There are still miracles!  There are still people who have a heart for an abandoned Podenco!  We, at Pro Animal Gomera (PAG) and Förderverein Animal La Gomera (FALG), find it sensational.

 

A Podenco, that was apparently abandoned, was seen many times In Las Hayas, a village just above Valle Gran Rey.  He was thin to the bone and was sometimes fed by tourists.

 

Not every tourist knows about the local animal protection organization, Pro Animal Gomera (PAG), so Stefanie flew back to Germany without making contact.  Now at home, she could not get the Podenco, which she had named “Lupo”, out of her head.  She searched for, found and made contact with the animal protection association, FALG, the German sister organization of PAG.  She asked us to search for Lupo and, if possible, to send him to Germany.  She wanted to give him a new home.

 

Lupo was found and was placed into a foster home, where he was de-wormed and introduced to the local Vet.  He received the necessary immunizations, an EU Pet Passport, and was micro-chipped.  He is now waiting for a flight so that he can finally go to his new home.

 

Lupo is a fabulous dog, a Podenco!  He sleeps on his blanket, doesn’t chase the cats, plays with his ball and loves to be petted.  He is very beautiful and we are all happy that this special dog will be getting a new home in Germany.

 

Thank you Stefanie and family!
