Dash - Miniature Poodle Dog for Adoption in Fort Wayne, Indiana

Meet Dash!

Dash is a sweet Mini Poodle mix who came to us from a recent hoarding case, and this little guy is ready to discover that life is about more than just surviving-it's about being loved, spoiled, and having your own cozy bed!

Dash is **more skittish and cautious**, so he may need some extra time to feel comfortable in new situations. He's not exactly the "HEY EVERYBODY, LOOK AT ME!" type. He's more of a "I'll observe from over here until I decide you're trustworthy" kind of guy. But with patience, kindness, and plenty of reassurance, Dash can start to let his sweet personality shine.

Dash is also a **flight risk**, so his new family will need to be extra careful with doors, gates, and transitions while he settles in. Keeping him safe while he builds confidence will be incredibly important.

And, of course, as a Mini Poodle mix, Dash will need **regular grooming** to keep his coat healthy and comfortable. Basically, he's a tiny fluffy cloud with a standing appointment at the salon!

Dash may take a little time to come out of his shell, but the love and trust he gives in return will make every step worth it. He's looking for a patient family who will let him go at his own pace and show him just how wonderful life can be.
