Meet Bud, a 2 year old miniature poodle mix with a big personality packed into a small body. He’s the kind of dog who instantly makes himself at home — especially if there’s a cozy spot on the couch beside you. Bud is outgoing, playful, affectionate, and happiest when he’s curled up in your lap soaking up attention.

Bud is fully housebroken, crate trained for up to four hours, and is neutered, vaccinated, and up to date on all preventions. He has a wonderful balance of energy — playful enough to enjoy adventures and games, but calm enough to settle in nicely at home for cuddle time afterward.

One of Bud’s sweetest qualities is how polite he is with other dogs. He plays beautifully and reads other dogs’ cues very well. He has especially enjoyed spending time with his foster’s Australian Shepherd and has shown himself to be a respectful and social companion. While he may get excited and pull a bit on leash when he spots another dog, he’s very redirectable and eager to learn, making continued leash training very manageable.

Bud has also done wonderfully around children, showing a gentle and friendly nature with them. He appears to be mostly cat friendly as well, though he may occasionally get playful and give chase, so slow introductions and supervision are recommended.

Like many young dogs, Bud is still building confidence with car rides and can get a little anxious during them. With patience and positive experiences, he’s already making progress. His loving personality and willingness to connect with people make him such a rewarding little companion.

Bud’s ideal home is simply one that loves small dogs and wants a loyal best friend to share the couch, daily walks, and lots of affection. If you’re looking for a sweet, cuddly companion with a playful spirit and a loving heart, Bud may be your perfect match.

Bud is currently being fostered in Houston, Texas but can be transported out of state to an approved adopter.


Listed BREED and AGE - We are taking our best guess & recommendations from our veterinarian on age, breed and size when fully grown. We rarely know a dog's exact age nor are we able to tell the true or full breed mix of dogs as our information is limited most of the time. ***
