About This Dog for Adoption

Poppy's ideal home

Poppy is a sweet girl who is on the search for a new home. She has been good meeting people here and likes but a bit of fuss. Unfortunately due to a history of guarding items Poppy needs an adult-only home. She would love a family who can take their time gradually building up her doggy social skills and will need to be the only dog in the home. Poppy has lived with cats before and could do so again, as long as her new family are able to introduce them slowly, potentially keeping them separate at first. A secure garden will be essential for Poppy as she can get quite uncomfortable seeing dogs out and about.

Could you be Poppy's perfect match?

Poppy is a 7yr old Beagle who came into our care due to a change in working hours that meant she was being faced with the prospect of being left for long hours. This isn’t something she enjoys anyway and has displayed separation related behaviours so she’d love to find a new family who are around all the time to begin with. Time left alone can then be gradually introduced so she can see it as a more positive thing in future. Fortunately she’s got a really good history of car travel so can join her family out and about instead. Poppy tries to keep her kennel clean here and was housetrained in the home. With a quick refresher and access to her own garden she should pick it up again no problems!
