Ever wondered what it's like to have a purebred Standard Poodle? Congratulations - the universe has delivered one to you through a little chaos and a very good Samaritan.

Duke was found running as a stray and rescued by a kind Good Samaritan just in time. He was extremely overgrown - so fluffy he looked less like a dog and more like a sheep who missed several grooming appointments. Things were not safe for him out there (someone even threatened to shoot him ), but Duke is now safe and officially entering his glow-up era.

Despite his rough start and current "before" look, Duke is a certified good boy. He was calm, patient, and polite during grooming - no drama, no complaints, just good vibes. He's under 5 years old, about 50 pounds, and has that classic poodle intelligence paired with a surprisingly chill personality.

Duke is great with all people, shows no negative reactions to other dogs, and handles new situations like a pro. He will be neutered and fully vaccinated prior to placement. His curls may be a little ruff right now, but trust us - the glow-up is coming.

If you're ready for a smart, friendly, purebred Standard Poodle who is about to turn into an absolute showstopper, Duke is your guy.
