Popsicle

Female · Adult · 7 years

At 6 years old, Popsicle is a wonderfully settled girl with a great home history behind her. She's fully housetrained, a relaxed and happy passenger in the car, and comfortable being left alone for a few hours while you're out. Popsicle has exquisite taste, she's a self-declared connoisseur of the finer things, and nothing lights her up quite like a high-value treat (cheese is her weakness!). Out on walks, Popsicle is an absolute joy, beautifully behaved on lead and friendly with every dog she meets. Once she's settled in and comfortable, her playful side comes out: the zoomies make an appearance, and she's currently learning the art of tug. She's a bright girl who knows her commands well and is always delighted to show them off for a tasty reward. She's not a clingy dog, but she does love a good back scratch or belly rub, and her whole face lights up when her favourite people walk through the door. Popsicle is looking for a home that appreciates a dog with her own quiet confidence, someone who'll let her set the pace, spoil her a little, and give her the settled, comfortable life she so clearly deserves. Popsicle is a beautiful Dogue de Bordeaux who is ready to swap foster life for a home of her own. She's an independent, self-assured lady who knows exactly what she wants, and what she wants is to be the only dog in an adult-only household where she can be everyone's number one.

About Popsicle

What life with Popsicle looks like

Popsicle is a adult dog waiting at Dogs Trust Evesham in Evesham.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇬🇧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 Popsicle, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Popsicle?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dogs Trust Evesham handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Popsicle on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Popsicle if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dogs Trust Evesham 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 Popsicle 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 Popsicle 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 Dogs Trust Evesham early rather than rehoming privately; they know Popsicle 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.
