We often get older doggies arriving at the refuge when their owner takes ill or moves into residential care but that was not the case with poor Jageur. Jageur was abandoned at 11 years of age and he is HATING refuge life. All this boy wants is his family back. In all my time at…

Selmo’s Saturday
In Thursday’s blog we told you about the adoption of Selmi. Well today a dog who we are pretty sure is her brother was adopted. We could be wrong, but they are the same age, were found in the same area and have almost identical markings. We named him Selmo. You see how much trouble…
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…
Yesterday’s adoption of Selmi
There was no blog yesterday although there was an adoption. To be honest I was hoping for another adoption today to make the blog a two-for one, but it was not to be, although we did have a reservation. So in any case, back to yesterday. Gorgeous Selmi arrived at the refuge in mid October…
Two on Tuesday
Today two more dogs left the refuge, both of them were small young females whom we could have rehomed several times over. So inevitably there will be some people who are disappointed, but we hope that they will not abandon their quest to find the perfect pooch. We firmly believe that there is a home…
Two dogs are rehomed
Two dogs who were brought to the ScPA for rehoming left for new lives today! Google arrived at the ScPA at the end of May, meaning he has spent a whole six months at the refuge. That is less than many of our dogs, but a long time for a dog whom, thanks to his…
Saving Leo…
At the beginning of October 3 joggers arrived at the SPA with the biggest dog we have ever seen. A magnificent 75kg Berger de Caucase, who we called Leo. Found as a stray we checked him over for a microchip. Our delight at finding one was short lived when we discovered that it was an…
D-Day for Dexter and Feargal is adopted too!
Earlier this month the ScPA (via DRC) played host to a youg woman called Ellie who wished to add to her not inconsiderable knowledge of dog behaviour. She spent the week learning about refuge life, walking dogs and talking about all things dog with just about everyone she met. While she was with us, a…
Two Friday leavers
Tylian arrived at the SPA almost four weeks ago, and as is so often the case he was not identified. Sadly as is also so often the case, he was terrified, and the first photos show him quivering in someone’s arms. The ScPA has an obligation to try and find each dog’s owners, so naturally…
Another day, another pup
Today we had the adoption of another puppy, puppy. This is great for him, as until yesterday he had been sharing an inside kennel with Potiron. And I have to say, as Potiron left with his new family, Buster did not look at all impressed. However later on the same day, he was spotted by…
