Ita always nice to end the week with an adoption and today’s lucky leaver was Elsa, an eighteen month old Pyrenean Mountain Dog. When she arrived about a month ago we were all sure that the beautiful girl would be reclaimed, but no, for a reason that we will never know, no one came looking…

Bolide| A532
Male, Young, Large Oh, poor Bolide. He waited so long for his home and everything was going so well for him. The ScPA received countless photos of him in his new life, and his family was enchanted with him. Sadly they did not tell us that Bolide was having problems sharing with the family’s cat….
Adoption of puppy Crocs and socialising in the sun
Today saw the adoption of puppy Crocs, who as you will doubtless have guessed, is one of the shoes litter. He is an adorable little chap, and his new family fell under his charm as soon as they set eyes on him. They are good friends of one of the employees, so not only will…
Adoption of Barbara
I was just about to post Barbara on the DRC website, adding the words that a dog of this size and this sweet was sure to be adopted quickly and that anyone interested should hurry up. Before this was even on line, Barbara was off to a new life. Yes, some dogs spend very little…
Adoption of Belle and Chausson
This week’s first adoptions came a bit quicker than last week’s, as today is Wednesday and we have had two lucky leavers. First off was little Belle. She has had a bit of a checkered history, as we have rehomed some of her pups in the past. At that time we tried to persuade her…

Today has brought another adoption, this time it was the turn of little beagle cross Lulu. Admittedly she doesn’t look much like a beagle, and one could almost think she was a slightly large border terrier. But if you had any doubts as to her beagle heritage, all you had to do is wait for…

Well, it has been a long week, waiting for the first adoption. At last today two, no THREE) dogs left the refuge for new lives.

The Dreaded Parvovirus; What is it?
Today is Thursday and as there have still not been any adoptions this week, Moira and I decided that we better blog before you all think that we have fallen off the map! Sadly the subject is not a joyous one, but concerns something that is very topical. Many people are aware that there is…

Today brought the wonderful news of the adoption of Falbala, and guess what? She is another black dog, making this a great week for dogs of this colour. Falbala has been at the refuge for over six months, and when you consider that she was only a year old at the time of her arrival,…
