Selva

Selva arrived in January with her mum and sibling, Selva was lucky to go into a wonderful foster home, and this is what they share with us in June:

“Selva is a very active and affectionate dog. When you arrive home, she welcomes you with enthusiasm, and one of her ways to show her love is by affectionately biting your wrist. She gets along well with all dogs, regardless of their size or whether they are male or female. Despite being very rough while playing, Selva is very sensitive to people’s emotions. If she sees you crying, she will run to stick her nose in your face, lick you, or bite you until she manages to uncover your face. She knows how to sit, responding even to the sound of a treat package or if she sees that you have some food in your hand. She is very intelligent but very selective about what she decides to learn. She loves to play, run, be cuddled with all the love in the world, and, above all, sleep together in bed (she usually sleeps by your feet by her own choice).”

Selva 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.
