Details

• 

  Description

  I live in the countryside 30 minutes outside Lugo city, in Galicia north west Spain. Last November I adopted a 9 year old dog called Bella.
  Bella is a very sweet natured & affectionate girl, whose owner sadly died last year. She has settled well in her new home here with me & likes meeting new friends & exploring the beautiful countryside around us.
  We are 40 minutes inland from Foz on the north coast of Galicia, 1 hour from A Coruña airport & the west coast & 1 hour 20 minutes from Santiago airport.
