Gigi (Cockapoo) Temporary Stay

TEMPORARY STAY REQUIRED

This is Gigi a 3 year old Cockapoo, she is unbelievable friendly and a perfect companion. My partner and I moved to Spain for a year and Gigi stayed with her dog minder who loved her.

Gigi has been there since August and is starting to show signs of stress due to there being around too many dogs all the time. She has never caused an issue or been aggressive ever. However in the last 2 weeks she has started to become competitive with dogs over her new owner (the dog minder).

We feel it would be best for Gigi to find a temporary home until August 2025 when we return to Dublin.

Gigi is available to go to a fitting family on any date up to around Easter time. The perfect family for her would have lots of time to spend with her as she is a peoples person and needs plenty of attention.
