Pip is a 12-13 year old male Podenco Cross. He is gent, with a tan and white, short coat. He was originally from Spain many years ago.
Pip stands at 40 cm, so he is one of the smaller breeds of Podencos and he is also very smart.
Pip lives with 3 other dogs now, so would be ok with a calm dog or, better still, his best mate Hoobee. if you can adopt two calm, gentle dogs together.
Pip is looking for a new retirement home because of a marriage break-up, otherwise, he was very loved by his owners and they thought he would be with them for life.
As he was a rescue dog from Spain used for hunting, he will chase (even at his age he likes to run) so cannot be homed with cats/chickens etc.
Pip had a broken leg whilst he lived in Spain over 10 years ago, so only needs shortish walks these days and he is on medication (Metacam) to keep the pain to a minimum.
Pip is a loving dog, and he loves fuss and nothing better than to sit outside in the sun or curl up on a warm seat.
It would be best in a quiet home with retired adults, but loves everybody he meets and looks after the other dogs he lives with.
Pip would suit someone who is home and needs a companion and not someone who has cats.
Pip is friendly and loving and walks well on a lead. Small enough to be a lap dog! He is currently located at Waggy Tails Rescue in Bournemouth.
