The Bremen Galgo March is an annual protest event that draws attention to the suffering of Spanish hunting dogs, especially Galgos and Podencos. These dogs are frequently used for hunting in Spain and are often mistreated, abandoned or killed after the season. The march in Bremen joins a large number of similar events in Germany and Europe that protest against these practices.

Goals of the Bremen Galgo March:
Create awareness: The march is intended to inform the public about the abuses in the keeping and treatment of hunting dogs in Spain.
Showing solidarity: Participants demonstrate their support for the affected dogs and set an example against their exploitation.
Promote networking: The event provides a platform for animal welfare organizations, adopters and interested parties to exchange ideas and develop solutions together.
Participation and further information:
The Bremen Galgomarsch is open to all dog breeds, although participating dogs should be socially compatible and should be walked safely in large groups and in an urban environment. For up-to-date information, discussions and organizational details, we recommend joining the official Facebook group of the Bremen Galgomarsch.
Review of past events:
The first Bremen Galgo March was described as extremely emotional and successful. The organizers thanked all participants and the supporting associations for their solidarity and commitment.
Such events raise awareness of the suffering of hunting dogs and make an important contribution to animal welfare.
