Poppy

Poppy's ideal home

Poppy can live with other dogs, potentially a cat if properly introduced, and children of high school age. She is house trained but may need to get used to a new routine, and can be left by herself for a couple of hours. Poppy does have ongoing ear problems and arthritis that require medication.

Could you be Poppy's perfect match?

Beautiful Poppy is such a gentle girl and she's had a difficult time of late. Her owner is very ill and Poppy had to spend a few months in boarding kennels before coming to us, so she was feeling a little displaced. We got her set up in one of our foster homes straight away, as she's an older girl of about 14. She's ever so good in the home and enjoys going out for a gentle plod, where she does her best to take advantage of every bit of discarded takeaway! Due to recurring ear infections, Poppy is on steroids so drinks a lot of water, and she is used to being given food by her owner every time she barked. When out for her walks, Poppy does take some interest in saying hello to other dogs and introduces herself politely. She struggles with stairs at home due to her achy limbs, so sleeps happily downstairs.
