Anna Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Oh NickyHow could you resist????Seriously, these dogs have such a good temperament and just so want to please that they make fantastic pets. So playful yet so gentle with everyone and so intellegent that they are very easy to train.Go on, you won't regret choosing one of these pups who are just desperately looking for their loving forever home.Best wishesAnna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicky Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 i've never heard of a galgo, what are they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnolia Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Galgos are Spanish dogs. They're a bit like a greyhound but smaller. They have the sweetest of natures but are terribly abused in Spain by hunters. These pups were saved along with their mother from a hunter who used the bitch for breeding. i don't know the full circumstances of the mother but it's quite common for breeding bitches to be locked away and used as a puppy machine. The mother was one of those puppy machines and has now passed away. The puppies are currently near Toulouse in foster care and are all fit and healthy (if you can't travel that far we can always help to get your chosen pup to you). I've attached a short video link of my dogs (the brown one is my podenco x which is another of Spains abused breeds and the fluffy one is my poodle x) playing with Fudge who is one of the litter. She's the little brindle and she's currently with us before I take her to her forever home next week. At the end of the video you'll see a dog with a very long curly tail. That's Joy. He's another Podenco who's looking for a forever home. You can see a write-up about him on the forum as he's the one with the mutilated nose.http://s271.photobucket.com/albums/jj160/marmitesock/?action=view¤t=Playingdogs.flvIf you want to know more about what L'Europe des Levriers please look on their website.

Limousin Lass Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 The bottom 2 look very like a labrador x, they all look adorable and make me feel very broody but my OH would have a fit if I took on another animal.Good Luck with the re-homing.

Chantemerlière Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 All our best wishes go with you Magnolia, we only wish that we had the space to help you. I know that they are not Greyhounds but they remind me so much of my my childhood in Ireland and my Grandfathers Greyhounds! Keep up the good work and Susanne will be in touch re: doggy jackets.

Magnolia Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Yes we do believe that Ophelia is a labrador x galgo. She's a real little bundle. We had an incident recently where all of the name tags disappeared off of the puppies collars......that is except for Ophelia's! [8-)] That's got to be a lab in her hasn't it?!Thanks for the support everyone. It's you guys that keep me going as well as the dogs. Virtual support is a great thing [:D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
