Seven weeks ago a tiny terrier cross called Daisy arrived at the refuge VERY pregnant. We whipped her right down to the vets who confirmed that she was already in labour and a few hours later we had 5 healthy pups!
The refuge is no place for a mum and new borns but luckily Cyndy stepped in and offered to foster this little family. A new mum and 5 pups is a huge responsibility and lots of work but its also so very gratifying to see the pups grow and develop into happy healthy pups.
The pups are seven weeks old now, healthy and absolutely gorgeous! Like their mum Daisy they will be small as adults, Daisy only weighs 8kgs!
Its very important how pups are treated from birth and the first few weeks are extremely important and can have a great impact on their future behaviour. These lucky pups have been very well socialised with other animals, adults and children and of course have been with their mum since birth.
Now its time to find this little family a home. Daisy, the mum who is three and a half needs a home as do all five pups. They are 7 weeks on Saturday and will be available for adoption at just over 8 weeks. In the mean time they can be seen and reserved by interested parties.
So, how do you adopt a pup?
To adopt a pup we first ask you to complete a questioner. We then have a chat and arrange for you to see the pups. Should you want to adopt we ask for proof of ID and address, the adoption fee is 200 euros. We ask for a cheque de caution of 300 euros , which is not cashed, but returned to you when you send proof of sterilisation at about 6 months.
Should you be interested in a pup then please just get in contact with us, website@dogrescuecarcassonne.co.uk or for French speakers spacarcassonne@yahoo.fr
But today is not just about pups. Lovely Omera, the 5 year old staffie x found her forever home. She only arrived at the start of August so has been a very lucky girl to be adopted so quickly!
