Grand Français breed, Daphnée is 4 years old and a lovely girl with the most beautiful eyes. Like most hounds Daphnee is ok with dogs & children, but possibly not cats. She is an energetic young lady and needs a secure garden fenced to at least 1.80m high. The facilities at the refuge mean that she is rather restricted and frustrated, so a proper home with a large, appropriately fenced garden would be absolute heaven for her.

This young lady is around 2 years old and a Malinois cross. Very energetic and intelligent, she lives for her walks and needs plenty of exercise. Laika’s early life was very unsettled, so she is looking for a caring, knowledgeable owner who can offer her the stability, training and affection that she very much deserves.

Oly is just approaching 7 years old and is a typical, loveable Beagle who arrived due to his owner no longer having enough time for him. He’s a little overweight, but with more regular exercise and access to a garden he would soon slim down. Oly loves his walks and tends to pull with enthusiasm – again, more regular exercise would probably help with this. At the refuge he doesn’t bother much with the other dogs and enjoys spending a little free time tootling happily around with another male dog.

My goodness, what a lovely young girl Alaska is! Initially very shy (she arrived with Nala), she is blossoming into an absolutely super dog. Pure Malinois, currently around 11 months old, she is absolutely ready for a life of love coupled with the exercise and activity necessary to satisfy the needs of this very sensitive, athletic and intelligent breed. We certainly don’t want to see her wasting her potential in the refuge.

Nala is a beautiful, young female Beauceron, approximately two years old. She was very timid when she first arrived, but has really grown in confidence and now is able to demonstrate her adorable, affectionate and playful nature. Nala needs an understanding family who will continue her training, provide fun and exercise while helping her to reach her full potential.

This scrumptious boy is a German shepherd x Malinois of around 3 yrs old, a very handsome, sporty dog who adores playing fetch. He arrived at the refuge due to his owner’s health problems and possibly had a restricted life as he tends to be a bit over energetic and impulsive, rather like a large puppy! Loki has a super character and loves people. Other dogs, he’s not so sure about but he is absolutely fine with a female hound at the refuge and mostly ignores the other dogs. Being very intelligent, he would really enjoy learning new skills to perfect his manners and channel his energy.

Kaila Beautiful Kaila has the most adorable face and eyes that literally shine with intelligence. She is a shepherd mix, born on November 9, 2019, so a nice, middling age. Very endearing and affectionate with people, Kaila used to enjoy walking but more recently (unless she is following other dogs) she will only go a short distance before wanting to turn back. Perhaps she feels unsafe or is she becoming ‘institutionalised’? Kaila is well-behaved in the car and keeps her kennel very clean and tidy.
She is making progress in getting along with other dogs, but it’s thought to be best for her to be the only dog in the household. Please don’t let this lovely young lady waste away in the refuge she will make a wonderful companion for someone.

Home required for our stunning German Pointer bitch. She is sterilized, innoculated and microchipped
Unfortunately, here she is one of seven dogs and is dominant with the other bitches. She gets on absolutely fine with the male dogs.
Jaz is very loving and affectionate to her owners and sticks to you like glue. She is used to horses and her recall is not at all bad. She would adore to be the only dog or to live with a male
She is approximately two years old, she is house-trained, and can be left for a couple of hours quite happily
If you would like to adopt Jaz she is in Dept 87 in Bellac. Please contact Gail Povey 0n tél: 07 69 01 50 92
Meet Simba, a 19 month old Jack Russell cross with beautifully coloured fur that looks and feels like velvet. This adorable little lad is currently discovering all the joys of normal life after spending his early days at the end of a tether. With his limited experience he does of course have a lot to learn, but already he is enjoying walks, loves to play and is as energetic and full of fun as you would expect for his age and breed type. I’m sure that he will soon adjust to life in a home and prove to be a loveable, fun companion!
These two lovely dogs urgently need to find new homes. Their owner is very unwell and unable to take them back to the UK with her as she is going to live with her sister and brother in a small terraced house with no garden.
Maisie (black) is around 7 years old and is medium size. She is chipped but not sterilised and her vaccinations are not up to date. She is very well mannered and clean in the house. She has never encountered children and is not keen on cats. Maisie has not had a lot of exercise but this could be due to her owners health problems restricting this. She would probably benefit from a more active lifestyle. She has been with the current owner since she was 8 weeks old.
Gus (brown) is a 10 year old medium size Labrador x. He’s been neutered and chipped but his vaccinations are not up to date due to his owners health problems. He is very well mannered and clean in the house, but has never encountered children. He is not keen on cats or thunder, but very laid back about life otherwise. Gus is not an overly active dog, but again this could be due to her owners health problems restricting this. He has been with the her since he was one year old.
The owner doesn’t have the microchip details but has said that the vet in Bellac has this on file.
Both dogs can be quite vocal when people first arrive at the house, but they soon settle down and become very gentle.
Their owner has accepted an offer for the sale of her property so it has become urgent to find homes. It would be lovely if they could be rehomed together, but it is more imperative that they find new homes regardless.
Tokyo Tonka Truck. This is her serious face when she first arrived and was worried; she does smile and is a very happy girl. Tokyo is nearly 2 years old and a real sweetheart with a lovely nature. When out of the box she romps about with her kennel buddy and loves to play. Tokyo needs a little more practice on the lead because she is a strong muscular girl with low body gravity and has no idea that there is a mere mortal on the other end of the lead. We are more a minor irritation that is slowing her down, but she will learn. We can cat test if necessary. Tokyo is very young and deserves better than growing up in a refuge, she would be a wonderful pal and you would soon have magnificent muscle definition.
Here we have the leggy bundle of scrumptiousness that is Youri, a handsome griffon cross of 4-5 years old who was found wandering.
Youri was terrified of humans, so at first no-one could approach him as he would simply run away and hide. With patience, and of course some tempting tasty treats, he has gradually learned to trust again. Youri is still a very timid lad but he has made good progress, greatly helped by sharing his box with a confident female dog. Today he goes for walks, lets himself get closer and closer and even wags his tail with enthusiasm at the sight of his harness. Like the vast majority of abandoned chasse-type dogs, Youri is a tender soul and very endearing to those he knows and trusts.
Any potential adopter will need to put in plenty of time and effort to win Youri’s trust, and I think he is very likely to need one or more doggy companions in any future home to help him feel safe and to show him the ropes. Those who have adopted a ‘chasse’ dog like Youri (including myself) know that they usually adapt to a home with ease, appreciating the warmth, love and comfort as only such often abused dogs can. Youri is vaccinated, micro-chipped and castrated.
If you feel you have what it takes to help Youri enjoy a wonderful new life, come to meet him, or call/email for further info at: Refuge Animalier Bortois Rue des Deux Eaux 19110 BORT LES ORGUES, Correze Tel: 05 55 96 70 51/refugebortois@gmail.com
