About Chani
Chani is a sweet, affectionate little Poodle who absolutely adores people. Before being rescued, he was kept in a raised cage and used for grooming practice and dog shows. Now, he’s ready to leave that life behind and find a family of his own.
Chani is definitely a people dog. He happily approaches both familiar people and strangers, leaning in for pets and affection. He’s comfortable with both men and women, enjoys being touched, and doesn’t mind being picked up or held. Being close to his humans is where he feels happiest.
With Other Dogs
Chani is friendly and polite when meeting other dogs, but he’s not particularly interested in playing with them. He tends to prefer dogs around his own size and may feel a little overwhelmed by dogs who are very energetic or persistent.
He’s not one to look for trouble — if another dog bothers him, Chani would much rather walk away and avoid the situation. Overall, if given the choice between hanging out with dogs or hanging out with people, he’ll choose his humans every time.
With Cats
Chani’s reaction to cats has not yet been tested. A cat test can be arranged if needed.
Energy & Walks
Chani has a moderate energy level. He enjoys his walks and outdoor time, and once he’s had a chance to get some exercise, he settles down nicely to rest.
He also does well with everyday distractions on walks. Passing people, other dogs, and unfamiliar sights such as someone carrying an umbrella don’t seem to bother him much.
At Home
Chani does not show food guarding toward people or other dogs, and he currently does most of his pottying outdoors.
Because Chani loves people so much and becomes very attached to them, being left alone may be one of the areas he’ll need some help with in his new home. He can bark or jump when separated from people and may whine when kenneled if he can see someone nearby.
As with many rescue dogs transitioning into a completely new environment, his adopter should be prepared for the possibility of separation anxiety and be willing to work on alone time gradually and patiently. We can’t know exactly how he’ll respond until he settles into his new home, so someone who can give him time to adjust would be the best fit.
The Home Chani Is Looking For
Chani would be happiest with someone who truly wants an affectionate companion and enjoys having their dog nearby. He has so much love to give and is just looking for a person or family he can finally call his own.
After spending part of his life in a cage, we’d love for Chani’s next chapter to be filled with walks, cozy naps, affection, and the security of knowing that he’s finally home.
