DESCRIPTION:

Galgos are an ancient breed of sighthound used in competitions and hunting hares (wild rabbits). Unlike greyhounds, galgos are built for distance running rather than speed. They're relatively quiet dogs that do well with other dogs. In Spain, hunters see them as disposable tools. Their owners frequently discard or kill the dogs after the hunting season ends on February first rather than care for and feed them, especially if they are over three years old or injured.

Galgos are wonderful family dogs and companions that get along well with other animals and dogs. Día del Galgo is an international awareness and fundraising campaign promoted by Galgos del Sol. If you'd like to help, you can opt to sponsor a dog, make a donation, apply to adopt one, or assist in outreach via the organization's website.
