CHEWBACA – A SAD SOUL
Chewbaca was found on the streets by a friend of the pound and taken to the police station. He had a chip but unfortunately, no sign of his owner on the phone or at the address and poor Chewbaca has had to wait months for us to be able to home him. When he was arrived he really didn’t know what was going on and was very scared. He seemed well looked after so he must have been loved at some point. He took a while to settle and trust the volunteers but he’s now made lots of new dog friends and is less stressed. He would like an experienced family who will let him settle in at his own pace. He can easily live with other dogs.
Chewbaca 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 £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 £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.
