Melocoton so full of love…
Melocoton arrived at the pound on Christmas day, what an awful present to get. A small cage in a chaotic noisy pound… The first couple of days he seemed a bit scared or overwhelmed, which is understandable!
He is getting better and better every day and now he shows how much he loves being with people and he is good with other dog too. He shares a cage with Crema and during the day he goes out on the patio with lots of other dogs, males, females, old, young, small and big . without any problem. He actually prefers to stay as close as possible to the people in hope of getting a little attention and a cuddle. He seems to be a very gentle and calm young boy just waiting for his chance in life…
Melocoton 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 £570, 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 £570 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.
