Meet Anduin — a 4‑year‑old, 52 lb Poodle mix with a heart as big as his fluffy smile. Quick Facts: Name: Anduin Breed: Poodle Mix Age: 4 years old Weight: 52 lbs. House-Trained: Yes Crate-Trained: Yes Good with Dogs: Yes Good with Cats: Not yet tested Good with Kids: Yes Energy Level: Medium Fence Required: Yes About Anduin’s Breed: Our best guess is that Anduin is a Poodle mixed breed. Poodles are known for their intelligence, elegance, and affectionate nature, making them one of the most versatile and people‑oriented breeds. They’re quick learners with a playful streak, and they thrive on mental stimulation, gentle structure, and being included in family life. Their loyal, sensitive personalities mean they bond deeply with their humans and enjoy being part of daily routines. An ideal home for a Poodle is one that offers consistent engagement, companionship, and opportunities for exercise and enrichment. They do best with families who appreciate their bright minds and can provide both physical activity and mental challenges. Because they’re so people‑focused, they flourish in homes where they aren’t left alone for long periods and where their affectionate, eager‑to‑please nature can shine. What to Love about Anduin: Anduin is a friendly, affectionate boy and the exact definition of an amazing family dog! He’s already potty trained, crate trained, and loves absolutely everyone he meets. A true social butterfly, Anduin is happiest when he’s surrounded by people or playing with other dogs! With a perfect medium energy level, Anduin is an easygoing companion who enjoys both playtime and relaxing with his humans. He adores belly rubs, scratches, and any kind of attention you’re willing to give. He gets excited for walks and may pull a bit because the world is just so interesting, but he’s learning better leash manners every day! A fenced yard is a must, as he loves to romp and play safely outdoors. He hasn’t been cat tested yet, but he’s been wonderful with other dogs and would fit in well with a canine sibling. Anduin recently came into rescue with a laceration on his neck that’s been stitched up and is healing nicely, and through it all, he’s remained sweet, gentle, and full of love. Whether you’re an active family, a laid‑back household, or a first‑time dog owner, Anduin is the kind of dog who fits right in and makes every day brighter!
