TRISTAN – TIME TO FORGET THE PAST
This poor boy arrived as a bag of bones. So weak and skinny, so so sad. He must have been tied up somewhere in the sun for days without food. He is now being well looked after but is still struggling to put weight on. Such a shame. He hasn’t previously been socialised with other dogs it seems and is very defensive around them. With humans he is great so would love a home as an only dog with a German Shepherd loving family.
Tristan now shares a cage with another German Shepherd male and he goes out on the patio with other dogs during the day.
He is very good on the lead, he does not pull and does not seem bothered by people, cars and dogs passing by.
Tristan 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. If the cost of transport exceeds £320 you may be asked to give an amount towards this.
