ABUELO, A SERIOUS OLD CHAP LOOKING FOR A QUIET RETREAT
Abuelo was handed in because he had snapped at somebody, even though for 9 years he had lived happily in a home without snapping at anyone. We soon realised that poor Abuelo had a terrible infection in his testicles and must have been in excruciating pain. How his owners could not see how swollen and sore he was, we don’t understand. Maybe they just didn’t care. Or maybe they lied and didn’t want to have to pay for his treatment. He has never shown any aggression to anyone at the pound. Anyway, we can tell he now feels much better in himself and is enjoying life again and loves to play with the hose.
He is an independent boy who would like a home where he is an only dog or with dogs who are also older and don’t pester him. A child free home may be better too as this boy just wants to have a little play, go for walks, have some cuddles and sleep. Nothing too stressful.
Abuelo is available for adoption in Germany, UK, Sweden, Finland, Holland, Spain and many other countries. 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 £350, 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.
