AVAILABLE DOGS

Old man Tango is a regal & noble pod who was no longer of use to his hunter. Tango gets along well with other dogs & currently lives with a cat in his foster home. He weighs about 65 lbs & will need a patient & understanding family to allow him time to blossom. He's currently being fostered & is available for adoption within driving distance of PA.  

Sweet little old guy Frankie is about 25 lbs & just wants to be someone's velcro dog. He would make a great lap dog for TV watching & would love to sleep in bed with his person. While Frankie is absolutely wonderful with other dogs & even tested cat safe while in Spain, he does NOT want to live with men in the house. He prefers women & loves to ride in the car & act as navigator. He's currently being fostered in VA & is available for adoption within driving distance! Frankie would make a perfect only dog! 

RESERVED! Adoption Pending!

Ariia is quite a young podenca but when she was first rescued she was totally shut down. Over time she's slowly started to emerge from her shell but she still has some work to do to overcome her fears. Aria is currently being fostered at the Sanctuary located in VA where she continues to make steady progress.

We do have some special needs that Aria will need with her new family. Anyone who would like to be considered as her new family needs to understand that she needs a lot of time and patience but you'll be handsomely rewarded for your efforts! We will require Aria to have a GPS tracking collar along with at least a 5 ft fenced yard. She also needs at least 1-2 other dog companions in the home with her and a family who's familiar with the unique needs of podencos. While she hasn't been tested with cats, we feel that she'll probably be good with them inside. If you think that you might fit that criteria, please fill out an application!

This dynamic duo is known as Tom & Jerry. They were rescued in Spain and are both 10 years old. We're not totally sure if they're brothers but they were taken from the same hunter and were also rescued with Tango & Frankie, who are also available for adoption! They're also totally bonded to each other and will need to be placed together. 

These boys were actually adopted in Spain together & lived in a home for several months. Thru no fault of their own, they were returned to the rescue and in working with Project Berta, one of our partner groups in Spain, we decided that it would be in their best interest to bring them to the US to find a new family where they . 

These boys love to go for walks and hikes and would be great walking companions for an active family. We feel that they're not cat safe, although they've not been tested with any yet. We also think they would do best with kids over the age of 10. These special boys are being fostered in MD. 

Our sweet old guy Fernando could tell a lot of stories but unfortunately a lot of them would be sad ones, based on the scars on his body. He was more than likely dropped at the shelter by a hunter & was probably used to hunt wild boar. This dashing gentleman wants nothing more than to be loved on for the rest of his life. The amazing Estela from Proyecto Berta saw him at a perrera while picking up two other Sanctuary seniors & ended up going back to get him. He looked so sad that she just couldn't leave him there. He quickly learned how to enjoy all the comforts of family life with his foster family like dog beds & treats. He hasn't been tested with cats but we doubt that he'll be cat friendly. The best news for this dashing dude is that he's now in the US & currently being fostered in MD.

This grand old dame is Careta & she's 9 years old. Careta is one of the very lucky ones. She's another one who was picked up by another amazing rescue in Spain that we work with. Angelica with Casa de Postas went to pick up a senior for us, who will come over early next year, & while she was there she happened to spot Careta & just couldn't leave her there. My friends in Spain know me all too well! It was another great "two-fer" & we're happy that we're able to help this old girl too. Careta has been tested with cats & is VERY cat friendly. And Careta will be able to celebrate the holidays this year as a new resident of the US since she just arrived! She's also one of the rare dogs who would probably do better by herself or with just one other dog in the family.
