Although ancient breeds, they are two of the most misunderstood and much maligned breeds in the world. The podenco is comprised of a group of sighthounds commonly used for hunting rabbits. Galgos and podencos are two distinctive Spanish sighthounds that are bred to hunt in packs for a brief recreational season. They have been in recovery since their rescue as they were very thin. The podenco is a small to large-sized hound dog breed from the Mediterranean region, especially in Spain (where podenco means 'hound' in Spanish), with a smooth, wired, or long-hair coat. These three sizes are generally not cross-bred and each has their own purpose. They are multi-sensory hounds that hunt using both their sight and scent and come in three distinct sizes: The smallest Pequeno, the medium sized Médio and the large Grande. TWO small podengos - brothers rescued from an absolutely miserable situation where they were kept in a wooden box and fed only about 3 times a week! They were stolen from the box by my friend one night!! TANGO and BOLERO are their names and they are small in build and height. The Portuguese Podengo Pequeno is an ancient, no-nonsense hunting hound from Portugal.
