Helena, young shepherd found a home

Helena is a young German shepherd mix. She is well-behaved (not counting leaving her alone in the kitchen to investigate) and gets along fine with people and other dogs of all sizes. She just wants to play and learn. She is house trained, she'll sleep in a corner and make herself invisible to she is a "good dog" - she'll lie next to you for hours in the study - to become a puppy again outside.

Helena is slowly getting used to people, she is very much attached to her foster mother but she does not yet know how to show it. She has probably had little socialisation so travelling in a car and things new are still a bit frightening.
She so desperately wants to be a good dog, she just never learned how to do that.
Helena wants to play, play, play - only the other dogs don't always appreciate that. But she gets on well with males and females, big and small. She is afraid of very overbearing dogs and will avoid any confrontation.

She is a bit rough trying to play with medium-sized 10kg dogs, smaller dogs she ignores,
She will benefit from another dog that knows how things work. She'll often find comfort tucking in behind Luna, the older shepherd mix I have.

Helena is now adopted in Asturias (Lugones) - 24/08/2010

Bola, a young terrier mix - found a home

Bola has found a home in Germany!

Little Bola is a very young dog, estimated about 10 months old. She looks like a mix between a terrier and a German shepherd, but she is only about 45 cm high and aprox. 15 kg.

We found her 28/11/09 tied up next to the perrera - as usual. She was sooo afraid! After a week she was already a lot better. She had to stay in the kennels as we had no space in our foster homes, but after her sterilisation she'll go to Pedro's house.

Bola is a very friendly dog, she gets on well with people and with other dogs. She is a calm dog and walks well on the lead. If you are talking to somebody, she'll just lie down next to you and wait until something is happening again.

Tommie, puppy border collie mix - found a home

Tommie has found a home in Zaragoza! His new family drove the 500km to ASturias to pick him up!
Tommie three weeks apart - 14/11 and 5/12. He was left near the little perrera in Infiesto, we found out he is half border collie. We think he was born in August 2009. He looks adorable and is a very active and open puppy. As a border collie mix he will need a good education. He is not in the perrera now but in a foster home in the mountains with our volunteer Mark with two other dogs. At the age of three months he weighed 5 kg and was about 25 cm high. He gets along with all other dogs, is struggling with being house-trained and defn¡initely has his own ideas - although at the same time he is very loving. He is a dog for people that can dedicate time to him and work with him so he can make use of his intelligence and need to be doing things.

Kas, young sabueso - found a home

Kas is adopted in Germany! (March 2010)
Kas_141109 (2)
Kas was passed on from one hunter (who treated him badly) to another (who felt sorry for him). But Kas is a pacifist - he is not a hunter. So Kas had to go...
He is a young and very friendly Sabueso/grifon. They are the big-eared dogs that make ideal pets: he is not dominant, likes people and other dogs, loves to come for a walk, he is not inclined to run off at all. Sabuesos are very calm dogs.
Kas was born in 2007, he weighs 22 kg and is about 50 cm high. A bit rough on the edges still but considering the life he's had, he is incredibly stable and well-tempered. Suitable for any kind of family!

Amaia, a young German shepherd ADOPTED




Amaia is less than a year old and she was found near the perrera - nobody asked for her. Maybe she was abandoned because her back legs are not 100% perfect, although the running here does her good. She is a very intelligent and loving animal. She is a born retriever and never leaves your side. She is agile, jumps up and down like a lunatic when she is enthousiastic and sociable with all the (9) other dogs.
Adopted in Germany 5/12/09

Gris, a small young German shepherd - ADOPTED

Gris had been adopted in January 2009 - he was just a puppy really and was returned (financial crisis?) just before August (summer holidays?). He is a handsome and very nice, active dog. He still needs to learn a lot and he needs to gain some weight. He is absolutely nice, and not a dominant dog at all.
More info in German - adopted in Germany November 2009. His name is now Bino.

Solchi - Young Pointer mix - found a home

Solchi found a home in Germany with another pointer!




Solchi is 1.5 years old and Sella's brother. He was adopted a year ago but due to the owner's personal sitation he is back at Pedro's house now. Solchi is a very active, elegant pointer mix. He is thinner than a pointer, we think there is some setter in him as well. Aisha, now adopted at the donkey paradise, is most probably his mother. He is very sociable with other dogs, both male and female and loves people. As an active dog he will need a place where he can run a lot - also because he is still so very young.

Milou, fox terrier - old but so what - ADOPTED

Little Milou was found hiding under a truck. The metal ring on his collar was broken and he had obviously been on the end of a chain. He is a bit small and harmless to be chained up.... Milou gets on well with all the other dogs, cats and people. He loves lying in the car and prefers a quiet life. If the other 8 dogs are too noisy, he goes and hides in a corner, preferably in the van.

The vet estimates his age around 8 years - there's a lot of life in him yet. He jumps up and over the walls without any effort. He has a slight heart murmur but no problems with that.

Milou has found a home in Germany in a family with two other older dogs!

Lisa, an adorable little fox terrier ADOPTED

Lisa was adopted in Germany 1/8/2009. She has a new 'brother' - another foxterrier!

Cloë, German Shepherd ADOPTED











Update: Clöe is adopted in Spain.
Cloë is probably just over one year old. As many other dogs, she was tied up at the perrera on 24 Nov 2008 by people unknown, so we don't know anything about her past. She is slightly lower (50-55 cm) than other German shepherds, she is not too fat at all, her hair is not long, rather short and she weights 23 kg. She is sterilised (15 Dec 2008).
She is used to people but is a little skittish and afraid of brooms - she must have been beaten before. On the other hand she is very investigative and incredibly active. She is in a fosterhome now and the whippet only just managed to wear her out running. She gets on well with the other dogs, she can be slightly dominant towards females but if there is sufficient space to run around there are no problems at all.
She has not been educated but she does come when she is called and joins the walks with the other dogs from day one without taking off on her own. She likes playing with a ball but what she enjoys most at the moment is just running around and inviting other dogs to do the same. She has only been with us for three days so there will be more to tell about her.

Chico, a boxer mix - ADOPTED April 2009

Update: Chico is adopted in Spain (Aviles)
Chico is a young dog with a very expressive face - just like his character. He wants to participate, is enthousiastic, can be a good leader if there are several dogs. He absolutely adores people who will have to guide him to channel all his energy as he is very intelligent and does not easily give up.

He loves to play and is good with children.

He is no good with cats, but on the other hand he is very reliable around horses and donkeys.

He knows how to walk on the lead, enjoys travelling by car and knows several basic commands.

Chico is about 50-55 cm, what we call medium-sized, much smaller than a German Shepherd. He is castrated, chipped, vaccinated and ready to find a a new home with someone to love him.

Aisha - setter mix ADOPTED March 2009

Aisha is a dog who gets on extremely well with all the other dogs and with people. She is not afraid, she is independent but also loves attention. She has even learnt to get on with the cats! She is not a barker, only when she gets excited just before the daily walk in her fosterhome.

She is aprox 3 years old, shoulderheight about 50 cm. Medium sized. The ideal companion for older or younger people. She is obedient, will not leave your side which is admirable for a hunting dog.

Aika - the lovely terrier girl found a home
















Aika is a small foxterrier, very young and probably pure as she has a cut tail. She was found somewhere in the woods, where she was found and taken home - but the problem was that lovely Aika also loved chicken, as a real terrier and she was dumped at the small perrera in Infiesto.

Name: Aika
Breed: Foxterrier (cut tail)
Sex: F (sterilised 14/8/08)
Age: 1-2 years
Size: aprox 35 cm
Weight: 6 kg
Entry: 12/8/2008

Character: loving and dependent on people, open to new people - in that respect not terrier-like. She does like to hunt birds (chickens ;) - cats are incredibly interesting (there are about 10 in her foster home) but they are al most as big as she is. She is not used to them yet though. She is house-trained and obedient but a very very active little dog.

Aika was adopted in Germany (September 2008)
