Tamara: on a different translation site a 'sample' dog is a Pointer. And I'm guessing the 'haired' dog is a Podenco 
New word for me this week - hurón - ferret. I was offered a couple of baby ones this week!

I'm probably being thick here but if there is a rule that says "At no time, the hunting of any wild species will be allowed' -what are they going to be hunting?
Also, where or what is El Coto de los Vecinos in Lajares? I'm not familiar with that name...

I think in the article they referred to the hunting within the training camps. I bet though that all those rambos don't stick to rabbits and squirrels only...
