Hi everyone, I'm Rudy!
I am a young 1 year old, Yorkie-Doodle (that's Yorkshire Terrier/Miniature Poodle cross for anyone who is wondering!). I may only weigh 12lbs, however, I command a mighty presence with my tall, lanky frame (well, picture a bull in a china shop lol). Energizer Bunny is a good nickname for me - I am always on the go, go, go! Chasing and retrieving toys is my thing. My personality is ALL terrier, so be prepared for a crazy, lovable fuzzball that bounces off the walls and will thrive with continued training and reinforcement of boundaries. I do guard my food and my toys, so a home with experience managing these behaviors is required. Walks you ask? Absolutely! I love to go for 1-2 mile walks every day - although binge watching Netflix movies after exercise time is a dream of mine (napping in your lap would be a plus). If you could please help me with my housetraining, I would appreciate that too! Perhaps a friendly dog sibling would be cool in my book, but I think cats would be a bit too tempting to chase. Teenagers in the home would even be something that I would entertain!
If you are looking for a pup like me, please contact Michelle at michelle.p@poainc.org (please complete an adoption application found at www.poainc.org)
