Story

Looking for a home for our loved cream toy poodle. He is 3 years old. Born 12/7/2021. About 7-8lbs. He is a very intelligent and sweet dog however he has become increasingly aggressive towards children. He was rescued by us when he was hit by a car at 6 months old. He had a successful surgery and it does not affect him in any way. He was raised in my home with my children and is wonderful with my tween daughter but aggressive towards kids including my 10 year old son. He has nipped my niece and nephew. He has had training and is very easy to teach but this is one thing we have not been able to overcome. He is scheduled to be neutered in April. I was hoping it would help but can no longer risk my son’s safety while waiting to see. I love this dog, he is a Velcro dog and just wants to cuddle and sit with his person. Very affectionate. Does well with cats! He can be food aggressive when another animal goes near his bowl. Please consider giving our boy a home. He will steal your heart.

Story

Maggie was originally rescued by us, turning 3 in December 2024. She is up to date on vaccines, receives heartworm/flea/tick prevention regularly, and sees her vet routinely. No significant medical history. We adore Maggie- she is incredibly cuddly and loves to be loved. She can be playful and is trained well with walks and an unfenced yard. Unfortunately, Maggie does not get along with our senior dog since having our son. With another baby almost here, we cannot give Maggie the home and freedom she deserves. She is used to sleeping in our bed but being left in her crate when we are not home. Maggie obeys rules and is great with children.

People friendly ✅ is great with anyone even kids. Other pets: Beau is playful and friendly with bigger dogs but still may need to be the only one in the home. Possible meet and greet. Small dogs he doesn't seem to mind but not introduced enough to tell. Cats ❌ Car rides ✅ great in the car, loves the windows! Walks✅ a dream to walk, will stay right by your side. He loves to play and will require someone to be active with him daily. Great at fetch and bringing the ball back! Grooming/feeding✅✅ eats great, stays relaxed in the tub for a bath. Overall Beau is such a sweetheart. Is attentive and will follow you around. Very loyal and loving. Equal parts playful and relaxed. So, if you are in need of a walking buddy or someone to cuddle up and watch some holiday movies with Beau is the one. ❤️🐾
