Poodle and Maltese Dogs Available for Adoption in Fall River, Massachusetts

Meet Sundae!

Sundae is basically a plant disguised as a 17.5lb poodle mix. She is happiest outside in the sunshine, photosynthesizing and increasing that serotonin production.

Sundae is about 6.5 years old and she's a pretty mid-energy kinda gal. She can get the zoomies just like any dog but, for the most part, you're not going to find her running laps or bouncing off the walls. She even has the tendency to lag behind you on a walk - she does NOT want to walk ahead of you or even keep pace with you. She would much rather dawdle and dillydally.

She's a little bit on the shy side at first but once she gives you a thorough investigation (which needs to happen on HER terms and HER terms only), she wants to be involved in everything you're doing. She's nosy and has a major case of FOMO.

She does well with other dogs and previously lived with multiple dogs of various sizes. She has a healthy fear of cats so dog-friendly cats shouldn't be a problem. We would prefer older kids (12+) because we don't know if she's ever been around small kids and she has a tendency to be a nervous nelly at first before she decides she's actually a social butterfly.

She WILL require regular grooming and daily brushing/coat maintenance in between grooms.
