Paddy – 2 year old Patterpoo – ADOPTED

Paddy is a stunning Patterpoo (Patterdale x Poodle) who is now ready to be reserved.

He is very energetic boy and will need an active household where he will get plenty of stimulation as well as being the only dog. He has not been socialised with other animals and although has shown no signs of aggression, combined with his breed, we feel that it would not be suitable for him to share a home with any pets. Children in the house will also need to be 8 years +

He is a super friendly boy, good on the lead and enjoys getting his nose into everything along the way.

He has not lived in a house before so house training will need to start from scratch; advice on this will be given.

Dog Adoption FAQs

  1. Can I come and visit the dogs? We don’t have a ‘walk around’ centre so you will need to call or email us to let us know which dog you are interested in. Find the contact details for adoption on the right of this page.
  2. I’ve seen the dog I want, what next? Have a read of our adoption process for useful information and to make sure adopting a branch animal is right for you. Then get in touch to arrange to meet the dog you are interested in
  3. What is the adoption fee? The cost for adoption is from £275 for adult dogs and from £450 for puppies under 12 months of age, see the table above for what this includes.
  4. Where do you keep the dogs in branch care? Some dogs are fostered in various homes around Tameside and Glossop and others are in private boarding kennels.
  5. Can I make a financial donation to help branch dogs? Yes, you can donate directly to the branch by cheque or postal order, please send an email and we will gladly send you the correct address to send this type of donation to, or by cash at one of our collection days.

Good to know…

The branch will not rehome dogs to households where other resident dogs have not been neutered or are not up to date with vaccinations unless there are veterinary reasons for this.

We will not rehome RSPCA dogs as guard dogs, thieves these days won’t hesitate to hurt a dog – please get a good burglar alarm instead.

We will not allow our dogs to go to homes where they will live outside, as there is nothing so upsetting than to see a dog without human interaction, spending their days on the end of a chain or in a lonely kennel.

Unfortunately the branch cannot accept Bull breeds and their crosses directly from members of the public, only via RSPCA inspectors.
