Standard Poodle with a sweet, affectionate personality and a big heart for people. He has done wonderfully with both men and women and has been polite and well-mannered around the children he has met, though his exposure to kids has been limited. His history with cats is unknown. Hank is fully potty trained, sleeps quietly through the night, and has done well being left home alone for a few hours at a time. He walks nicely on leash, rides calmly in the car, and knows basic commands like sit and down. Like many Standard Poodles, Hank is intelligent and thrives with both physical exercise and mental enrichment. He currently does well with three daily walks and activities such as training sessions, sniffing games, and puzzle-solving. After his exercise and enrichment, he's happy to relax and spend time with his people. Hank is very human-oriented and loves affection… he’s happiest when he's near his family and getting plenty of pets. Because Hank was recovering from kennel cough when he entered foster care, his interactions with other dogs have been somewhat limited. However, he has shown friendly interest in dogs on walks and has not displayed reactivity, barking, or lunging. As a Standard Poodle, Hank will require regular coat maintenance. His coat was clipped short by the shelter, but adopters should be prepared for routine brushing and grooming to keep him looking and feeling his best. Hank previously suffered a fractured leg before entering rescue. Follow-up X-rays confirmed that the injury is fully healed and not causing him any pain or limitations. If you're looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who wants to be involved in every part of your day, Hank may be your perfect match! For additional photos, videos, and updates from Hank's foster home, check out his Instagram: temporarytailssd. He is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on all his vaccines. His adoption fee is $300. All Second Chance Dog Rescue dogs are spayed/neutered, are up to date on vaccines and have microchips prior to adoption. Adoption fees vary depending on age of dog. Fees help Second Chance Dog Rescue cover spay/neuter costs, vaccinations, medical treatments, food and supplies. Please go to .secondchancedogrescue and complete an application today! All dogs live in private foster homes until they are adopted.

Overview:
The Standard Poodle is a captivating and highly intelligent breed with a rich history, believed to have originated in Germany as a water retriever before being refined in France. Renowned for their distinctive, dense, and curly coat—which is virtually non-shedding, making them a great choice for allergy sufferers—they are elegant and athletic dogs. Physically, they possess a proud carriage, a long muzzle, and dark, expressive eyes, typically weighing between 45-70 pounds. Their temperament is characterized by being highly intelligent, easily trainable, and generally good-natured, though they require mental stimulation to prevent boredom. Standard Poodles are surprisingly adaptable, thriving in active families and even adapting well to apartment living provided they receive adequate exercise and mental engagement. While generally healthy, owners should be aware of potential health concerns like hip dysplasia, bloat, and eye conditions. Their combination of brains, beauty, and biddability makes them a truly versatile and rewarding companion.
