About Obie Dandy

Adoption Fee: $600
Poodle
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Male

He is three years old, I have had him for two years, a rescue. (I have rescued standard poodles for over 30 years, and have had at least 100 stray dogs of all types to arrive on my front porch. My dogs live into their 20's.) He's spent all of that time outdoors, he's had a fenced in 1 acre backyard, here, with two other dogs to play with. He would do well to be adopted by a family with a similar situation. (Outdoor dog house and dog companion already in place.) He is kind and respectful of the 18-year-old standard poodle. He is a compulsive chewer. He's hard to capture. He was crated by the previous owner 16 hours/day due to his chewing, which makes him suspicious of people approaching him. Once the lead is on his collar, though, he's submissive. He will stand still for grooming. He is a good guard dog, patrolling the backyard regularly. He has never bitten, is not aggressive, and has never tried to leave the yard. What he needs is a household with children to play with him regularly. He could use some socializing so he can develop trust. He has been on a raw meat/raw vegetable diet and is not a picky eater. It is recommended that he go to a foster situation, rather than a shelter, where he would be confined in a small space. I am a busy, busy, very busy senior, and he needs more attention than I can offer now. He will be a beautiful addition to the right family.
