Mac is another brother of Kola and is another beautiful puppy boy. Handsome and built like a whippet again with those long legs! He has a tan, soft, smooth coat with a fawn undercarriage. He has many of his mother’s Podengo characteristics. He is playful but still quite nervous and needs to gain trust. He’s not a big boy but has long legs. He was born to a Podengo street dog and taken from the streets when he was around 3 months old. He gets on well with other dogs and is walking well on a lead. He is doing well trusting humans and will soon be a loving and joyful addition to the family and copes better with another dog. We are looking for a home with another friendly dog for this pup to live with, he isn’t tested with cats and older children above 12 years

Very handsome, gentle and friendly.

Adopting A DogWatch UK Rescue Dog
Before being adopted, dogs will have been vaccinated, wormed and treated for fleas.
If old enough they will have been neutered, if too young the new owners will need to ensure this is done.
All dogs are microchipped
All new owners can apply for 4 weeks Pet Insurance FREE, to apply please ask us for the pamphlet, our charity reference number is 1400005179.
All new owners will need to change their new dogs microchip information to their contact details. This costs £17. If you would like us to arrange this for you, at a reduced rate of £7.20, we will ask you to do a bank transfer to allow us to register the change.
For Rescue Dogs coming from overseas
This adoption fee is a contribution towards the costs of rescuing the dog including
– microchip, pet passport, vaccines, tests for South European diseases, neutering (IF OLD ENOUGH), parasite treatment and transport to the UK.
We can not home dogs from overseas to people who work full time or long hours, unless some sort of doggy day care is offered. They need someone at home a lot of the day, they are not used to being alone for long periods. A dog walker for an hour out of the day is not enough.
Leaving dogs a long time on their own means they are highly likely to develop separation anxiety which is distressing for them and everyone in their new home.
