Betreff: 5 Galgos sollten in einem Brunnen sterben.Jetzt soll der Besitzer sie zurückerhalten
Liebe Tierfreunde,
ich bitte Sie um Ihre Mithilfe.
5 Galgos wurden in einen 30 m tiefen Brunnen geworfen.
Der Besitzer wollte sie auf diese Art umbringen.
Nach ihrer Rettung sollen sie nun an diesen Barbaren zurückgegeben werden.
Bitte protestieren Sie gegen dieses Unrecht!

SAMPLE TEXT:
Dear xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I write to draw your attention to the case of 5 galgos rescued by Protectora de Animales Scooby (Registered No. 93458) in collaboration with the municipal fire brigade from a well 30 metres deep in the village of Alaejos (Castilla y Léon) on 6 January 2005.
Late in the evening on 5 January, Scooby was informed of barking coming from a well (30 metres deep) along an isolated road in the village of Alaejos.
A rescue operation was mounted at first light on 6 January by Scooby in conjunction with the municipal fire brigade and 5 galgos were pulled out alive. Each dog had a rope around its neck. This had clearly been a deliberate act to kill the dogs. It is believed from the stench coming out of the well that it is a dumping hole for unwanted galgos and decomposing bodies remain.
The galgos were immediately taken for emergency treatment to the Scooby refuge, where they are presently recovering. It is expected they will all survive. Two are still in a fragile condition. All of them remain under the care of a veterinarian.
Two men have surfaced since the rescue claiming to own the galgos and demanding they be returned to them. One of the men showed up at the well just before the dogs were pulled out and afterwards he officially reported his dogs as stolen. On the day after the rescue, the other man claimed his dogs had escaped from him. The dogs have tattoos, which could lead to the identification of the owners and an arrest for irresponsible abandonment of the dogs. I am also aware there may be evidence, which indicates that at least one of the owners or even both of them could be responsible for throwing the dogs down the well.
I understand that galgos are protected under article 337 of the Penal code (a federal law and overrules any regional/autonomous laws). I therefore urge you to ensure a full investigation is carried out and the perpetrators of this crime are brought to justice. In addition, I strongly encourage you to formally accord responsibility for the dogs to Protectora de Animales Scooby with immediate effect. To return the dogs to the men claiming to be the owners would surely mean further barbaric treatment and possible death of the dogs.
Yours sincerely
