At the start of a New Year (2009) we find Dog-Girl continuing to keep dogs in an unhealthy and inhumane manner. There are, at the last count, seven dogs in this place, one rabbit, numerous chickens and a few cockerels. Although the dogs now have water 'on tap', they are visited at irregular intervals, sometimes once a week, sometimes - especially when there is a fiesta - once a fortnight. Food is provided on these occasions, usually but not always, and they have to make this last, never knowing when the next meal may be brought. They continue to howl and whimper on a daily basis, often fighting amongst themselves and often displaying symptoms of boredom and distress.
Dog-Girl's accomplice, a man with no affection or regard for these animals, has been seen using chicks as a means of training his own dog to 'fetch and kill'. Watching him throw these chicks around like a ball, for his dog to chase, shake to death and bring back to him, is distressing in the extreme. Complaints to the Guardia achieve nothing as this kind of 'sport' is not considered to be illegal.
The result of the numerous 'denuncias' that have been posted against this woman remain unknown......the wheels of justice turn VERY slowly in Spain and waiting becomes a career among those hoping for an outcome to any enquiry!!
Further complaints (denuncias) are needed to keep this matter alive and kicking. The addresses already given remain the best option. The more people who know about this situation, the better our chance of changing the culture of animal abuse that is so rife in Spain. We need more exposure!!
Help us to highlight this site by posting it to everyone you know.
Our resolve to help these animals remains strong and we welcome any support and thank you for it.
