In 2014, Patsy’s photo appeared in an ad on Leboncoin. While he had always known family life, the senior dog found himself orphaned after the death of his favorite human. Considering him unadoptable because of his disability, some relatives of the deceased considered euthanasia. Opposed to this drastic solution, one of the girls decided to use the power of the internet to find her a loving new home. „Time passes and death comes“, as the saying goes. The Grim Reaper not only breaks the hearts of humans, but also those of their furry friends.
A few years ago, a Little Lion Dog named Patsy experienced the bitter goodbye of her adoptive who, due to her advanced age, ended up letting go and following the lady in black. Orphaned at 9 years old, the canine almost knew the big dive in turn. Since he was old and legless, his family members thought it best to euthanize him. Fortunately, one of the daughters of the deceased wanted to give him the chance to start a new life in another house. This is how Leboncoin welcomed a new advertisement, in which Patsy appears. Last hope for this little being, who has experienced difficult trials throughout his life… Car accident in his early youth, disability, bereavement: Patsy was able to get up and move forward. To the greatest relief of the animal, the message caught the attention of Maxime Boutier’s ex-girlfriend. „She wanted a dog, I didn’t“, explained the latter to the editorial staff of Woopets, „she showed me the ad and, finally, we went to get it. I cracked the first time I saw him.” That day, Patsy had just met the one who will accompany her until her last breath. Despite his 3 legs and graying hair, he won the heart of a man who feared expanding the family by adopting a dog. It was a new start in life. Patsy also met Amber and Heden, the 2 house cats he likes to snuggle up to at nap time. With the lethal injection hovering over his head like a sword of Damocles, the furball now enjoys walks, cuddles and games with loved ones. that I know ; he is so cute.”
The years have passed to form a procession of thousands of memories. Today, Patsy celebrated her 18th birthday, always with this enthusiasm, this communicative joie de vivre that overflows from her being.
What does his “father” admire the most about him? “His courage and strength of character. In October 2021, he was suffering from hepatitis. The vet told me it was unlikely he would survive…” he said. And even! His 3-legged companion is still standing. Almost blind and deaf, he is always bursting with energy. The “Little Lion Dog” is aptly named…
