Golden Retriever and Poodle Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Wildon (A567662) Wildon arrived as a stray absolutely terrified of the world around him, and truthfully, he is still learning that people can be kind. He is the type of dog that needs patience, slow movements, and someone willing to let him open up at his own pace. If you give him that chance, Wildon rewards you with something really special. Once he begins to trust you, his sweet and loving personality starts to shine through. He wants to connect, he just needs someone gentle enough to help him feel safe first. Dogs like Wildon can be easy to overlook in a shelter setting because they are scared, but underneath all that fear is a good dog simply trying his best. Wildon appears to be a Golden Retriever/Poodle mix, which means his beautiful coat will require regular upkeep. His future family will need to commit to frequent brushing and grooming to prevent painful mats and keep him comfortable and healthy. He has not yet been tested with other dogs. You are welcome to bring your own dog for a meet and greet with him. Wildon may not be the kind of dog who runs up to greet strangers right away, but for the person willing to move slowly and earn his trust, he has the potential to become an incredibly loyal companion. Wildon is estimated to be around 2 years old and weighs 40 pounds. All animals adopted from Huntsville Animal Services are microchipped, appropriately vaccinated, spayed/neutered and given a 30 day flea/tick preventative. Ready to meet Wildon? Stop by 4950 Triana Blvd SW in Huntsville, Alabama. No appointment is necessary to meet our available animals. All adopters must be 19 years or older and be able to provide a valid ID. See less
