with the rest of the gang, WAGGING HER TAIL!

She now also follows them into the house and jumps up on the sofa opposite to where they sit instead of staying outside hiding.

My friend came over the other day to help me with the pups and she ventured up to Carol. Normally i ask people not to make eye contact or speak to her, but Carol stretched her hand out and said "hello Missy" and she LICKED HER HAND!!!!! Huge steps for Missy. Here she is this morning having done about 30 laps of the garden playing chase me with Libby."
