Hi, I’m Peanut! I’m an adorable 13 year old, 11 pound male Poodle  with a big heart, and I’m ready to find my forever home. My coat is a soft, beautiful chocolate brown color and I have gorgeous eyes! Since I’m a senior, I’ve already mastered a few important skills—I get along great with other dogs and I’m the perfect co-pilot for car rides. But my absolute favorite thing? Being close to my people. Whether it’s curling up on the couch, following you around the house, or sneaking in a few extra snuggles, I just love being near you!


I’m doing well with potty training but still have a few accidents here and there. I’m going out on regular potty walks but would do better in a fenced yard so I can take my time to find the perfect spot. I fuss a little when in my crate for the night, but I quiet down after a few minutes. (Of course, I’d rather be in bed with you.) I love a little treat and am very food-motivated. I’ve been pretty anxious adjusting to my new environment so I’m taking a little trazodone daily to help me stay calm. I have had ear infections in the past and you will need to clean my ears routinely and monitor them for any signs of returning infection. 

If you’re looking for a sweet, cuddly, and loyal little sidekick, I just might be the one for you! I’m neutered,up to date on my vaccines, had a dental, current on my preventatives and microchipped.  My adoption fee is $100.
