Details of Sombre

Sombre is a very attractive, sandy and cream coloured Mastin girl, who is very friendly with  people and other dogs. She has a sad past history, from being a puppy to four years old she was kept as a gate dog on a large estate and given a concrete shelter to sleep in. Poor Sombre had no love or affection, she was just used to patrol the grounds. Then the couple sold up took the small dog with them and just left Sombre there abandoned.
 
Sombre is learning to walk nicely on a lead. She deserves a new home with people that love her for the first time in her short life. We are looking for a home with or without other friendly dogs. She has not been cat tested. We think older children of 10 upwards would suit her best.

Foster Report:

None yet

Her Best Points:

She is affectionate and loves people. She is a beautiful looking Mastin , walks on the lead and has lived with other dogs on the estate.

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 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.

Homecheck:

All our adoptions are subject to successful homechecks.

The adoption fee is £250.00 for transport plus an adoption fee of £250.00 depending on the breed and age of the cat.  The fee is paid via bank transfer to the UK or Paypal and covers the cost of passport, microchip, vaccines and neutering (if over 6 months) also transport costs/taxes from Spain to the UK.   There is now a deposit for all homechecks of £25 which is deducted from the adoption fee.

If the homecheck fails the £25 will be reimbursed.

All homechecks are now conducted virtually and will be undertaken via video call (using skype, zoom or equivalent).

We will need to meet ALL members of the family living at the address, including children.

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.
