Story

Fuzzy is a 1 yr old Poodle mix who was abandoned by his family and spent several weeks outside fending for himself. He is a shy boy with new people and is definitely afraid of men. He is very gentle and will do best in a quiet home. He must have an escape-proof SECURE FENCED IN YARD in his new home.. No exceptions, NO UNDERGROUND FENCING- and we will check the yard before adoption. We are not looking for a senior adopter for this young dog and he would probably be best with older children or adults.
