The people loved Paco, warts and all!!!  They decided not to take the Dalmatian as he is very strong and excitable and as Paco is a nervous dog they wanted a dog that would hopefully keep him stress free, so they have adopted Adela the Spanish Mastin (sorry no photo, I will rectify that tomorrow when they come to collect her)
Paco went home with them tonight, they paid for him 50€ (chip, injections, worm tablet and passport) and then gave a donation of 50€ too  They then said they would pay for Adela today, and then gave another 50€ donation!!!   Yoli´s (the president of the refuge) mouth was wide open with shock, that 100€ will go towards paying for the mastin pups vet bill (who´s eye was removed) 
A very good evening :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
They are sure Paco will be walking on a lead very soon.  I had a message, they had bought 100€ worth of dog food on the way home!!!!!  Blimey, I think our dogs should go and live with them too.  They have a 5,000sq mtr garden, so just enough space for him to run about in!!! 
I had forgotten all about the web page I had put him on!!!  I will add other dogs to it now!

I'm so glad Paco has a good home to go to - he's such a lovely looking dog and I am sure a bit of care and attention will remove those 'warts'.

As soon as they saw him they wanted him. They did consider the Dalmatian, but he and Paco are not friends as such, so decided to take Adela, the Mastin. She has been at the refuge such a long time, well about 18 months. I am off to the refuge this morning, the new owners ate coming for Adela around mid-day.
The vet bill for the pup that had her eye removed was just over 250€ so the 100€ will help a lot !!! We hope to get a Mastin/German shepherd cross and a Staffy in Adela's outside kennel run, as the dogs get on well outside, thenwe will have 2 stables empty, if things work out ok we can then collect the Podenco and her 8 pups from the foster home :D

Happy days  :D :D :happy:

I'm so pleased for you and all the other refuge workers  :D  After the recent traumas of dogs being dumped on you and the poor dog who lost her eye, it must be such a boost  :)

The new owners sound like lovely people who really care about dogs as well, so lucky Paco and Adela  :)

That is great news Pamela, the fingers crossed must have worked.   :lol:

I hope that these people keep in contact with the refuge to let you know how the dogs progress.   :)

Adela the Mastin and her new owners.   :D

PS  I have just watched a really upsetting Youtube video of the Podenco dogs in Spain.  We have 2 Podenco´s at the refuge, our dogs are so lucky!!  I won´t post the link, it is not suitable for a child to see

Brilliant news Pamela, those two pups have certainly fallen on their paws with that couple  :)
Staffies are softer than you think.

Brilliant! Reading this good news has made my day.  Let's hope some other kind souls find you and take some dogs home to love.

There is a chance the same family will adopt the other Mastin we have, Pancho.  He has Leish, so would be very hard to ever re-home. So we are keeping our fingers crossed hard!!
