Whippet Rescue UK is helping to rehome “Francette” & “Doucette” – bonded pair of French Pedigree lady Whippets! We have been asked to help find homes for this very special pair of Whippets who are Mother & Daughter aged 11 and 8 years of age respectively. Francette & Doucette have been in Kennels in the Loire Valley region of France since April 2016, when their owner became unable to care for them due to ill health. Fully housetrained and good with other Dogs, they are very affectionate playful and lively little Whippets who thrive on human companionship. Unfortunately, Doucette, contracted Canine Leishmaniasis (Sand Fly Disease) when she was a Puppy. In order to prevent the Disease flaring up, it is essential that Doucette finds a home in an area that has a very mild climate. Francette & Doucette are fully inoculated, (including Rabies) and have been neutered. The Charity in France is prepared to contribute towards the cost of annual Blood Tests in order to monitor the Leishmaniasis. We understand that the cost of Doucette’s daily medication amounts to £3.00 per month. Whippets form very strong bonds and the Charity in France have been struggling to find Francette & Doucette a home where they can remain together. Applications should be forwarded by email to trustees@whippetrescueuk.org are restricted to residents of Northern France, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Luxembourg and The Netherlands only. Thanks very much to anybody who thinks they can help give a loving home to these two girls.
