BOLT – LOVES HIS HOME COMFORTS
Although Bolt is a hunting dog by breed, he loves laying on a sofa on the bed all day, as do so many podencos. Shortly after arriving at the pound he went it foster due to the threat of floods and loves home life. He is a calm dog that is quite nervous of new things but becomes very attached to his humans. he gets on well with other dogs but doesn’t like sharing his things. He walks well on the lead but can be fearful around certain noises but is getting used to different experiences. He is able to stay home alone or laying by someone’s side. He doesn’t bark often, only at at strange noises. He already knows how to do his business in the street so a perfect little dog really. Would quite happily live as an only dog.
Bolt is available for adoption in Germany, UK, Finland and Spain. 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 £520, 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 £520 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 £250 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. If the cost of transport exceeds £250 you may be asked to give an amount towards this.
