Zep – already in the UK looking for foster or adoption
This Is Zep, he was brought over to the U.K. by another Spanish rescue 18 months ago.
Zep is a 2 year old GSD Mastin cross, currently living outside of Taunton, Somerset. He’s only a small size for a mastin cross, he weighs 28kg. Sadly Zep’s adopter has split from her partner, she has a young child and the current living arrangements really aren’t suitable for him. He’s a lovely affectionate boy but he can be anxious and present accommodation isn’t helping as it’s too small for him plus he has no outside space.
Zep is good with other dogs with careful introductions but he cannot live with cats or small furries. His adopter loves him but she feels the present situation unfair on him and he is left alone when she goes to work.
We are urgently seeking an adopter or foster home for him, so please contact us if you would like more information about this gorgeous boy – adoptions@spanishstraydogs.org.uk
Zep 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.
For adoption costs elsewhere, or for help and advice please e-mail adoptions@spanishstraydogs.org.uk
