I saw this on a page of replies to the article so hope it's true.


I gather a lady in France is now fostering her until a home can be found.. so at least she will not be put to sleep as originally feared..

Maybe they should contact Paul O'Grady, he is a sucker for a sob story about dogs and takes them in doesn't he?

The French rehoming methods are different to ours, If they owners can't be found then they do put dogs down .the older ones first to make room for more strays
quote
Poppy was just found wandering the streets in Toulouse. She's quite an old dog and, although she was taken into a rescue centre, they have so many dogs there that they tend to put the older ones down first.

"Poppy could be put down in three weeks. She's on Death Row at the moment. If no-one comes forward she will be put down."

If the owner's last address is known, perhaps a neighbour would know where the family are,

Poppy, a black Patterdale terrier cross, was microchipped in Bristol but has ended up alone on the streets of Toulouse.

She will be put down unless her owners are found.

In 2002 Poppy was registered as belonging to the Barton family of Park Road, Bristol, but so far all inquiries to find them have come to a dead end.
