Spain has animal welfare legislation in place that should protect all animals, including hunting dogs such as galgos and podencos.

AGAIN, SHOCKING IMAGES FROM A GALGUERO GROUP
Today we came across more photos showing the inhumane conditions in which many galgos in Spain have to live.
In the images, you can see dogs living in filth and mess, with no hygiene, and even having to drink dirty water. #egpac

Thank you to Greyhounds in Nood Belgium
They are supporting us with crucial data on the situation of hunting dogs in Spain.
Their collaboration shows we stand together as one strong voice for galgos, podencos, and all hunting dogs who deserve protection.

Disturbing images from Spain.
Galgueros posing with emaciated galgos and dead ostriches hunted down by dogs, then hung from trees as “trophies.”
This is not tradition.

🇪🇺 Big news: the EU agreed on historic rules to protect dogs & cats.
But the press release makes no mention of Spanish hunting dogs (galgo's, podenco's, rehala's).
A step forward, but the fight isn’t over. 🐾

@Nigel49256731 In Spain, Galgos, Podencos, and other working hunting dogs (perros de caza) are still largely excluded from full protection under the new Animal Welfare Law (Ley de Bienestar Animal, 2023).

@Nigel49256731 What do you mean by this? Could you explain how this affects working dogs?

He ran for his life, not for sport.
This Galgo’s neck wound comes from a Rehala packs of hunting dogs forced to chase big game, many ending up injured or discarded.
Europe keeps looking away. We won’t.

Share!
Each year 100.000–150.000 Galgo's/Podenco's & hunting dogs are abandoned in Spain.
Shelters save over 100.000, but remain overwhelmed, and receive zero support.
Saving one dog costs €400–€1.200.
These aren’t numbers. They’re victims.

Europe can no longer look away.
Galgos and Podencos suffer. Tradition is no excuse.
If EU institutions stay silent, we escalate.
Europe looks away, we don’t!

This is not an isolated incident.
This is the daily reality for galgos in Spain.
A young galgo, used, dumped, dead.
Europe watches. We do not.

@EU_Commission @Europarl_EN
Your silence costs lives.
We demand immediate EU legislation to protect hunting dogs.
No excuses. No delays

Please share our post.

🇪🇺 Europe regulates many things… but has no unified law protecting all companion animals.
27 countries, 27 rules, galgos & podencos slip through the cracks.
This must change.
EGPAC is pushing for it in the heart of Europe.

🐾 Did you know…
…that galgos and podencos are among the most abandoned and mistreated dogs in Spain, despite being gentle, intelligent and incredibly loyal?
💛 Help raise their voice.
