My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Sonny ☀️🐾
5 months old • Male • Cockapoo

Sonny is a sweet, snuggly cockapoo puppy with a bright spirit and a heart full of love. At just 5 months old, he’s still very much a baby—curious, affectionate, and soaking up everything the world has to offer. He’s the kind of pup who wants to be close to his people and will happily trade kisses for cuddles.

Sonny does have a seizure disorder, and he will need lifelong medication given three times a day to help manage it. With a consistent routine and a committed adopter, many dogs like Sonny go on to live happy, fulfilling lives—and Sonny is ready to do just that with the right family.

Why Sonny is special:

Adorable, loving puppy personality

Cockapoo charm times ten

Looking for a dedicated home that can stick to his medication schedule

Good to know:
🐾 We can dog-test and cat-test Sonny upon request—just ask!
🏷️ If an attribute tag isn’t listed, it doesn’t mean he doesn’t have that trait—it just means we haven’t seen or confirmed it yet.

Sonny is searching for someone who can see past his medical needs and focus on the wonderful little dog he is. In return, he promises endless love and puppy devotion. 💛
