Cervantes es un Podenco quien fue rescatado por la assoc. KIMBA en Cadiz. Cervantes estaba atrapado en un cepo, el mismo con todo la fuerza que tenia, desde el fondo de su alma, tube que morder su mismo pierna para quitar el cepo de su pata.. increible el dolor en que este perro ha sufrido!!!!!!!!! En manos de KIMBA el empezo a aprender que hay otro vida, no solo lo que hacen los cazadores... ahora Cervantes vive en los Estados Unidos, con la ayuda de www.galgorescue.org Cervantes ya tiene una familia encantadores quien hacen TODO por el.. incluso haciendo una pata nueva!!! Asi es.. haz clic en el enlace y veras como Cervantes ya esta famoso por ser tratado de un equipo de veterinarios quien estan haciendo un nuevo pata...

Introducing Cervantes!!!
Cervantes is a podenco who was rescued by the assoc. KIMBA in Cadiz. He was cuaght in a hunters trap, he himself with all his strength from the bottom of his soul chewed through his leg to free himself from the trap! the pain he suffered was tremendous. KIMBA without doubt never failed and took him in. They showed him a new life, one free from hunters. Between KIMBA and www.galgorescue.org the plans on recouperation were made for his adoption in the USA. He found his forever family and he lives happily and wants for nothing. Infact he has made history with a vet team and is on the link where he has been made a new prosthetic leg and has become famous!!! Its everything he deserves and more!

What a fantastic family, an ispirational team and an overwhelmingly astonishing Podenco!

Estimados amigos y padrinos:

¿Dónde estáis????? Os recuerdo que tenemos una cena este sábado para intentar preparar el Albergue de cara al invierno y coger algo de fuerza para terminar el año. Y no me ha respondido NADIE. Bueno, no es cierto, Belén, que espero que al final te animes. Un subinspector de policía... y algunas personas que lamentablemente no pueden venir.

Ya más que por nosotros, es por el esfuerzo que Carmen y su marido están haciendo para ayudar a los caballos. Así que, recordad:

CENA este sábado 24 DE OCTUBRE,

en el Restaurante Snack Bar LA TERRAZA,

Cuesta del Tajo, 7. (Es la prolongación de la famosa calle peatonal SAN MIGUEL, en TORREMOLINOS, a mitad de la escalera).

PRECIO 15 €.
LLEGADA DE 20:30 A 21:00 HORAS.

Es un sitio muy agradable, va a estar lleno de buena gente, amante de los animales, y vais a comer muy bien porque Carmen es una fantástica cocinera.

Por favor, confirmad vuestra asistencia para que Carmen pueda hacerse una idea de cuánto producto debe comprar.

Como os dije la última vez, este email va a llegar a personas que, desgraciadamente, no estáis muy cerca de nosotros, así que, no os preocupéis.

Recibid un fuerte abrazo y nuestro más sincero agradecimiento por todo de parte del Equipo del CYD SANTA MARÍA.

Virginia

Un fantastico Labor!!!!! Fijate lo que se puede hacer por un perrito que no se ha podido mover sus piernas traseros, pensar..

http://www.ciudadanimal.org/
fijate en quien se hace que un perro pierdan su movimiento.. y a quien se hace todo para que se puede moverse y como... son distintos verdad..?? pero esto es real y pasan y pasan y pasan... un labor buen hecho por un assoc. que no paran nunca en hacer cuidos a un animal quien necesitan ayuda y cariño- dignidad y vida!

Por chiqui, esto - un final feliz, no ha sido posible, al final despues de TODO lo que la assoc. ofrecido en rehabilitacion, veterinario, todos, ni mencionar gastos, chiqui morio. Lo siento Chiqui, no tengo palabras.

check out the link from the assoc. look at the video and think.. who could do something that makes a dog lose movement behind.. and look at what happens by who to make it possible that he regains movement and becomes dignified again. Lives again! Its a hard labor and one that sadly happens over and over again, 365 days a year but always achieved for the best of the animal so they may regain their life.

For chiqui, a happy ending just was not to be, after all the assoc. have done, in care, rehabilitaion, veterinary care, not to mention the costs, Chiqui past away. So sorry Chiqui, I am speechless.
Te invito a ver una pagina distinto, especial, de una tienda de galgos y mascotas. Cuando ya es el momento de decir Adios a tu mejor amigo, esto es una manera en que puedes dar le un homenaje con un toque especial. De un equipo quien entiende este dolor, pero la necesidad de hacer algo en memoria.

I invite you to check out a page which is special, different. A link which guides you to a store for galgos and of course pets, however when its time to say goodbye to your best friend its a beautiful way to make a memorial and say goodbye in this way. This is made by a team who have dealt with loss and so will be tactful with feelings which are delicate at such a sad time.

IN THE NAME OF THE SPANISH GALGO... In their fight, their justice and right to live ...

THE 3RD FIESTA DE GALGOS TAKES PLACE ON 6.DECEMBER 2009
WHERE:EL REFUGIO DEL BURRITO, FUENTE DE PIEDRA, ANTEQUERA.
CONTACT:RAFA, IVAN, 669505703 EL REFUGIO DEL BURRITO. CHARLOTTE. 659006107 (COMDELRIO@HOTMAIL.COM)

EL TECERO FIESTA DE GALGOS ESTA CELEBRADO EL DIA 6.DICIEMBRE,
DONDE:EL REFUGIO DEL BURRITO, FUENTE DE PIEDRA, ANTEQUERA
CONTACTOS ARRIBA.

This day was made in celebration of the Spanish galgo, to name their plight but grant them positivity, it is essential i their plight and honour that they become recognised as a pet, not a tool and then thrown away.. not an item of ownership with no thought for their welfare.. the spanish galgo has a right to live and it is our duty to celebrate the galgo and offer them worldwide help.

My aim, personally i aim to hold a unique education centre, something different, something which offer people the chance to come and see for themselves the love of a galgo.. to fall, hook line and sinker for the most serene canine, but who suffers the most cruelest of existences... in their name, I leave you with my letter Sr. galguero.





Señor Galguero!

Señor galguero, I sat waiting and waiting today as time passed and my hunger grew. You never came, even though we who are here fear your footsteps. You may just bring us those crumbs of bread which we all have to fight for, even though we wish there was enough for us all. It's cold in here tonight and the floor is damp, I cannot sit and I cannot lie down but for you"my master" I will wait in the cold and feel the hunger. When I saw you last you came and took my mother, I still await her return but she just has not come back.. I don't understand Señor Galguero, for I am a good Galgo and I try my hardest. Can you bring my Mother back for I miss her terribly, and amongst the other dogs we are all chained up and behind bars? Can you bring her back Señor galguero for I miss her, I will do all I can for you in return?

The morning follows and its colder than cold, my body is trembling and am so very hungry. My bones hurt when I try to sit but for you Señor Galguero I will not complain. As dawn arrives I hear what are familiar voices and the door screeches open, I think we are going to play today. I don't understand why you are so very angry with us all and your boot has more than once thrown me acros the floor, as now I see you angry with the pretty white galga in the corner, I didnt see her do anything wrong but while she feels the pain, today it is not my turn. The door opens and we are all told to get into th box with wheels. The mud is wet and we scramble into the tiny trailer. Señor Galguero did you forget a rug to sit on? For you Señor I will sit with the rest - this way we are warmer as we are crampt together. We arrive at the fields and its play time, we run and chase and are ordered to catch the running hare that crosses the field. The pretty white galga who felt the boot is struggling to win, for she is lame and bleeding. Señor galguero I hear you all laughing and cheering, and I dont understand it? I feel cold today, and so very very hungry. We move across the fields for what seems like forever, the white pretty Galga could not keep up, she was left behind to find her way. They didnt wait for you "pretty white Galga", though I tried, but Señor Galguero hit me with a stick and I am shivering so I must run faster and faster, I am sorry pretty white Galga.

At the end of the longest day I am so hungry I feel so empty and raw, I am so tired and weak, did I not run fast enough master, for I tried all I could? We return in the box minus the white galga, and thrown into what is our hole with chains and irons.. a stick of bread all green and blue is thrown at us, but the biggest and faster ones reach it first. For me, my hunger reigns on. Señor galguero as you laugh with the men - did you forget my share? I did good today for I didnt get left behind like the pretty white galga, I did good didnt I Señor galguero? I didnt catch your lunch but I ran as fast as my legs would carry me, all for you my master. The night is colder than ever and the floor outside is covered with crunchy white clouds, it's all frozen and Ive not lived long enough to know what that is, I am sure my Mother would have explained. Where did she go, she never came back? I hear the footsteps yet again and I crouch in fear yet I hope there is food for my empty stomach. Today its my turn, alone, Señor galguero grabs my collar pulls me and gives me a beating for I have not been as gooder galgo as I thought. I limp to the cold crunchy white grass and we move along into the woods. I think this is a special day today as we are alone, and I hope I can catch his lunch for him today if my weakness lets me. We reach a hidden bearing of trees, and I smell a smell I don't recognize, but there is a familiarity as I see a body there on the tree, what is she doing Señor galguero like that? I am so cold and hungry I dont know why we are here, it smells not nice. Señor Galguero puts a wire round my neck and I sit patiently as perhaps we are going for a longer walk.I shiver as I am frozen and I almost cant feel my body in cold. All of a sudden there is a rope placed on the wire, I don't understand this.. but the tree is getting closer like the galga on the other tree. I am hoisted into the air, my feet begin to scramble I cant place my front paws on the ground for the wire is hurting my neck.. Señor Galguero what's wrong why can't I breathe? I hear him say "play the piano Galgo" and I don't understand as he walks of saying "theres more of you!" I try and try and try but I cannot reach the gound, the pain is intense around my neck now and I cannot breathe, cutting m skin he blood runs warm down my neck chocking me in my mouth. I was a good Galgo I tried my best, I just didnt keep up with the rest. I am scrambling and my back paws are weak for they are what is holding me up. I have been here hours now, and I am giving up, Señor Galguero I think I am giving my life for you. I close my eyes, and yet in the distance I see the most beautiful figure, so sleek and bright there is a white glow around her, she looks in the distance like the other on the tree..closer and closer she comes for me, she came back after all this time, my mother my beautiful Mother has come for me. It's alright now she tells me, Señor galguero has gone and we head on now to "Rainbow Bridge" where no more Galgos suffer, we are all happy and run free. Come and see!
I close my eyes as the sun sets, I fought all day to stay with my master and its taken all this time.I'm free now, I feel no pain and my Mother says we will look down now and help the good people try to save more galgos who need rescuing. we will be like Guardian angels from above.Goodbye Señor Galguero.This letter is written in dedication to all those galgos who are suffering like this, for now the end of the hunt season has finished the slaughters begin. It feels at times like there is no way forward, as I cry tears, they are of fight and desire and will to impact the plight of the Galgos, I cannot do this alone. So I constantly look for publicity, TV breaks, daytime shows, Radios, someone famous to back this cause. Above all, I have promised the galgos, every single day of my life I will work to protect them. In dedication to the serene Galgo, the associations who work 365 days a year and no fame nor thanks for what they do. This story is multiplied by the tens of thousands of Galgos right now as you read this, for the end of the hunting season is here, and the slaughters and abandonmen begins. Last years rescues alone reached a massive 50.000 galgos abandoned, those rescued. Numbers unknown are the stories like this one, or thrown in wells and the cruelty continues. While hunting hares with Galgos continues so will the slaughters and the number increase.
Señor Galguero"s" you have blood on your hands.

Man's bestfriend, let down by man!"May you the Galgo risebck up in society and become the household pet you so deserve to be!"Carlota and Ambo Ambasadog. for information on how to help the Galgos.
