Please help Winnie by sharing this page! Winnie has found a short-term foster home, but she needs to move from there before October. Could you help Winnie? Old Dog of the Week is Winnie The Cavapoo (Cavalier x Poodle). She is 9 years old and is looking for a temporary foster home which meets her very specific needs. It must be within a 3-hour drive of her current foster home in Kent, be adult-only with no other pets and no visiting children , have a flat garden and people who can give her the TLC she needs. Fostering Winnie with a view to adopting her would be the ideal. Winnie came into Oldies Club care as her owner could no longer look after her. She's moved temporarily to Canterbury, Kent, but this foster home is only available until the beginning of October, so Winnie needs to find another foster home. To save her having to then move yet again, it would be ideal if her next foster home is with a view to adoption. She looks like butter wouldn't melt, but Winnie will resource guard certain items, sometimes unpredictably, and so she needs to be the only pet in a child-free home, so she doesn't have the worry of being on guard. Winnie is naturally friendly, playful, loving and biddable. She'll sit nicely and drop items when asked to. She loves fuss and praise! It's her physical challenges (hip dysplasia combined with tubbiness) which are limiting her at the moment and managing those in the right sort of home will help her be the sunny-natured lady she really is. Winnie when she first arrived in foster Winnie has already made huge progress. She's managed to lose over 1kg despite not being able to have proper walkies, just garden pottering. Hopefully she will continue to improve as she gets to her ideal weight, builds up those back leg muscles and her pain-management is perfected. She moves more easily now than when she first arrived but there's still a way to go and she's unlikely to ever need normal walks as such. In her original foster home, Winnie did some gentle pottering on her foster carer's farmland and she proved to be as good as gold around livestock of all shapes and sizes. Likewise, she's well-mannered with other dogs she meets as long as it's nowhere near her resource guarding triggers. She made good friends with the Labrador living next door. Winnie with chickens Winnie has a gorgeous soft coat but it grows like the blazes so she needs regular trips to the groomers and for the groomers to be careful of her ouchy hips. Her original foster carer described Winnie as an angel when her resource guarding triggers are avoided. These are any high-value food items/human food or her toys in the proximity of a perceived threat to them, like the resident dog in her original foster home. Winnie is a skilled forager, both for food and interesting toy-like things to play with. Her previous foster carer had to move her bin more than once and a little table which, now she's more agile, Winnie scrambled up onto to reach said bin. She is quite a character and loves fuss and praise so much, she's taken to bringing things to her foster carer as presents. Such a clever girl! Could you offer Winnie a child-free, dog-free, cat-free foster home, preferably with a view to adopting her? —————————— If you could offer Winnie a suitable foster home, within 3 hours of Canterbury, please contact us ASAP, as follows: Email: Oldies Club will arrange transport to the foster home and will cover the cost of any medical care Winnie need while she is in foster. You can read more about fostering for Oldies Club here . Although we are initially seeking a temporary foster home, we would be delighted to hear from anyone wanting to foster Winnie with a view to adopting her, but please only apply if your home is a match for her needs. —————————— This replaces Winnie's urgent appeal page dated 28 July 2026.
