May I introduce myself? I am Portuguese and I live in the centre of Portugal, near Tomar. I have recently started working with a shelter at Golega (the "horse capital" of Portugal) and in my last visit a little podengo touched my heart: he so much wanted to come close to the people visiting his box, but he didn't dare to... The most he could do was to sniff the tip of my fingers briefly, not close enough for giving him a scratch behind his ears.
That made me think of this forum, that I had visited in the past: is there any chance to try and get these little dogs adopted through here? There are quite a few at the shelter, as they are very common and often discarded by hunters (or getting lost themselves). Of course, none of them have any papers certifying the pureness of their blood, but I could easily take pictures or videos, if the site allows for it. Maybe we could find good homes for them this way?
Thank you for your attention and let me know if you are interested.
