Russell - Poodle Dog for Adoption in Wausau, Wisconsin

I'M FREE! After 10 months in a small cage, I'm finally out and learning what it means to be a puppy. WOOHOO!

I'm Russell, and I'm ready to make up for lost time. I'm looking for an active, patient family with another dog to run and play with — bonus points for a fenced yard where I can really let loose.

I'm doing great with house training, and I'm working on my leash manners and getting comfortable in my crate. Now that I've discovered toys (and, okay, also magazines ), I'm all about chewing, playing, and exploring everything I missed out on.

I've got a lot of energy and I'm eager to learn — I just need you to help me burn it off with walks, runs, and plenty of stimulation.

Think we could be a match? Apply for me — I'm Russell, and I can't wait to meet you!
