Molly Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 Last October, we found two puppies dumped in the ditch at the bottom of our drive. Last Christmas we managed to find a good home for Willow and she continues to thrive. We kept her sister Saffron, who is according to the vet, half golden labrador and half beagle. She has had her operation (no puppies), all her vaccinations, she has a chip and is a very healthy dog.Unfortunately we must now look for a good home for Saffron as we already have a small teckel and the two dogs do not get along. The vet suggested having an inside dog and an outside dog but with winter fast approaching we feel it is unfair to keep Saffron out in the cold (well not too cold we have outbuildings). We therefore wish to give her to a good home. She is loving and very good with children. This has not been an easy decision to make. We live in the Midi-Pyrenées.

WJT Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 It is such a shame after a year you must give her up [:(] Sorry, I cannot help. Have you found her a home yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly Posted October 17, 2006 Author Share Posted October 17, 2006 It is a shame that we have decided to give Saffron away after having her for a year but after several months of indecision we all feel that we cannot make the step to keep her for another twelve years or more. It is too much of a commitment.Unfortunately no one has said yes we can offer her a home so we must now do some research into the welfare options around Toulouse.We feel sad that people are so thoughtless as to dump puppies in the first place but our vet says it is only too common.Molly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Molly Posted October 22, 2006 Author Share Posted October 22, 2006 Dear LorraineMany thanks for your reply. Saffron is very good with children, especially with our 2 year old who at times can be particulary boisterous with her. She tends to be a little timid with strangers until she knows them. There does not appear to be any problem with other dogs, although she does get a little jealous if our other dog gets a little too much attention at her cost. We cannot comment on how she would interact with horses as she has, to our knowledge, never come into contact with any. We would expect her to very timid and cautious to start off with until she got to know and trust the other animals.We do have a couple of photographs of Saffron (name picked because of her colour) but cannot work out how to attach them to this message! If you want to send us a private email then we will forward these to you.Molly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJT Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I hope Molly hasn't missed your post Noddy. Thought I would bring this thread back up. However, this thread seems to have a tech problem.Edit: Oops I now see that Molly responded [:$]. At least on my computer it is very strange because I had to scroll down a long way to see the post. I hope it works out with Saffron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
