It's so upsetting that I'm beside myself. When I calm down, I think I'll see if there's legit rescue groups for these dogs specifically.

At least little Matilda has a happy home now

One of the reasons I never worked with children, could not bear to see them harmed in any way.

Torture all the galogas(sp) and liberate those poor hounds. And tie the galogas up and let them be chew toys. I just want those fuckers in pain than dead. "Culture" is no justification for such abuse. Some cultures need to die.
I looked it up and could not get past the second paragraph. I hate these monsters with the fire of a million galaxies, and I curse their lives and culture. To Extinction. ..oh yeah fuck you all galogas every on of you pieces of shit.,may your dogs devour your heart still beating ripped out of your chest.

The correct term for these people is *Galgueros*.

Remember, the Spanish also made a national sport of watching bulls being tortured in arenas. Blood sport seems a specialty.

I'm sorry, but what is the deal with Spain and cruelty toward animals. The bullfighting and these poor discarded dogs. What is it in their culture that make them devalue animals so much? I think there needs to be some greater awareness about this in that country because I am sure that not everyone approves of such treatment.
