When I
stopped working 1,5 year ago I decided to look for a small podenco andaluz to
keep me company when I had to go out. Together is more fun than alone. I have
plenty of dogs but they would not enjoy coming with me because they are timid
dogs or they get car sick. A small dog is easy and can sit next to me in the
car with a proper car harness.
My eye fell
on small Olivia now Olijfje, a very friendly and open dog and after looking at
some of her pictures I decided to adopt her. She is a small podenco andaluz and
weighs about 7 kg. she is really fabulous. She really loves to come with me in
the car puts her nose in the air and put on a face and looks so very
satified with herself that she makes me laugh. Everybody looks at her and she
is very friendly to everybody. Also to small children she is very friendly and
very careful.
When Fermin
comes we always go to the garden centre and Olijfje sits on her blanket in the
trolly. Even when she is surrounded by plants she does not care. Everybody
loves her and wants to touch her and Olijfje enjoys all the attention. Everyone
is amazed by her good manners and of course mum is proud. When we go to the
market she always gets treats. She really is my little girlfriend.
In the
meantime Olijfje has a friend Mickey, he also is a little podenco andaluz who
was kicked on the road by people. He really is a sweet little dog very
submissive and quite. Mickey and Olijfje are very good friends, they go in the
garden together and sleep together. Mickey also loves to lie in your arms as a
baby for hours. He really is a sweetheart.
I really do
not understand why podencos are not more popular and I can advice everyone to
adopt such a little mouse. I also have here 2 podenco andaluz medium size and I
can only say that they are just as quite and sweet as galgos. In fact to be
honest the podencos here are more tolerant to other dogs than some of my galgos
who can by crankey at the time and snabby. They podencos are only
lovingly and sweet and very lazy. So sad that they are not more popular. By the
way do you know that podencos are less exaptable to leishmania than other dogs?
Here some
pictures of Olijfje and Mickey and look for you self, aren't they adorable?
