Poodle Dogs Available for Adoption in Columbia, Maryland

This handsome boy is Pucci (51109), a 1 year old male standard poodle! Pucci is an active and engaging boy. He needs some time to settle into a new environment, but once he gets used to it, he's an active and curious boy. We've noticed that he's particularly sensitive around his ears and feet. Pucci will also need regular grooming to maintain his curly coat and help him feel his best.
