Adopter Vixen
Podenco · Kvinde
Vi så Vixens situation første gang på Facebook – en redning delte billeder af hende, der levede på et benzinpumpes forhøj og undgik regelmæssigt trafikken. De havde ikke plads, så de bad om hjælp fra alle, der kunne tage hende. Vi kontaktede en af vores egne samarbejdspartnerkældre i området, som var glade for at hjælpe med at fange hende og bringe hende i sikkerhed. Det er så farligt for podencos at krydse veje regelmæssigt for at få mad og bolig. Hun viste sig meget svær at fange, da hun ikke ville gå ind i fælden trods mange forsøg. Vores kontakt talte med lokale arbejdere, der sagde, at mange redninger havde prøvet at fange hende og mislykkedes – hun havde været der i flere måneder og undgået alle slags fangst – udmærket smug, listig og usynlig, som en ræv, derfor hendes navn! Vi kom alle til at erkende, at hun måske ville blive ramt, før vi kunne redde hende, da vi fik et besked, som fortalte, at en pige i området havde fanget en podenco. Vi ventede med spænding for at se, om det var hende, og blev glade for at finde ud af, at det var. Pigen havde givet hende mad hver dag og havde opnået hendes tillid nok. Når hun ankom til dyrehavecenteret og overkom sin første nervøsitet, var hun snart glad for at modtage kærlighed fra mennesker. Hun er stadig lidt skraddersygt med fremmede, men når hun lærer dig at kende, smelter det bort. Hun er en sød, nysgerrig lille pige, der er god med andre hunde og har en dejlig karakter. Hun vil nyde anden hundekompagni, men kan også bo som en alene hund, hvis man anerkender, at det måske tager lidt længere tid for hende at ophøre med at være nervøs uden en anden hund, der leder vejen. Hun er ikke testet for katte, men løber frit blandt piger! Vi kan arrangere en kattest, hvis det er nødvendigt. Vixen skal steriliseres, vaccineres og er testet og fri for alle Middelhavssygdomme undtagen Babesia – som allerede nævnt har hun testet positiv og modtager behandling for dette, så vi kan teste igen for at få det klare. Hun har pas og er nu til adoption. Hvis du foretrækker at give en engangsdonation, klik venligst nedenfor.

We first saw Vixen’s plight on Facebook - a rescue were sharing photos of her living on a petrol station forecourt and regularly dodging traffic. They had no space so were asking for help from anyone that could take her on. We reached out to one of our own partner kennels in the area who were happy to help trap her and get her to safety. Its so dangerous for podencos to be crossing roads regularly to get food and shelter. She proved incredibly difficult to catch as she wouldn’t go into the trap despite many attempts. Our contact spoke to local workers who said many rescues had tried to catch her and failed - she had been there for many months evading all different types of capture - incredibly wily, cunning and elusive, like a fox hence her name! We were all coming to the realisation that she may end up getting hit before we could save her, when we got a message saying that a girl in the local area had caught a female podenco. We waited with baited breath to see if it was her and were delighted to find out that it was. The girl had been feeding her every day, and had managed to earn her trust enough. Once she arrived at the shelter, and got over her initial nerves she soon warmed up and was happy to receive affection from people. She is still a little shy at first with strangers but once she gets to know you this melts away. She is a sweet, curious little girl who is great with other dogs and has a lovely temperament. She would enjoy other doggy company but could be homed as an only dog with the recognition that she might take a little longer to fully relax without another dog to lead the way. She hasn’t been cat tested, but free roams in amongst pigs! We can arrange a cat tested if needed. Vixen will be neutered, vaccinated and is tested and clear for all Mediterranean diseases excluding Babesia - as already stated she has tested positive and is receiving treatment for this, so we can retest for the all clear. She is passported and available for adoption now. If you would prefer to make a one off donation, please click below
