Hope for Podencos
Together we are stronger.
Hope For Podencos is a registered charity, but we are more than that. We are a community built by those working towards the same goal. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, rehome, spread awareness and provide support for Podencos of all shapes and sizes. We do this through our extensive network and dedicated team.
No longer will they be ‘The Great Forgotten’ as we are their voice.

A home with 1 or more doggy siblings.
He can still get a little overexcited so needs encouragement to settle when in new exciting situations.
He gets VERY excited when out on walks so needs support with lead training as hes is a string boy.
Robbie needs to be in his new forever home by 04/05/26.

“Living with Robbie has taught us many things; mainly that personal space is a fictional concept, if he isn’t leaning on us he is lying on us, he is big, he is loving and believes he is an Italian Greyhound. Robbie means cuddles, goofiness and a best friend, he brings laughter, loyalty and a whole lot of love. We have watched him trust again, seeing his personality unfold, he has a zest for life, Robbie isn’t too big or too much he is simply waiting for someone to see the incredible companion he can be.”
Same Dogs, Same Rights.

Meet Our Founders.
Irene and Steve Allan have over 30 years experience with dogs, Irene in the showing arena and both of them as groomers. They moved from Scotland to Spain in 2009 and donated their time grooming rescue dogs in the shelters in the hope this would make them more adoptable, this is how they discovered the The Plight of the Podenco. They set up the ‘Hope For Podencos’ foundation in 2014, focusing on this particular breed that so needed their support.
Podencos come in all shapes and sizes.
We understand not everyone is in a position to adopt a Podenco, but there are still so many ways you can help.
