​Hi my name is Jayne, heres a bit about my background in animal rescue.
After fostering several griffons in England and hearing about the terrible abuse that Spanish Griffon Dogs go through, I decided to make the move to Galicia, northern Spain. ​
​
Casa de griffon was set up 5 years ago to save as many dogs as possible from the horrendous abuse that they suffer here.
​​
Since arriving Casa de Griffon has taken care of over 500 dogs in all shapes and sizes
The Galicians are a large hunting province and their dogs of choice tend to be Griffons, Beagles and Podencos.
​
The pounds are overflowing with several hundred dogs who are locked in concrete cages 24/7 unless they are released to adopters and rescuers.
From pregnant old girls to ex hunting dogs who have been beaten and tied to short chains, this is the continual abuse these beautiful dogs have to endure.
​
Just over two years ago, a property was found in northern Galicia and we have been busy building indoor enclosures and secure outdoor exercise areas where the dogs are assessed and rehabilitated so they can be adopted to the forever homes.
