Valentin – a dog that will bring love and joy to your life
Valentin was found with his siblings in Spain as very small pups. We took them under our wing and covered boarding kennels for them so they would not have to go to one of the pounds in the north where they would most likely die of cold and neglect. Together with his siblings he was adopted in the UK. He now finds himself an abandoned pup once again.
Height: approximately 65cm Weight: approximately 35kg
Valentin is a beautiful and lovely boy who just wants to play. He is boisterous and the family felt they could not have him as too strong for them and the young children. Valentin has the best of intentions and he is an adolescent that needs some training. His breed is highly intelligent so he should respond to positive reward training very quickly. His siblings are both adopted and are the most wonderful of pets. We feel that Valentin did not have the attention he needed. He will need a loving adopter that has some experience with dogs so can work with him to bring out the very well behaved pet we know he can be. He gets on with other dogs and greets them enthusiastically when on walks as he is, you guessed, a very enthusiastic dog. He would be better in a home with no cats as he will want to play with them and as he is boisterous, this may bother them. We cannot wait for this gorgeous dog to get the person that he deserves. We called him Valentine because he is full of love. Will you be his valentine for the rest of his life?
Valentin is available for adoption in UK. Home check and adoption fee apply. Adoption fee includes neutering, passport, microchip, all vaccinations, blood tests to screen for diseases, worm and flea treatment.

Give him a home and he will be your best friend
Amigo arrived at the pound in March 2018 and was approximately 9 years old on arrival. He is a large male Labrador who was handed into the pound by his owner.
Height: approximately 65cm Weight: approximately 35kg
Another loyal companion dumped at the pound during his twilight years. Who knows why. Maybe he got in the way, maybe they bought a younger version, maybe they got bored of him. What we do know is that poor Amigo does not deserve to be in the pound and is finding the whole situation very stressful and traumatic. He is a large, strong dog who will need to be placed with someone with experience. But he is a good boy and should be easy to train and really all he wants is to play, go for walks, eat, sleep and cuddle. Not too much to ask considering what he will give back in return.
Amigo is available for adoption in Germany, UK, Sweden, Finland, Holland, Spain and many other countries. Homecheck and adoption fee apply. Adoption fee includes neutering, passport, microchip, all vaccinations, blood tests to screen for diseases, worm and flea treatment.
