Dulce - Poodle and Maltese Dog for Adoption in Santa Rosa, California

Dulce is an adorable 8-month-old Poodle mix who came to us from a heartbreaking hoarding situation where many small dogs were living together. He had been neglected, was filthy, covered in large, painful mats, and absolutely terrified.

Thanks to the patience and gentle care of our amazing groomer, Dulce enjoyed a much-needed spa day. His heavy mats were carefully removed, revealing the handsome little pup underneath. Just look at his incredible transformation! Dulce is very shy and is still learning that people can be kind, gentle, and loving. He will need a patient, understanding family willing to give him the time and reassurance he needs to feel safe and build confidence. Behind that shy exterior is a sweet young pup just waiting for the chance to blossom. Dulce deserves a loving home where he will always feel safe, cherished, and cared for. Could you be the one to give this sweet boy the love, patience, and happily ever after he deserves?
