‘La Gran
Familia” is a Spanish movie, and therefore doesn’t mean much to people from
abroad, but the case is that in Scooby
we have a big family now, the mother and her 9 adorable puppies. We picked them
up in Salamanca
and the poor thing has already been through a lot. Her name is Silke and she
had been given for adoption, coming from Badajoz
and adopted in the north of Spain,
in the Basque country. She had left without being neutered which for me is a
problem because it can be the cause of certain problems and that is exactly
what happened. Her adopter decided he could not have her anymore and instead of
giving her back to the organisation where he got her from, he decided to give her to a cousin in
Salamanca, and first she escaped from the cousin, nobody registers her as being
lost and the dog appears two months later with 9 puppies and all of
them are ready for adoption. In this case the world of animal protection should
be held accountable because in this case we, as animal protection workers have
done what we blame the galgueros for doing, the adopter has given the dog away
without changing the name on the chip and in the end we have Silke and her 9
puppies up for adoption.
