Merida and the dilemma she faces.
Merida came in with a broken leg. It’s been a battle and in a home it will definitely improve with consistent walking and routine.
It’s not 100% perfect and for that reason she can’t get a home. If we were amputate she would likely fly out.
Knowing she would get a home quicker with 3 legs is sad. Her four legs are not perfect but it’s not bad enough for three legs.
She’s inbetween and keeping the leg might just well keep her in a kennel for more years to come.
That’s why we need you to share… someone out there will except Merida and her limp now and again 🙏🏻❤️
Can we find that person?
She’s 3yrs old, shy but will improve greatly in a patient home 🏠

Sillero is a quiet boy around 4yrs old.
He walks gently on a lead, is good with other dogs, isn’t reactive or a barker in the centre… he’s just adorable ❤️
Sillero had to have his spleen removed but can live a good normal life.
He’s a nice easy addition to any existing group of dogs and may also be fine as an only dog.
He’s just a real sweetie 🥰
Plz share 🙏🏻❤️

@Xenta777 One day you must have a big house with a garden for all your cats 😻😻

Freida is just 18mths old and looking for a home.
As a young sociable female we are surprised she’s not been snapped up.
She’s wonderful on a lead, great with other dogs and caring towards people 😍
What you waiting for ?
Plz share ❤️🙏🏻

@CarlBovisNature Fantastic, top of my partner’s list of birds he wants to see.

Parker is still #missing

"Urgent He has now been missing since Saturday afternoon, and although we’re trying not to lose hope, we are becoming increasingly desperate. We have spent hours and hours searching day and night, covering every area we can think of."

Meet Ted, aged 2. He came to us after his owner passed away. He can be timid until he trusts you, but he’s already showing what a lovely boy he is.
Ted needs a quiet home without children. He may suit living with a calm, docile cat.

Cumbia is a 3yr old girl looking for a home.
She came from another shelter and is lovely and sociable.
There is no reason why this girl shouldn’t fly into a home immediately.
Will you share? 🙏🏻❤️

Lovely pictures of Tom in action taken by Ruff Life Photography 😍
Tom is another hunting dog left with untreated leishmania.
He was already in bad shape when he arrived. His skin was bad and his kidneys were strained.
He’s been treated now and is doing much better ❤️
Tom loves playing with a ball and bringing it back. There is no stopping him.
He’s a strong hunting instinct, always looking for birds and things to chase so this should be kept in mind.
He’s very friendly, sweet and good with other dogs!
Who will give Tom a home? Isn’t he handsome? 😍
Plz share 🙏🏻❤️

Luna is another victim of the hunting industry in Spain.
Not of use? Throw them out.
Luna is 5.5yrs old and is quite shy but coming along well here at GDS.
Luna is good with other dogs, gentle on a lead and is looking for another home.
A proper home this time ❤️
Please share 🙏🏻❤️

Lupa is yet another hunting dog that was abandoned when too old.
Yes, she’s 12yrs old and now looking for her forever home.
Lupa sleeps a lot but when up and about is quite active.
I wouldn’t say she’s a plodder like some 12yr olds, she wants to sniff and run around.
She would definitely have the energy for plenty of adventures yet.
Lupa can get a bit protective over things like her bed. She can just give a gentle grumble.
These things are always hard to figure out in a kennel environment but when in a home I wouldn’t be spoiling her too much too quickly. Perhaps a tendency for some resource guarding.
Lupa is loving, wants to be loved and needs her forever home.
Plz will you share? 🙏🏻❤️

A hunter gave his podenca to a charity because she was no longer useful.
She has diabetes and almost died.
Aren’t the hunters lucky that the protectors are here to just clean up?
Protectora Animales USKAR didn’t feel they could cope with her case long term and asked us for help.
To be honest a dog like this that needs such close monitoring, injections at the right time etc needs to be in a home. How to find a dog like this a home?
Well we have a wonderful home in Scotland for her ❤️
Lauren, a great volunteer of GDS and perfect dog mamma. However in Scotland vets bills for these cases are not cheap and insurance will be difficult.
Can we work together to get Furia to Lauren and with a supply of insulin, a vet visit in hand and general support? 🙏🏻❤️
Lauren absolutely does not expect this but we know it’s a struggle and we really would like to make this work.
If you feel Furia is a worthy cause, we are looking to raise 1000 euros for the transport, blood glucose monitor, supply of meds and a vet visit on arrival.
No obligation to donate. We just want her in a home asap and we can make it happen 🩷💪🏻

Barnaby is 6.5yrs old and was a longest stayer at a perrera in Toledo.
We took him out in hope to find him a home but so far we’ve not been successful.
He’s absolutely adorable, great with other dogs, good on a lead and just calm and fabulous.
Will you share? 🙏🏻❤️
Argh, these poor dogs, potential to spend half of their lives or more in kennels.
Let’s share and find him a home ♥️
