August at the refuge is a time when adoptions are usually few and far between, with lots of people still on holiday. However this year seems to be bucking the trend. There were three adoptions today, and although dogs continue to arrive, the steady stream of adoptions means that the SCPA is coping reasonably well…

Adoption of a small black dog and a big white one
Today was Pentecost, but so what? For many years the ScPA was shut on Sundays and Bank Holidays. Of course staff were present in the mornings to feed and clean out the animals and give medicines as required, but after that they were left alone for what was a long day. Things changed last summer and…
Adoptions of Goliath and Fossette
Two more adoptions today to keep things ticking over and moral on a high. First to leave was Goliath. We have noticed on a couple of previous occasions that for some dogs, adopters are like buses. You wait for ages and then they all come at once. Such was the case for Goliath. This dogue…
Adoption of Puppy Popy
It was another fabulously sunny day today, and it brought a new home to a very lucky puppy. Popy and his 2 pals were brought to the ScPA towards the end of January following a phone call from the Mairie of a nearby village. As was the case with the seven dogs brought in last…
Adoption of Paco and Pebble
Great news today, there were two adoptions First Paco. He has only been at the refuge since just after the New Year, but this was his third time at the ScPA. And he was so distressed at being returned to the refuge after his recent failed adoption that all he did was cry. He really…
Adoption of Karadoc….
Well today has been a cold miserable day so when the refuge messaged to say that our DRC sponsor boy Karadoc had been adopted it certainly cheered me up! Kardoc arrived in August as a stray and why its taken so long for him to be adopted is anyone’s guess. Perfect on the lead, calm,…
And the last leaver before Christmas is….
Most of you probably know that December 24th is a big night in France. Most people meet with family for the evening and often this goes well into the early hours. So perhaps today is not the ideal day to adopt a dog. In fact many refuges do not allow adoptions to take place in…
Urgent Appeal: Karadoc
Our urgent appeal this time is for Karadoc. We have chosen him for no other reason than that no one seems to notice him, yet the person who does will be very lucky indeed. There is no reason at all why a dog like this should be at the ScPA. Karadoc is an absolute gem….
Minta leaves for her forever family…
When Minta first arrived in August this year we assumed that as a beautiful white griffon cross she would be snapped up right away. But we were wrong. In September she caught the eye of a couple from the Uk who really loved the look of her and were sure that her keen scent hound…
Adoption of Perceval
Today was a rainy one in Carcassonne, so it is not surprising that in contrast to last Friday’s bumper day, we only had one adoption. For those of you who follow the ScPA and pay attention to such things, the name Perceval should flag up that this dog must have arrived while the person allocating…
