Chia – A Gentle Soul Who’s Suffered Too Much…

Chia is a beautiful little Breton, around two and a half years old, who recently arrived at the pound in a heartbreaking state. Her skin was in terrible condition – raw, damaged, and painful. It’s hard to understand how anyone could allow a dog to reach such a level of neglect. Looking at her, it’s clear she has endured far more than any animal ever should.

And yet, despite everything, Chia has the sweetest, most trusting nature. From the moment she arrived, she has shown nothing but kindness and gratitude. She lights up when she sees you, gently wagging her tail, hoping for a cuddle or a treat. It’s as if she’s just waiting for someone to show her the love she’s always deserved.

Thankfully, Chia is now receiving the treatment she so badly needed, and she’s responding well. Her skin is healing, and so is her spirit. She’s also getting along well with the other dogs at the pound, showing her gentle and social personality.

But no dog should have to recover in a cage. Chia needs a loving home where she can continue to heal – not just physically, but emotionally. She’s ready to put the past behind her and discover what it means to be truly cared for.

Please consider opening your heart to this brave little girl. Chia has already suffered so much, and now she deserves peace, kindness, and a forever home filled with love.

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 £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.
