Description
Dog Breed: Poodle (Miniature) / Golden Retriever (long coat). *** PLEASE READ FULL BIO *** Meet Ridge! Breed: mini goldendoodle. Age: 1.5 years (est birthdate 7/2024) Weight: approx 30lbs. Training: crate trained, we are working on house and leash training. He will need continued training and guidance as he hasn't had many life experiences. Good with other dogs/cats? Yes, LOVES other dogs. In fact, he'd do best with another dog to teach him the ropes. Good with adults/kids? Yes, although he is shy/submissive at first. Personality: shy but curious. Playful. Reason for rescue: breeder release, retiring. Ridge spent the first year of his life in a kennel with little socialization. He has come so far, but will need a patient and understanding owner to help him become the wonderful companion we know he can be! He wants attention, but he is learning to accept it. He loves other dogs and we feel he needs another dog in his new home to show him how to be a companion! A fenced yard is best for Ridge as he learns how to walk on a leash. ANOTHER DOG IN THE HOME & A FENCED YARD IS REQUIRED. He is neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and current on vaccinations and preventatives. If interested in adding this sweet baby to your family, please message for an adoption application! Adoption fee: $350.

Overview:
The Miniature Poodle, a charming and intelligent companion, originated in Germany as a water retriever before being refined in France. They are renowned for their elegant appearance, characterized by a distinctive curly coat (often requiring regular grooming to prevent matting), long muzzle, and expressive dark eyes. Standing typically between 10 to 15 inches tall and weighing 10 to 15 pounds, they are a compact yet sturdy breed. Temperamentally, Miniature Poodles are known for their high intelligence, making them highly trainable and eager to please. They are generally lively, affectionate, and can be quite playful, thriving on interaction with their families. Their adaptable nature makes them well-suited for apartment living, provided they receive adequate daily exercise and mental stimulation. They are often excellent with children and other pets when properly socialized. While generally healthy, potential owners should be aware of breed-specific concerns such as progressive retinal atrophy, luxating patella, and Addison's disease. With their captivating looks and bright minds, the Miniature Poodle makes a delightful and devoted family member.
