https://www.thedodo.com/the-pain-in-spain-the-saving-of-the-galgos-1102353256.html Makes you think what a horrible world we live in theres having a working animal and having the respect to cull it properly

 

 

Before the dogs are used to hunt, they are starved to make them hungry for the prey.

Good hunting dogs are "rewarded" by not being violently slain, and they are still often kept chained in stinking "zulos," underground bunkers soiled with feces.

and from some sort of animal rights website,so I'd take that with a pinch of salt.

my mother in law lived in spain and got involved in spanish rescue for dogs after seeing how shit it was over there. She found a box of new born puppies in a communal bin area waiting for the bin men to chuck the box of live puppies in the bin lorry, all the while their starving etc in the box . My dog vinny was hardly fed as a puppy and developed ricketts , he ended up breaking a leg so the owner left him on the doorstep of what is effectively known as a "killing station" for dogs . Luckily for him my mother in laws friend found him there and saved his life by taking him on and paying for his vets bills .

 

This is him when they found the poor b*****d

 

 

This is him now

 

 

Hes 8 stone and 78cm to his shoulders . In a alternate fantasy universe me and him would catch a plane over to spain and chase his old owner through the town and over a cliff . But im skint and cant afford the pane fare so i'll have to make do with slagging him off on the internet

 

Would he have been some sort of shepherd breed/type of dog out there?

 

he's got a double dew claw I notice,isn't that something great pyrenees or kangals are known for?

 

 

 

We were told he was a Spanish Mastiff(Mastine)/Pointer as that is what the woman who we got him from was told by someone out there . Ive looked for hours and hours and hours online to try and pin a more accurate breed on to him . Ive looked at countless pics of spanish mastiffs and their all heavy heavy dogs with lots of loose skin so im 90% sure he isnt one of them . The pointer bit im not sure of either .

 

The closest looking i can find is a anatolian shepherd which is linked with the kangal . In the welsh game fair as me and my mrs were milling around a stall one of the shopkeepers asked us is he was a kangal . In a carpark by pets at home a lady asked me if the dog in the boot was a anatolian shepherd . I told her i want sure but she could have a look . She had a squint and said she had met lots of anatolians before and their was definetly anatolian in him. In a pets at home shop in llanelli after the game fair one of the staff asked if he was a anatolian .

 

So hes looking likely to be that type of breed . In the anatolian books ive bought most of them have black muzzles and he doesnt . Ive seen pics of all white ones so its not out of the question . Hes white everywhere but along the ridge of his back theirs a faint whiff of ginger and i do mean a faint whiff . i notice it but if anybody was in his company for a hour they probably wouldnt notice it . He also has a corkscrew tail when hes not lazily moping around the living room

 

Even though it doesnt matter as my mrs always says i cant help but pick at the scab of not knowing . Im the same with my american bulldog/rottweiler cross . Trying to find a more likely breed for them has become a bit of a hobby, thats the problem of taking dogs on from unknown people

 

EDIT Also we asked at the vet as to whether the double dew claws needed to be taken off as they are quite floppy but they said there was blood vessells going to them or around them and it would be a bigger procedure than necessary for a dog that isnt a working dog

couple of pups for sale today

[mushroom 13,174]

Just on hols and went past a shop today took my little boy over for a look and couldn't believe they have dogs for sale in glass pens still..shi tzsu an labs..even had bull terriers all looking sad hot and lifeless...I take it they have no rspca type organisation iver here ?

Funnily enough I had to get dickhead's frontline on Sunday and the vets was shut so I went into a pet shop for the first time since moving here.... Same!!!

 

Pups/kittens in glass cages etc so I asked where do they go at night? That led to an uncomfortable silence (for them ) until they sheepishly replied nowhere.

 

They made this illegal on the rambla which had a tradition of being a place to buy pets. Yet they allowed it to remain in the shops, strange.

Now that is f***ing rubbish mate
