Poppy Sue - Maltese Dog for Adoption in Orange, California

Poppy Sue Bio
Meet Poppy Sue
Poppy Sue is a sweet and affectionate 11-month-old Maltipoo who is expected to stay under 15 pounds fully grown. She has an incredibly soft coat, loves human affection, and is a total cuddle bug. She loves kids, does great with cats, and enjoys being close to her people.
She already has a wonderful training foundation. She is crate trained, pen trained, and pee-pad trained, and she walks nicely on a leash. She does well at the groomer, has shown no food resource guarding, and is spayed and up to date on her vaccinations.
She is playful and friendly with other dogs, although larger dogs can be intimidating for her. She prefers one-on-one play and tends to be more comfortable playing with another dog individually rather than being in a large group.
At home, she can be alert and will bark at sudden or unexpected noises. She is still young, so her new family will need to continue providing the structure, boundaries, and consistency she is accustomed to. Reinforcing her existing training and maintaining a consistent routine will be important as she adjusts to her new home.
Overall, Poppy Sue is a sweet, playful, cuddly little companion with lots of love to give. She would thrive with a family that will give her plenty of affection while continuing the structure and training that have helped her become such a lovely young dog. ❤ï ̧
