Extremely upsetting news about little podenca, Angie. News of Ken & Jenny & there's another galga arrived, Lizzy.

Extremely upsetting news about little podenca, Angie, who seemed to be doing well in the care of Angela Stacey, her foster carer. She was fine yesterday bright as a button. This morning Angela found Angie had a temperature & wouldn't eat or drink so she took her to the vet who says there is a problem with her liver and she will now stay at the vets for a couple of days on a drip. He told Tina she definitely could not travel for the next 4-5 weeks. Come on "Little Pod", you've come so far.

Funding for Angie comes out of the money Angela & others raise on their stall where they sell new and second hand items. You can find them every Monday between 10am - 4pm above the Mercadona (next to Pet World) at the tolls for the La Zenia exit AP7.

 

 

 

 

Angela and her team of volunteers offer support to charities such as Canisax, Pepa and now also Galgos del Sol.

If anyone is in the area please show them your support by paying them a visit and helping them to raise money for all three worthwhile charities.

 

 

 

 

The photo at the bottom of this post is of the banner Tina & Gaynor had made recently to hang on Mercadona's wall behind the stall.

Remember Jenny below who I posted about hereA lady in Murcia had found her on Tuesday 8th February and picked her up. She needs a leg amputating, poor girl!

And poor Ken .. below .. who I posted about here is recovering from a spinal operation. He has started to move slightly, which is great news but it's early days.

Below: Meet Lizzy who was rescued from a killing station a couple of days ago. She is terrified, absolutely scared out of her wits. She is covered in scars, some very large and shakes in fear when you look at her. It's obvious she has been terribly abused. Tina couldn't get her out of the kennel so left her to rest but today managed to take her to the vets to be spayed.

Don't forget, go buy something from Angela's stall outside Mercadona, la Zenia. Look for this banner below above her stall.

Thank you for highlighting "Little Pod" and her condition and also our stall. We try so hard to do what we can for these abused animals. I just wish we could do more to help Tina. You also try hard but its an uphill struggle x
