AQUA – A YOUNG GIRL WHO DESERVES A SECOND CHANCE ❤️

Aqua arrived at the pound in August 2026, when she was approximately one year old. She is a gorgeous crossbreed who was found, presumably abandoned, on the streets and brought to the pound.

When Aqua arrived, she was in a very poor condition. She was covered in ticks and fleas and was extremely skinny. Despite whatever she may have been through before arriving at the pound, she is settling in well and is showing us what a sweet, young dog she is.

Aqua enjoys her daily time outside the cage, where she gets to spend time with other dogs. She is comfortable around both male and female dogs and seems to enjoy their company. She is still such a young girl, with a playful nature and so much life ahead of her.

But like all the dogs at the pound, Aqua spends more than 23 and a half hours every day in a cage. She deserves so much more than growing up this way. She deserves a responsible forever home where she will be cared for, loved and given the time and attention she needs to thrive.

Aqua has already had a difficult start to life. Now she needs someone who will give her the safe, happy and loving future she deserves — and never let her go without the care she should always have had.

Aqua is ready for her second chance. Could you be the person who gives it to her?

Update September 2026
Aqua was lucky to attend a big event at the land where we hope to build our future shelter. She had her own dedicated volunteer looking after her during the day so she could experience the event and have the chance to meet potential adopters.

The event was busy, with lots of people, children, dogs, music and activity going on around her. Aqua really enjoyed her day out. She happily greeted the people who came to see her and loved receiving cuddles and attention. She seemed very happy to be surrounded by people and enjoyed all the interaction she received.

Sadly, nobody fell in love with Aqua that day, so she had to return to the pound after the event. She is now waiting there for the person who will give her the forever home she 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 £595. 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 £595 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 £350 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.
