Re: Moving to Spain
If you imagine your rent will be €800 a month, minimum.. and you will need to give 2 months deposit then you´ll need say.. €300 a month to live on.. in the first 6 months you´ll of done around €8000 just living. Then you need dog food. And a vet. And a car. and fuel. and car insurance. You´ll easily do the whole 15k in a year.
Not trying to say that it cant be done, but think about it a bit more eh?

Re: Moving to Spain
Anywhere in the west side of malaga. Assuming two dogs would require a garden, or would you have them holed up in an apartment all day? obviosly you can get cheaper.. but it´ll be a hovel.
for example "enaquiler.com" puts the average rent in malaga at €839 / month. And thats gone DOWN by 4.3% from last month.

The OP never mentioned wanting to live in the Malaga area! There are many rental properties ( Town houses and Bungalows) with gardens in the Costa Blanca and Costa del sol areas that would be very suitable for the OP and her dogs and for far less than €800 per month so no need for your attitude.

Re: Moving to Spain
thats very true, the OP never mentioned where shes looking at living, I´ve no idea why I thought of malaga. I suppose that I should of said that I personally couldnt live where I do for long with 15k, not starting from scratch.
