Description
Dog Breed: Papillon (long coat). Meet Torrey ❤️ Torrey is an 18-year-old Papillon who is looking for a very special forever home where she can enjoy her golden years in comfort and peace. Torrey is blind and has no teeth. She is not a cuddler and does not enjoy being picked up or fussed over. She is happiest sleeping peacefully on the floor and knowing her person is nearby. She would love a quiet, warm home where she can love you from afar while you respect her boundaries. Because of her age and temperament, Torrey would do best in a calm home without children and with someone who understands that senior dogs can have their own unique ways of showing affection. She doesn't need a lot—just patience, security, a soft place to sleep, and someone who will love her exactly as she is. ❤️ Location: Middlesex, NC and the surrounding RDU area We do not transport dogs. Adopters must be able to travel to meet and adopt Torrey. Adoption fee: $300 If you have room in your heart and home for a sweet senior girl who wants to spend her days peacefully and on her own terms, Torrey may be your perfect match. Sponsorship available, anything helps ❤️

Overview:
The enchanting Papillon, whose name translates to "butterfly" in French, truly lives up to its moniker with its distinctive, fringed ears that resemble delicate wings. Originating from European royalty and depicted in art as early as the 16th century, these elegant toy dogs were once known as Continental Toy Spaniels. Physically, they are small but sturdy, typically weighing between 5 to 10 pounds, with a long, silky coat that requires regular brushing to prevent tangles. Their temperament is a delightful blend of intelligence, playfulness, and affection, making them highly trainable and eager to please. Papillons are surprisingly energetic for their size, enjoying walks and mental stimulation, yet they are equally content to cuddle on a lap. They are generally well-suited for apartment living due to their compact size, and their friendly nature often makes them good companions for families with older, respectful children. While generally healthy, responsible breeders screen for potential issues such as patellar luxation and progressive retinal atrophy. Overall, the Papillon is a charming, adaptable companion that brings joy and elegance to any home.
