🐾 February 1st is World Galgo Day and officially marks the end of hunting season in Spain. Today, tens of thousands of galgos and other sighthounds are routinely destroyed by their owners in the most inhumane ways with no consequences.

The reality of what happens to these dogs makes my spine shiver with complete anger and frustration. As you know, we have a rescue Galgo, Darko. The most elegant, loyal and comical animal who makes my heart burst every time I look at him.

He was found, rescued and his life was saved - But thousands of them don’t get the chance. They’re hung from trees, tied to tracks, thrown down wells and left to starve on the streets and abandoned at the side of motorways.

Can you see why I’m so passionate about this?

I’m so grateful to the associations that rescue and rehabilitate the Galgos and other sighthound breeds because without them there would be no Darko. Imagine there was no Darko! oh no, no, no!

How can this happen to a dog that was once so highly regarded within society?
Why is this still happening after all the campaigns and evidence?

My mission is to educate and raise awareness for this gorgeous breed and to help with the rescue and rehoming of these dogs after rehabilitation.

Thank you to , and to name a few for all the amazing work you do.

Please comment if you know of any associations in need of donations as I'd like to help.
Going forward, I will be donating money from profits made with my tshirts and monkeys.

If you can donate, please do.
If you're looking to adopt a dog, please consider a Galgo, a greyhound or a podenco.

They're magical.

Thank you for reading. 🐾

Imagine the boops!
