Poodle Dogs Available for Adoption in Benld, Illinois

Speckles is a charming Poodle, born in November 2018, with a unique look and a personality to match. This sweet boy is ready to start a new chapter with a family who will give him the patience, love, and guidance he deserves. With proper introductions, Speckles could live happily with other dogs, cats, or children, making him a great potential fit for many households. As he adjusts to life in a new home, he will need help with potty training and learning to walk on a leash, but with consistency and encouragement he’s sure to gain confidence and catch on quickly. A fenced yard is preferred so Speckles can safely explore and enjoy some fresh air, though it isn’t required as long as he gets regular exercise and attention. Like most Poodles, he will also require routine grooming to keep his coat healthy, clean, and looking its best. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who’s ready to learn, grow, and share plenty of happy moments with his new family, Speckles could be the perfect addition to your home. Speckles has been neutered, microchipped, wormed, vaccinated including rabies, and tested negative for heartworms.

Note: To adopt, you must live within approximately 100 miles of one of our adoption sites (Benld or Springfield IL), and be at least 18 years of age.
