1st May: Happy International Day Of The Podenco! A big shout out to all the lovely pods & galgos out there (& a huge thank you to all the forever families, allies, charities & shelters - we love you!). To date, I haven’t shared photos of how I looked before my life with Daddies J & M, but it’s important to raise awareness, so here goes… pics 1 & 2 me now happy, healthy & living my best life, pics 3 & 4 me at the amazing shelter @sosanimalessalobrena then pic 5 a few days after I’d just arrived in London.

💛❤️ ONE WEEK AGO ❤️💛 We can’t believe a week has already passed since so many of you joined us in London to give these dogs a much needed voice. We have so many people to thank - without you the day would not have been possible or had the impact that it did. Firstly, the stewards who kept us all safe and helped us cross many busy London roads. Many of you had never done anything like this before and really stepped out of your comfort zone. Thank you so much! We also want to thank: 💛 Teresa Garcia from @plataformanac for joining us on the day from Spain and her powerful words ❤️ Helena Jackson from @projectgalgo 💛 Steve Allan from @hopeforpodencos and the rest of the HFP UK team ❤️ @missclkitchener for setting up our website 💛 Sarah Rickman for designing our web and social images and our placards ❤️ Iris from @crafted_films for filming the event 💛 @vanessamunnings for PR ❤️ @jeffmo69 for photography (including this shot that really encapsulates the way we all feel about these amazing dogs) 💛 Eunice for photography ❤️ Elaine from @houndheartcollars for making the collars 💛 Linda from @jasper_valenciano for making the vests Also a special thanks to: ❤️ Sarah @tai_the_galgotri who connected us all and made this happen 💛 Polly Mathewson and Martin French for your tips and ideas after forging the way in 2016 with your Podenco March which provided so much inspiration.

Han sido muchas las manifestaciones en las distintas ciudades del país gritando al unísono y dando visibilidad a la realidad de la caza, actividad cruel y sanguinaria que da muerte a 25 millones de animales en nuestro país cada temporada . Badajoz no podía ser menos, y ahí hemos estado nosotras, junto a particulares y varios colectivos. Gracias a @plataformanac por su organización y por unirnos cada año por esta causa. #stopcazacongalgosyotrasrazas #stopcaza #noalacaza #noalacaza2024 #galgosdecasanodecaza #stopmaltratoanimal #denuncia #conciencia #educa #badajoz

Yesterday, we joined a peaceful protest in London supporting Spanish dogs and saying no to how they are treated in their country. These poor dogs are used to hunt, chained up outside and then abandoned or killed at the end of the hunting season when they are no longer needed. We were introduced to our gorgeous rescue, Atticus, two years ago and we're so lucky he came into our lives. He was found with a rope around his neck, skin and bone and with a nasty bite to his leg. Today, he is a healthy, funny, loving boy sleeping peacefully next to me after yesterdays busy day. We walked with other cities and countries for him and all of the other mistreated dogs. It was an early start at 4:45am and a long day with 21,000 steps walked, getting home at 10pm, but worth it for these angels. We also got to say a quick hello to @princessbeatriceroyal who was walking past with her family 👋 It's hard to think how people can treat defenceless animals this way. There is a lot of cruelty happening in the world right now, and we need to be the voice for those who can't fight - animals and people. Thank you to those who walked with us, your support means everything. #PlataformaNAC #StopGalgueros #NoALaCaza #NoALaCaza4F #NoALaCaza2024 #FreeSpanishHoundsLondon #podenco #Galgo #notohunting @free.spanish.hounds
Hundreds of people from across the UK and their Spanish rescue dogs took part in a march from the Spanish Embassy to Trafalgar Square in London, demanding an end to hunting with dogs in Spain, where up to a massive 100,000 hunting dogs are cruelly killed or abandoned at the end of the season every year. The podenco and galgo breeds of Spain are not recognised as pets by the country’s animal welfare laws as they are merely regarded as ‘hunting tools’, which has earned these dogs the moniker of ‘the invisible dogs of Spain’. Every February, when the hunting season in Spain ends, Spanish animal rights group Plataforma NAC (www.plataformanac.org) calls for peaceful demonstrations across Europe, demanding an end to hunting in Spain and in particular hunting with dogs. For more information, @free.spanish.hounds . . . #rescuesdogsofinstagram #podencosofinstagram #galgosofinstagram #PlataformaNAC #StopGalgueros #NoALaCaza #NoALaCaza4F #NoALaCaza2024 #FreeSpanishHoundsLondon #streetdogs @hopeforpodencos @galgosdelsol @suspirosdecuatropatas
Today 2 of my hoomans attended the @free.spanish.hounds peaceful protest with @plataformanac , to support my distant cousins in Spain (especially) - the Galgos and Podencos No A La Caza - No to hunting (with dogs in Spain) We walked from Hyde Park Corner to Trafalgar Square, raising awareness for the horrific events that take place once the Spanish Hunting Season is over. What a wonderful day it was, meeting so many like minded people hoping to provide a voice for Galgos and Podencos and aiming to stop this sick and inhumane activity. #PlataformaNAC #StopGalgueros #NoALaCaza #NoALaCaza4F #NoALaCaza2024 #FreeSpanishHoundsLondon #freethegalgo #freethepodenco The following information is from: https://www.diadelgalgo.com A SHORT, BRUTAL EXISTENCE Galgos are mainly used for hunting or coursing hare. During the annual hunting season that runs from October to January, many live in cramped dark sheds when they are not coursing, spending their days confined and neglected. Training techniques are barbaric and include towing Galgos from cars, trucks and motorcycles at high speeds. Known as Galgueros, hunters dispose of Galgos at the end of hunting season in the most horrific ways imaginable... hung from trees, thrown into wells, starved, beaten to death or abandoned. It is estimated that thousands of Galgos are killed every year. A favorite among hunters to dispose of unwanted Galgos is called "piano playing". The galgo is tied around the neck and hung in a tree so that the poor dog barely reaches the ground with its hind paws, trying to balance and "dancing" back and forth with the back legs and paws, barely on the ground, to avoid strangulation. Being killed in this way is a slow death and that the dog experiences panic, anxiety, despair and unimaginable pain. The suffocation can take hours and sometimes even days. In the end, when the Galgo can no longer manage to stand on its hind legs, exhausted in the snare, the dog finally suffocates to death. Please do go to their website to keep reading - I have ran out of caption space to include the whole thing.
Joined the “Free the Spanish Hound” protest in London today. Was great to be part of this worthy cause and bump into some familiar faces. #PlataformaNAC #StopGalgueros #NoALaCaza #NoALaCaza4F #NoALaCaza2024 #freespanishhoundslondon
Today we joined many other podencos and galgos on a peaceful protest in London in support of Spanish animal rights organisation @plataformanac who are highlighting the plight of hunting dogs in Spain with protests around Europe to say No to Hunting with Dogs. Hunting dogs are not covered by animal welfare laws in Spain. It was wonderful to meet up with @sullythepod @kodak_atlas_willow_chance and many more.

Happening right now in Trafalgar Square! 🇪🇸 🐶 60,000 to 80,000 dogs violently killed every year in Spain at the end of the hunting season, when they are no longer wanted. @free.spanish.hounds #PlataformaNAC #StopGalgueros #NoALaCaza #NoALaCaza4F #NoALaCaza2024 #FreeSpanishHoundsLondon
Walk this way (talk this way)!!! The outfit is on & I’m ready to meet my fellow pods, galgos & ally pooches & humans for the peaceful protest today, in support of Spanish hunting dogs.

We are ready! Tomorrow we go to London to raise awareness for hunting dogs in Spain. Every year, after the hunting season between 60,000-80,000 hunting dogs are discarded, killed, abused and abandoned. How are there no rights for these gorgeous dogs? Hugo and Hudson are the lucky ones! #freethepodenco #freethegalgo #plataformanac #stopgalgueros #noalacaza #noalacaza4f #noalacaza2024 #freespanishhoundslondon #rescue #rescuedogsoflondon #adoptdontshop #podenco #podencolovers #podencocanarios #sighthounds #galgos
Back from my 12-month Instagram hiatus with a very important PSA: The beginning of February marks the end of the hunting season in Spain, which leaves thousands of galgos & podencos (hunting dogs) to be abused, killed or discarded by their owners. On the first weekend of February, animal lovers gather across Spain to protest about the treatment of the dogs and call for a ban on the hunt with dogs. This Saturday (3rd February) @free.spanish.hounds are organising the very first March in London, spreading much awareness in the UK. Hopefully, our nation of dog-lovers will come out in full force to prevent the mistreatment of these sweet creatures & show support for the charities who help them. Check out the tagged accounts for more info, and see y’all on Saturday 🫡 #PlataformaNAC #StopGalgueros #NoALaCaza #NoALaCaza4F #NoAlaCaza2024 #diadelgalgo
February 1st is the end of the hunting season in Spain. Today, thousands of Galgos and Podencos will be suffering a cruel fate - once the hunting season closes, they're no longer of any use, and the Spanish government refuses to protect these beautiful dogs under welfare laws, so the abuse they suffer is unprecedented. Our two beautiful boys were both rescued by @hopeforpodencos and are now thankfully living the life every dog deserves, but there are thousands every year who aren't so lucky. On Saturday (3rd Feb) a peaceful protest will be taking place in London to help raise awareness of the plight of the Spanish hunting dogs. It has been arranged by @free.spanish.hounds to protest against the horrific treatment these dogs suffer, and to call for a ban on the hunt with dogs. There are also similar protests taking place across Spain and other areas of Europe this weekend in conjunction with @plataformanac Unfortunately we aren't able to attend the protest in person, but if you're in the London area please visit @free.spanish.hounds for all of the information you'll need to take part. Help us raise awareness and give these forgotten breeds a voice. Together we are stronger 💪🏻 ------------------ #togetherwearestronger #freethegalgo #freethepodenco #freespanishhounds #NoAlaCaza #noalacaza4f #stopgalgueros #noalacaza2024 #freespanishhoundslondon #rescuedog #rescuedandloved #stopthehunt #podencosofinstagram #podenco_power #sighthounds #sighthoundawareness #spanishhounds

When Elaine and her husband first saw Myra, she was cowering in a corner of a kennel. @greyhoundsinneed.uk who brought her to the UK, were not sure that she was ready for adoption. She was very thin and showed visible signed of abuse but mainly, she was too nervous. That did not deter Elaine and her husband. Both have been involved with Greyhounds rescue for many years. However, even experienced owners like them could not have foreseen the enormity of the challenge ahead. ‘Myra was so terrified that she would throw herself at our windows almost non-stop until she was totally exhausted and collapsed. We couldn’t get anywhere near her and for a long time we were unable to touch her at all. Although she was terrified of us, she was also really scared of being left alone so we took turns to sleep in an armchair downstairs with her. ‘ The couple soon realised that Myra would benefit from the company of another dog and they adopted Tabby, a calm, confident greyhound. ‘After about a year, Myra came to me voluntarily for the first time - an incredible moment and I still feel emotional about it now.’ ‘Myra eventually became a loving, affectionate pet (with us at least, still no-one else can touch her).’ She is now 12 and although she is still very nervous around dogs, people and unfamiliar place, she copes as long as Elaine and her husband are with her. Thank you for being there for Myra! Join us on 3rd Saturday as we walk in a peaceful protest to support abused, traumatised dogs like Myra. #PlataformaNAC #StopGalgueros #NoALaCaza #NoALaCaza4F #NoALaCaza2024

Next up we have the story of amazing Maz ❤ "Mazinger (Maz) @mazinger_the_podenco was found abandoned in the mountains near Malaga in 2020, Helpers of the Pods and Dogs @helpersofthepodsanddogs began the process of rehoming him in the UK. Maz received interest regarding adoption but, the enquiries did not go any further. I saw him on one of @podencopair stories and made contact. Maz came to live on the south coast, near Brighton in April 2021. He is a 4 year old Podenco Ibicenco and is his family’s gentle giant. A big, gentle soul who loves everyone, people, dogs and cats. He is a jolly boy and very, very funny! A true clown! He is a busy Pod so has been introduced to the game of Flyball and is a registered member of Rapid Rascals Flyball Team @rapidrascals ." Thank you so much for sharing @kerriburnsrowden ! Join us on 3rd February in London (with or without your dog) to protest against Spanish hunter's diabolical treatment of these wonderful dogs...and the Spanish laws that allow such atrocities. We will march from Spanish Embassy to Trafalgar Square to say NO TO HUNTING WITH DOGS IN SPAIN.

"We met our Podenco, Atticus, nearly two years ago when he was rescued by family after being found walking a mountain area in Spain at the end of hunting season. He was skinny and had a rope tied round his neck. Our family took him in and fostered him until they could find a place in a shelter, but he didn't settle there and they worried he wouldn't be rescued. When visiting we learned about Atticus (then called Rojo) and visiting him. We decided we would rescue him that day and eventually we were able to get him over to the UK where he now lives peacefully with us in Birmingham, with his older sisters, Gigi (our other dog) and Beau (our cat). He's a wonderful and loving dog and has truly changed our lives in the best way." Thanks Jo for sharing the story of Atticus❤ look how happy he is now. On Saturday 3rd February humans and dogs will take to the London streets to protest the Spanish hunting laws and the way these precious dogs are treated.

❤ARWEN & GRYPHON ❤ "We adopted Gryphon in October 2020 from Greyhounds in Need. They found him on the streets in Spain and he was in a pretty bad state, extremely nervous and frightened. At some point in the past we think he had been hit on the head and his fur is missing around the area of the injury. As it hasn’t yet grown back I don’t think it ever will. He had trust issues and he would lie in the corner of the sofa and only move to eat and go for walks. It took him three months to finally come and lie on the bed in the kitchen/diner with us. He had an odd way of walking and running and an x-ray showed that his spine is fused at the lumbosacral level possible due to an injury in the past. Over the last two years Gryphon has had 24 sessions of hydrotherapy and is still having physiotherapy which is improving his walking and running. It is now just his dislike of rain that keeps him indoors! Our Arwen arrived in January 22 as a companion to Gryphon. She has helped to give him more confidence. She also came from Greyhounds in Need and she and Gryphon now live in Surrey." Thankyou Chris, they are both wonderful ❤ We will take to the London streets with our dogs on Saturday 3rd February to say NO to hunting with dogs in Spain.

Lovely Arwen was handed in by a hunter when she was no longer wanted. A happy girl she was adopted from @greyhoundsinneed.uk and joined Gryphon in Surrey. Gryphon was rescued off the streets. He was in a bad state, very nervous and frightened and showed signs of old injuries. He too was adopted from Greyhounds in Need. His owner said : ‘He had trust issues and he would lie in the corner of the sofa and only move to eat and go for walks. It took him three months to finally come and lie on the bed in the kitchen/diner with us’ In the last 2 years Gryphon has had hydrotherapy sessions and is still having physiotherapy which improved his walking and running. ’It is now just his dislike of rain that keeps him indoors!’ Join us on Saturday 3rd February and show your support for @plataformanac and the hunting dogs of Spain!

Button was rescued off the streets by @galgosdelsol and adopted from @greyhoundsinneed.uk in January 2022. At the end of that year we adopted Blanca who was handed in by her Galguero to a perrera. She was rescued by @galgosenfamilia and was treated for Leishmaniasis. We adopted her from @projectgalgo . In the summer of 2023 we fostered Mimi, who was rescued, along with 6 other Galgos, from appalling conditions by Associación Galgos del Sur. Mimi became one of Project Galgo’s failed fosters 😉 All three Galgos now live happily in Staffordshire. Thank for sharing their stories and we hope to see you on Saturday 3rd February! #freethegalgo #plataformanac #noalacaza #noalacaza2024 #stopgalgueros
