Miniature Poodle Dogs Available for Adoption in Marana, Arizona

Meet Missy: A Tiny Companion with a Big Heart!! At just 10 pounds, Missy is a petite bundle of sweetness wrapped in soft curls, with a charming mix of poodle smarts and Chihuahua spirit. At 11 years young, she's mastered the art of gentle companionship and is ready to spend her golden years by someone's side.

Missy is the definition of a devoted, easygoing friend. She loves being near her person-quietly keeping you company whether you're reading, watching TV, or enjoying a peaceful afternoon-but she's never demanding or clingy. Think of her as your soft shadow, always nearby and full of quiet affection. A self-proclaimed couch potato, Missy enjoys the simple pleasures in life: a cozy spot to nap, a patch of warm sunshine to bask in, and a leisurely morning stroll. She walks nicely on leash, taking her time due to mild arthritis and a tricky knee, but she still appreciates getting out to sniff the world. Missy does have a luxating patella on one knee (not uncommon for small breeds her age)

At home, Missy is well-mannered and housetrained, especially when she feels secure. She knows how to use a doggie door, though her people keep it closed when they're away to ensure her safety. She thrives in a calm, predictable environment and would do best with someone who is home most of the time-she truly prefers companionship over solitude. She gets along well with one or two calm senior dogs but isn't a fan of cats or the unpredictable energy of children, which can make her nervous. She may be a little shy when you first meet her, but give her a little patience, a gentle voice, and maybe a few kisses, and you'll see her blossom into a loving, loyal companion. If you're looking for a sweet, low-key friend to share your days and your couch, this lady might just be your perfect match.
