18 months ago we offered a home to a persons spanish mastiff while she recovered from illness, I don't want to go into details but we still have him.
He's a gorgeous dog, friendly with kids and other dogs and likes nothing more than to be cuddled. He's grey and white and looks a little like a giant wolf.
We would have no problem keeping him as we currently live in the campo but we are moving to an apartment in a few weeks and it wouldn't be fair to keep him there as he's so big.
He seems to prefer to live outside. so ideally you would have a fenced garden. He's just over 3 years old and has been "chopped"
we are close to Pizarra and Malaga

Re: Would anyone Like a Big Dog??
aww,hes lovely.If i didnt have a husband i would have him.I hope you find someone to love him soon.xx
Re: Would anyone Like a Big Dog??
He is lovely! So hard to rehome dogs when there are so many deserving cases. Have you tried the usual routes - poster in your local vets and shops etc? The vets worked for me when I found a stray on our finca, a scruffy looking specimen with a gammy leg, I did not hold out much hope, as, to blunt, he was not exactly pretty, but he was rehomed with an English family and all lived happily ever after I hear. On the other hand, a couple I know have two pedigree spanish water dogs that they cannot find homes for and both are gorgeous - a six-month old very pretty black female and a very placid 4-year old shaggy brown male

Yes we have posters up in several places but there seems to be very little interest
Re: Would anyone Like a Big Dog??
Cannot understand why anyone would not want a perro de agua,they are super dogs to have as long as you give them a job to do and they get bags and bags of exercise!I have one myself and if I didnt already have too many dogs I would gladly take them.Hope they find a good home soon.
Re: Would anyone Like a Big Dog??
Just far too many deserving cases I guess, don't give up just yet Trackbikes! Yes Kexon they are gorgeous dogs arn't they? But your right, perro de agua's do require a lot of exercise, being a working dog - and a good deal of discipline, I am finding, being the proud owner of one myself!!
