Tessa is one of the SeBPRA trustees and organises the day to day running of SeBPRA alongside Sarah, from liasing with shelters to helping support adopters. I started helping with SeBPRA in 2018, as I was determined to help the Brittanys that ended up in rescue shelters in Spain, often for years.

Later that night we were on the phone and the rest is history. Remy slotted straight into our family with Mack (Irish Setter) and Alf (English Setter).Read More →

Dawn is a SeBPRA trustee charity and is responsible for the co-ordination of transport for the dogs from Spain to the UK and all the associated post-Brexit paperwork.
