Description
Dog Breed: Poodle (Miniature) / Havanese. Meet Lafufu, the perfect city dog! At barely 7 pounds, this 3-year-old lady is so petite she could fit right in your purse. But don’t be fooled – she is an energetic, playful dog who loves to go on walks around town! Once you get to know her, Lafufu’s bright and cheerful demeanor is sure to steal your heart. She loves to play fetch with her beloved squeakies, after which she will happily fall asleep on your lap. She is friendly with both dogs and humans, though she may act shy in front of strangers for a moment or two. Lafufu was found in rough shape with matted fur that needed to be shaved off. She is looking for a forever home where she can get all the warm cuddles she deserves and her beautiful fur can come back to life! She is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines.

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.
