Casino Royale!
placed in kennels where he has lived ever since. During that
time he had not been adopted despite his bright and playful
personality because there are literally hundreds, if not
thousands, of Podencos looking for homes at any given time in
Andalucia. Humphrey’s luck finally arrived when he was
chosen by a wonderful lady in Sweden who had previously
adopted another CAS dog last year. A flight partner
volunteered to take Humphrey with her to Stockholm where
he joined his new owner and CAS brother in his new forever
home.

Featured Dog of the Month: Lana
Lana is a 10 year old Spanish Braca/Pointer type female who is
a little unsteady on her legs but is otherwise healthy and a
good natured dog. She was rescued by a Good Samaritan
family more than six months ago who were only here for a
limited stay and have now
returned to their home
Lana
country. The rescue family
describes Lana as really
lovely and easy to handle
dog that is well educated,
obedient and house
trained. She gets along
great with children and
other dogs. The vet thinks
she has arthritis in her
front elbows, which limits
her mobility to short walks,
but it seems to manifest
itself mostly as stiffness in
her joints. Lana is fully
vaccinated and chipped but, unfortunately, her original owner
has died and his family does not want her. CAS hopes to find a
place for Lana to live out her remaining years in comfort with
caring people. She is currently in kennels.

the needy dogs and cats in our area. Put on your thinking caps

Nina was adopted at the beginning of
the year by a kind English gentleman
and was living a wonderful life near
the beach after spending more than
two years in kennels. Unfortunately,
the gent was forced to return to
England for medical reasons and
could not take Nina with him. Nina is
again being housed in kennels. Nina is
a lovely small Podenco female with a
Nina
sweet personality. She tends to
become very attached to her family so
CAS believes it would be best to find her a home with other
dogs where she can settle in among friends.
Happy Tales
Humphrey is a prime example of
why groups such as CAS and other
animal charities are essential for
helping needy animals in our area.
