Hope For Podencos is a charity dedicated to rescuing and rehoming Podencos, often known as Spain’s “Invisible Dogs” due to the abuse and neglect many endure as hunting dogs. Founded after Irene and Steve Allan moved to Spain in 2009 and became aware of the breed’s widespread mistreatment, the organisation focuses on giving these ancient, misunderstood dogs a second chance. Podencos are one of the oldest dog breeds in the world, yet are frequently abandoned and overlooked for adoption. Hope For Podencos works to raise awareness of their plight while helping them find safe, loving homes beyond the conditions they were bred to endure.
