INDIGO – WHAT A BEAUTI
Indigo came into the care of the Los Barrios pound in May 2022 and was about 3-4 weeks old with her siblings.
She is very lucky to be in a loving foster home with lots of other dogs. The foster family tells us, that she is a very loving young girl and if you give her a belly rub, she melts like butter. Indigo is still just a big baby and is energetic, but she is housetrained and she comes when called (if she isn’t too distracted). She loves spending time in the garden playing with the other dogs and even jumping in the pool, and inside the house she loves sleeping on the sofa. She is okay on the lead, but she is a strong girl and could use a bit more lead training. When the dogs are left alone they are in the garden with no problem.
As she is a big (clumsy) dog, she would be best in a home without small children as she could easily knock them over. She would do well with another big friendly dog.
She needs a home with space and a fenced garden. All in all she is a good girl.
Indigo is available for adoption in the UK. Homecheck and adoption fee apply. Adoption fee includes neutering, passport, microchip, all vaccinations, blood tests to screen for diseases, worm and flea treatment.
Adoption cost in Spain (if no transport required) 155€ for males and €165 for females.
Adoption costs to the UK £520, this includes all DEFRA paperwork and transport by DEFRA registered carrier(using the TRACES system) by road direct to your door. We sort all the arrangements for you. For dogs brought to the UK by SSDUK to go on foster, adopters will still be required to pay the full adoption fee of £520 to cover the above expenses.
In some cases, for example a failed adoption of a dog already in the UK, the fee may be reduced to £320 where the initial transport costs from Spain have already been met. This is to cover transport within the UK, kennel fees and any checks required.
