Monte – Our Gentle Giant
Monte is around three years old and he’s a gigantic Mastín with the heart of a big baby. He’s a lovely, calm boy who adores people and has integrated beautifully with the other dogs at the pound.
When Monte gets a chance to go out into the patio, he enjoys it to the fullest – playing, exploring, and interacting with the others. Sadly, that time is very limited – just a short moment each day while his cage is being cleaned. The rest of the day, Monte remains in a small kennel, which is far from what a dog like him needs.
As a large and noble breed, Monte needs space, daily stimulation, and a peaceful home where he can stretch out and truly relax.
💛 Please don’t let him spend much longer at the pound. Monte is a gentle soul with so much love to give – he’s simply waiting for someone to notice him and give him the life he deserves.
This gorgeous dog 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 are £570. This includes all DEFRA paperwork and transport by DEFRA registered carrier ( using the TRACES system) direct to your door, except London, within the M25 motorway, Highlands of Scotland beyond Perth, and all off islands (if we cannot deliver direct, a mutually convenient meeting place will be arranged). We sort out all the arrangements and delivery/ meeting times will be advised in advance by the transporter.
For dogs brought to the UK by SSDUK to go initially into foster care, 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.
