Can I be left alone?
Pippa has been left for a few hours in her previous home and she should be able to do this again after she’s settled in and had her training refreshed.
Do I have any medical conditions?
Pippa has a history of gall stones and pyoderma. She has a current medical condition, obesity and is on a diet plan to help with this, she has a liver abnormality and will need a dental, which will require consideration before this pet is rehomed. Our rehoming team will be able to give you further information if you apply to rehome them and you are a successful match.
We would also advise that any medical conditions, be that historic or ongoing, are discussed with your own vet prior to taking them home.
