Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 9 years

‘OLD DOG OF THE WEEK’ FEATURES NEW PHOTOS AND A FRESH WRITE-UP FOR AN OVERLOOKED OLDIE THAT HAS BEEN ON OUR WEBSITE FOR A WHILE BUT IS STILL WAITING FOR A NEW HOME. Please help Rafi by sharing this page! Happy-go-lucky Rafi is a 9-year-old Galgo lady (that's an exotic Spanish breed of sighthound) currently in foster care in Rhondda, South Wales through Project Galgo . She's 61cm in height, weighs 22kg and is an absolute sweetheart! Rafi can live with sensible older children but she wants to be the only pet at home. She really loves her humans and can take any amount of fuss. She's a comical, sometimes cheeky girl who will keep you amused as well as feeling loved. Rafi was rescued from a pound in Spain where she'd been very stressed. She now takes life in her easy lope of a stride and has settled in to family life beautifully! She walks nicely on the lead. She used to bark at most other dogs but has calmed right down with feeling secure in foster care. Her old habit might reassert itself at first, on adoption, but should once again be forgotten once she feel at home. Rafi is a delightful dog to have around. She loves sofa cuddles and just relaxing in her comfy bed. She can be left, once she's got used to things, for up to 4 hours quite happily. She likes her kong toy especially but will make do with treats too. Her only real dislike is the hoover! Rafi is spayed, vaccinated and been vet checked. She wants a peaceful home with a garden and a kind person or people to make her feel loved. If you want to enqire about this special lady, please contact Project Galgo or as follows: Email: Please say you saw Rafi featured as Old Dog of the Week on the Oldies Club website. This replaces Rafi's original page dated 15 February 2026.
