Alfa canis
Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years
Due to her breed, Alfa is undoubtedly a discarded hunting dog—was she abandoned? Did she escape from some kennel or stable where they usually keep them? She’s just one more of the roughly 30 greyhounds we rescue each year. To rescue her from the field where she was living, we had to establish a regular feeding routine; once she started coming to the area on her own, we set up a remote-controlled trap cage. After several hours of waiting, she finally entered it. But getting her out proved extremely difficult—she kept jumping around wildly. Thanks to some young cyclists who helped the three people from Alba, we managed to capture her, though not without several close calls when she tried to bite them. For several weeks, she stayed confined to her carrier, eating only when no one was watching. Gradually, she’s become more relaxed and is now able to go for walks on a leash and even let people touch her. With varying amounts of time, we always manage to help these dogs trust humans again. She’s been badly mistreated, but she’s in good health and has already gained some weight. She’s already spayed. Her leishmaniasis test came back negative. Her 4-Idexx test (for ehrlichia, filaria, anaplasma, and borrelia) was also negative. Show more of her story Show less

Por su raza, Alfa es sin duda un desecho de cazador, abandonada?, escapada de algún zulo/establo donde los suelen tener?. Uno más de los aproximadamente de 30 galgos que recogemos cada año. Para rescatarla en el campo donde estaba fue necesario hacer rutina de comida y cuando ya acudía a la zona, se puso jaula trampa con mando a distancia y tras varias horas de espera, entró. Pero fue muy difícil sacarla, ya que saltaba enloquecida, gracias a unos jóvenes ciclistas que ayudaron a las tres personas de Alba, lo consiguieron, no sin llevarse varios intentos de comérselos. Ha estado varias semanas sin salir del transportín, comiendo cuando no la miraba nadie. Poco a poco se ha relajado y ya es capaz de pasear con correa y dejarse tocar. Con más o menos tiempo, siempre conseguimos que confíen en el ser humano, ha sido muy maltratada, pero está bien de salud y ya ha cogido algo de peso. Ya está castrada. Analítica de leishmania negativa. Test 4 Idexx (ehrlichia, filaria, anaplasma y borrelia) negativo. Mostrar más de su historia Mostrar menos
