Shasta - Poodle Dog Available for Adoption in Elmwood Park, Wisconsin

Shasta is very playful and fun! He loves both his siblings and his foster siblings and is even with good with the household cats! Shasta is great with people and especially loves his toys, soft round pillow beds, food, treats, running and rolling in the yard!

He will immediately settle down in your lap if you pick him up. He is overall a pretty quiet pup - makes usual puppy sounds while playing, but not really a barker. He also loves his naps, lap time, pets and tummy rubs, and is comfortable in his crate. Sleeps all night and is excited to see us in the morning. He is working on potty training, but pretty good about using the pads. The vet thinks he might grow to be about 60-70 lbs

All puppies are in foster care and are not located in our office. Since all of our puppies are held in private foster homes, we look to have an approved application prior to sending someone to a private residence. If you are interested in adoption, please complete an application. Online applications are located on our H.O.P.E website @ www.hopesafehouse.org.

Upon approval of your application, we will contact you with the foster home phone number to arrange a meet and greet. There is no cost or obligation to apply.

You will be required to leave a $100.00 deposit for training at time of adoption. This deposit is 100% refundable after completing the basic obedience class.
