Zorro
Zorro, a one year old border collie type is a typical one year old boy. Boisterous, friendly and just right for training (agility ?). Vaccinated and will be chipped when the right home is found.
Adoptions
Delphine
Delphine is very dear to us here at Poorpaws. Adopted from us a couple of years ago, Delphine is the mother of my own dear little Eenie who was stolen from me. I was tempted to keep Delphine but was persuaded to let her go to what was at the time a lovely home. Sadly, through no fault of her own, Delphine is soon to be homeless again. About four or five years old, she is sterilised, chipped and vaccinated.
Chelsea
Chelsea was rescued from a refuge by a well meaning English family who now find themselves obliged to return to the UK, dogless. This means that Chelsea, Zorro and Delphine (see below) are all looking for new homes. Chelsea is 5 years old, sterilised, chipped and vaccinated. A truly loving faithful friend Chelsea is nevertheless very timid therefore we would not recommend a home with lively young children. A nice retired couple is what we are looking for here!
Kiki
Little Kiki here really deserves loving home. Rescued once seven years ago when a baby, Kiki has been living with an elderly lady who loves him. However the lady now has to go to live with her daughter who has two Rottweilers who, although good dogs, scare the living shit out of poor Kiki who has started peeing in the home. This was not acceptable so the lady has asked me to find him someone nice to take care of him. He is here at Poorpaws and I can guarantee that the indoor peeing has stopped. He will have a haircut very soon and lose two tiny family jewels, so may end up being “Keek !!”. Totally fine with the dogs here and no worries as far as cats are concerned.
Greta
Ok for those of you who love big pups (who will turn into big dogs) here is the gorgeous Greta, as in Garbo, but this one certainly does not ” want to be alone” !! Greta is just coming up to six months and is a beautiful dog. Fine with other dogs and cats, very intelligent and faithful. She really does tick all the boxes -unless you are looking for a lap dog !!
Bloom
Bella at Poorpaws always get lots of “Ooohs” and “Ahhhs” when people come here but she is just not adoptable. HOWEVER here we have Bloom who looks just like our Bella and is much less complicated – in fact not complicated at all, an absolute darling in fact. At two years old she is fine with other dogs, nervous of cats – but that would soon pass – and is just GREAT with people loving to be cuddled and fussed (possibly for the first time in her life). I can tell you from personal experience that this breed of dogs are lovely.
Tina
Tina. This lovely girl has been at the refuge at Carcassonne for toooooooooo long, in fact since 2010. Born in August 2006 she is great with other dogs, cats, and children as well as being very beautiful. Good basic obediance skills, quick and willing to learn, the only thing she doesn’t like is being left alone for a long time, then she will try to escape. So if you are looking for a pal for your dog or a gorgeous constant companion, Tina is for you.
Oh, forgot to say, your children driving you nuts ? Then follow this recipe. Take, children, Tina and a ball, mix ingrediants in a garden and leave to play for HOURS ! Tina will love it !
Nawak
Most of you will know that I love Brittany Spaniels and here is a beauty. Two years old Nawak is a lovely boy who has just arrived at the refuge in Cahors. A lively lad Nawak will need a home where he gets plenty of exercise with someone who will finish the education started. Cats are a grey area, but with slow and careful introduction, should be fine.
Poppy and pups
Just look at me, aren’t I just the most beautiful mum ?! I’m a young Braque who was either chucked out for getting “into trouble” or I got lost – I’m so frazzled with this brood to look after that I can’t remember ! Anyway my babes will be ready to go to new homes at the end of March (thank goodness !) – one of the brown ones is reserved already - and I’ll be looking for someone to love me too. I’m basically a hunting dog but if you know Braques you will know that we are elegant, intelligent and make wonderful pets. At the moment we are in the 87 department but would be very willing to travel to the right home.
These little cuties are two male setterX and a female Border ColleyX. All about two and a half months old.
Duffy
Duffy
The other day I was asked if I could possibly take in a two year old female Beagle. Lola had just been adopted so I had a space and agreed. So I went to collect Duffy who turned out to be a six year old Anglo Francais. At least the female part was right !! Apart from the first two ‘mistakes’ everything else I was told about Duffy was correct. She is gorgeous ! Quite a large gangly girl, very affectionate, obedient and timid. She hits the deck if she hears shouting so I think she has known unkindness. Found half starved and covered in ticks she is looking better every day. Duffy is now sterilised, vaccinated and chipped and has never run off whilst out walking, so if you are looking for a largish, loving, softy, Duffy is for you.
Duffy
Frida
Frida here is about 18 months old. Adopted from Poorpaws as a puppy, she sadly had little or no education and was left to roam free day and night. “We don’t agree in restraining our dogs” was the owner’s comment. Pity he didn’t come out with that before he took Frida in the first place. Surprise, surprise Frida has been up to no good and needs a new home with a VERY secure garden and preferably in a town or somewhere well away from sheep. Adorable in all other ways.
