Mari

Mari is an incredibly sweet girl who adores people and snuggles. She’s fantastic with other dogs and happily shares her cage with several furry friends. Such a good girl!

Mari went into foster for a week due to the pound flooded in March, she is now back at the pound and is doing well with the other dogs. Her foster told us;
“Mari is a lovely girl, she’s super friendly, excellent with children. I have 2 daughters, one is 2 years old and the other is 5 years old, and she has no problem being around them and playing with them. We have been fostering her for a week and she has settled in well. We have another smaller dog with whom she also plays.
Mari can stay home alone without any problems, and taking her for a walk is easy since she doesn’t pull. She has a very good temperament, and every dog she sees, she wants to play with. And she listens very well. I tell her to come to me, and she comes right away.
Unfortunately, probably due to her past, she is afraid of vehicles and loud noises, but with a little reassurance, she overcomes that fear. I’ve noticed that she is afraid of men. Maybe because they tend to be taller. But every time she sees a man, she stops and crosses over to the other side to avoid being next to them.”

Mari 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 £570, 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 £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.
