Roko is a handsome, gorgeous and friendly 7 and a half year old Rottweiler boy. He has the traditional black and tan coat and he is presently stuck in a Spanish Pound, after being left by his English owners. In Spain, they do not like Rotties so we are keen to help him back to the UK or he will stay there forever in a hot dusty pound -and this week its been 40 degrees out there.
He walks really well on the lead. He is good with other dogs, and is ok with cats also – although we would recommend gentle introduction, we can ask for video with the cats test. He can live with other dogs and also children over 10 years

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.
