Berta – A Timid Beauty Ready to Blossom
Berta is a stunning one-year-old Podengo with the most captivating eyes you’ll ever see. This lovely girl is a little shy around people, but she gets along wonderfully with other dogs and enjoys their company.
Despite her initial timidity, Berta’s curiosity shines through. She already takes treats gently from your hand, which is a promising sign of her trust growing day by day. With a little patience, love, and understanding, we’re confident she will learn to enjoy human company and even come to cherish cuddles.
Berta is a sweet and sensitive soul who is ready to bloom in the right home. She would thrive in a calm and loving environment, perhaps with another dog to help her feel more at ease.
If you’re looking for a gentle companion with a curious and hopeful spirit, Berta could be the one. Can you offer her the chance to feel safe and loved? She’s ready to begin her journey with you!
Berta 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.
