Adopt Poppy

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 10 years

🌸 A GOLDEN HEART STILL WAITING 🌸 Poppy is a stunning 10-year-old German Shepherd with the softest eyes and the gentlest soul . Abandoned when she needed her people most, she has every reason to have given up — and yet, she still believes in love. Poppy is beautifully social with other dogs , wonderfully calm, and incredibly gentle . She has that peaceful presence that makes everything feel softer and safer just by being near her. She doesn’t demand attention — she simply offers quiet loyalty and steady affection. She isn’t asking for grand adventures. Just a cosy bed, kind words, and someone who will finally choose her and never let her go again. In return, Poppy will give you a love that is deep, grateful, and unwavering. Senior dogs like Poppy are so often overlooked, yet they make the most devoted companions. She deserves comfort, dignity, and a home where she can feel safe and cherished for the rest of her days. 💛 Could you be the one to give this adorable pup the home she deserves?

About Poppy

What life with Poppy looks like

Poppy is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Dali Dog Rescue UK in Dali.

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 Cyprus

Cypriot rescues focus heavily on cross-border placements (the island has more strays than local adopters). Animals are fully vetted before flying. The adopter pays the transport, while the shelter coordinates vaccinations, chipping, and the passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Poppy, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Poppy?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dali Dog Rescue UK handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Poppy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Poppy if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dali Dog Rescue UK 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Poppy 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 Poppy 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 Dali Dog Rescue UK early rather than rehoming privately; they know Poppy 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.
