Saffron's Journey Home

Saffron (formerly Autumn) was sadly found living on the streets of Serbia and was taken to a shelter in December 2024. It is believed she may have been abandoned, which is sadly a common story for gundog types who are no longer wanted for hunting or breeding.

She has a docked tail, which we believe was done by the people who abandoned her. Due to the UK ban on tail docking, she would not have been able to travel directly to the UK. Because there is currently no exemption for charities, she first had to come into foster care here before becoming available for adoption.

Saffron spent several months in UK foster care, where she received lots of cuddles and long walks, and began getting used to life in a home environment. 

She has now found her forever home and has a big brother named Harrison, another Brittany Spaniel. Saffy is settling in beautifully, enjoying her new toys, countryside walks and dedicated training time. Her mum is a Nordic Walker, so she is having lots of adventures outdoors, while her dad is happily taking on the job of spoiling her with treats! Saffron has become a much-loved member of the family and we couldn’t be happier for her.
