Poodle and Miniature Schnauzer Dogs Available for Adoption in Pleasanton, California

While Amy may technically be a senior, you’d never know it from her playful spirit and happy energy. She is approximately 7 years old and weighs 17 lbs. We believe she’s a Poodle mix—possibly with a bit of Schnauzer. When Amy first arrived at the shelter, her coat had to be shaved due to heavy matting, but it’s now growing back beautifully. She will need regular grooming to keep her coat looking it’s best.

Amy is a true sweetheart who loves everyone she meets. She gets along wonderfully with dogs of all sizes and enjoys playtime with her canine friends. She is fully house-trained, loves her daily walks, and walks very nicely on leash. Amy has already made lots of friends in the neighborhood!

Her ideal home would be one where someone is around most of the time to give her the love and companionship she thrives on.

If you’d like to give sweet Amy the forever home she deserves, please complete an application at 1luckydogrescue.org or reach out to Nancy at nancymoore016@gmail.com. When emailing, please tell us a little about the home you would offer Amy.
