Adoption

Galgo in the spotlight

 Paco 7215 - Male - 7 years  / Kinte  7207  - Male - 1  year

2 “CHRISTMAS GALGO CHILDREN" in NEED

PACO 7215 was dumped in a shelter and rescued from the killing station on the 6th of June 2024, just in time, where he escaped the planned death in extremis. He is a wise, kind, beautiful, gentle 7-year-old gentleman who knows what life is and he hopes that something better is yet to come.

KINTE 7207 was found that same day, exhausted and in danger of dying, in the vast campo where he was abandoned to his fate and, judging by his condition, had been wandering around for a long time.

2 Outcast galgos, 2 betrayed souls, both victims of the horrible Spanish “galgo culture”. Their survival instinct and hope for a better life have proven their tormentors wrong. One a year old, almost a puppy, the other an older wise dog who was born in miserable circumstances somewhere in the field in Spain. And who knows, maybe one day they will be accepted into your heart and your house and home… Maybe it was written in the stars.

Maybe one of them will fit into your family….

Thank you for reading this.

Affectionately,

Mireille

Adopt  Kinte 7207   - Adopt  Paco 7215

All greyhounds that are offered for adoption in the photographs below have spent the necessary time in quarantine; their blood is tested, they are vaccinated, castrated or sterilized and have (usually) had their teeth cleaned. They have the chip, their European passport and all necessary documents; as validated below and witnessed by a valid and licensed veterinarian. The dogs are, unless mentioned otherwise, kind, affectionate, gentle and calm animals that can (usually) live together in easy harmony with other dogs and pets. Children are no problem except that they may not scare these gentle and sometimes timid dogs. If the dog has a specific story then you will be told; most of them have been "dumped" or brought to us by the "galguero’s" and since have proved themselves at the shelter. Some are found left behind at vacant houses or are tied up with a metal bow around the leg; left behind to die. Many of them carry the physical spurs of their past, which translates to old scars, but except for that, the dogs are in good health. Others among them have been mutilated. When you wish more information you can always call to the responsible of your region or take up contact with Greyhounds in Nood Belgium. The adoption fee is 350 € for members and adopters who are membre and 380 € for new adopters for whom the membership fee for the first year is included. The registration of your name in Belgium is included in the contribution. Thanks for your visit to our site; we appreciate your trust and support!
