Galgo Podenco Support
Galgo Podenco Support (GPS), a
volunteer non-profit entity, was established to support the Spanish licensed
charity groups that rescue, rehabilitate and rehome abandoned and abused galgos
and podencos. Inspired by the tireless efforts of those on the front lines, GPS offers
assistance in the way of financial support, practical help, and facilitation of
adoptions to the US.
Are there obstacles to running
an organization that focuses on the needs of dogs in a foreign country?
Absolutely. In addition to obvious challenges such as language and distance
barriers, one often hears "what about the dogs here in the US? There is
plenty of need here". GPS believes that there are no borders defining dogs
in need. What the Spanish hounds endure is a global condition that affects all
of us, one way or another. The greatness of a nation can
be judged by the way its animals are treated. — Mahatma Gandhi
GPS would like to express our
great appreciation to the US greyhound groups who have opened their hearts and
homes to the Spanish hounds. We so appreciate their professionalism, support
and passion for the plight of the galgos and podencos. For information about
