Debbie is a 10-month-old, 13-pound Terrier/Poodle mix with a joyful personality that's impossible to resist. This happy little pup greets everyone she meets with a wagging tail and makes sure to "say hello" to every dog she spots on her walks! Friendly, outgoing, and full of life, Debbie is always ready to make a new friend.

When she's not making the neighborhood rounds, Debbie loves to play fetch and can happily entertain herself chasing after her favorite toys. She has all the fun, playful energy you'd expect from a puppy and would love an active family to share her adventures with.
