Rolo is a gorgeous, medium-sized, adorable Pointer boy, with a all black, sleek coat. Rolo is such a lovely dog, who hasn’t had a very nice life so far. He’s a typical Pointer: strong, energetic, friendly and affectionate. He is not at all aggressive, but he is quite boisterous! Rolo is obliging on the lead, he pulls at first, because he is so happy to be out and free, but soon becomes more manageable. We are working with more training on the lead.He is 65cm at the shoulder and about 27 kilos. He is a gentle boy and loves affection and attention from the people who visit him.
 
Poor Rolo belongs to an elderly man, who used to use him for hunting. However, the man can no longer get about, and he has left Rolo to live on his own, in a pen on a piece of land outside the village. The man’s daughter-in-law feels very sorry for Rolo and she visits as often as she can (twice a week) to feed him and let him out of the pen for a run around, which he adores. But poor boy spends 90% of his time alone. He is lonely and frustrated. He longs for human company and has so much to give to his new owner.
 
Rolo is not cat tested and hasn´t shared with other male dogs up to now, but he has a good nature and would equally be suited as an only dog or with another female. We think he would thrive in a loving home, with some much deserved TLC and a garden to plod around in he will make a loyal, loving family pet. We think children over 10 would fit with Rolo well.

  • Adopting A DogWatch UK Rescue Dog:
  • Homecheck:
  • For Rescue Dogs coming from overseas:
  • Adoption Fee: £
Before being adopted, dogs will have been vaccinated, wormed and treated for fleas.
If old enough they will have been neutered, if too young, then the new owners will need to ensure this is done and proof sent to us once complete. All dogs are microchipped

All new owners will need to change their new dogs microchip information to their contact details. DogwatchUk does this on your behalf so that we know that its been done.

All our adoptions are subject to successful homechecks which are carried out via a video call. There is now a deposit for all homechecks of £25 which is deducted from the adoption fee.
The adoption fee is paid via bank transfer to the UK (or Paypal) and covers the cost of passport, bloods, microchip, vaccines and neutering (if over 6 months) also transport costs/taxes from Spain to the UK.
If you are adopting a UK dog then the process is still the same but there will be no bloods or passport or transport costs.
If the homecheck fails the £25 will be reimbursed.
If the application is withdraw after the homecheck this is non refundable.
Our checker will be given your details to contact you. 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.
Proof of ID and landlord permission (if applicable) is required

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.

Paid to the Spanish rescue via UK bank account
