The official charity website Heroes de 4 patas says that it is trying to create a nationwide network that “crosses the fate of retired dogs with families interested in adopting them in order to give them the end they deserve.”

Their website displays dogs that are currently up for adoption as well as happy ending stories of adopted dogs.

Their post on Ator states:

“Introducing Ator (Gladiator). A 7-year old German Shepherd belonging to the National Police that is retired due to problems of hip dysplasia although at the moment he doesn’t have mobility problems and doesn’t take any medication.”

“He is a very docile and noble dog who gets on well with male dogs if they are not dominant and very well with females as well as with adults and children. It is not known if he is good with cats.

“If you want to give him a home write an email to heroesde4patas@hotmail.com and we will tell you the steps to follow.”
