Peppy

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 10 years

Please help Peppy by sharing this page! Peppy is a 10-year-old Patterdale Cross (12kg) in the care of Dogs Trust Shoreham in West Sussex. He's looking for permanent or foster home with grown-ups only and no other pets at home. He doesn't want to have to share the fuss! Peppy is a fun, busy, cheerful boy who loves the outdoors. He likes going for walks with dog friends. Not all other dogs meet his standards but he's getting more relaxed about meeting new ones with practice. He's easy to train, with treats, as he's very clever and likes to please his people. Peppy loves human company and wants a home where someone will be with him most of the time. He's affectionate and likes a snuggle on the sofa but he does like his own space when snoozing in his bed or if he's in the middle of something. Peppy wants a secure garden for snuffling and pottering. He loves playing with his toys! He also enjoys food-based puzzles and learning new tricks. As you can tell from his photos he's a very attentive little dog who will make someone the perfect best friend. If you might have the perfect permanent/foster home for sweet Peppy, please contact Dogs Trust Shoreham as follows: Read about their Adoption Process and Apply here , or Email: Please say you saw Peppy on the Oldies Club website. This replaces Peppy's original page dated 13 February 2025.

About Peppy

What life with Peppy looks like

Peppy is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at The Oldies Club in United Kingdom.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Peppy, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Peppy?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. The Oldies Club handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Peppy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Peppy if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — The Oldies Club will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Peppy already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Peppy isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with The Oldies Club early rather than rehoming privately; they know Peppy and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
