The caption which began with a plea for people planning to adopt a dog read: “This young doberman waiting is named Urphe. He is two and a half years old. Following the departure of his owner in EHPAD, Urphé was placed on a pension for a year before being bequeathed to the Brigitte Bardot Foundation and integrated into one of our shelters.”

Badort described the dog as “a very attentive dog, very close to human, very affectionate, very very playful. He needs to discover life because he has known only pension.

“It’s an SOS we pass today for Urphe,” she further wrote.

The actress breathed her last at the age of 91.

Bardot rose to fame in the 1950s and 1960s as a symbol of beauty, freedom, sexual revolution before retired from acting to focus on animal welfare.
