Mallard‘s Story

❤️Mallard is Available ❤️

My foster fam calls me O’Malley! I’m a 2-year-old, 50 lb male Doodle who spent my early life as an outdoor breeder dog. I had never lived inside or known the love of a family—until now. I’m incredibly sweet, affectionate, and loyal. My foster mom says I’m a total lovebug and will be heartbroken to see me go. I follow my people from room to room, always hoping for pets and attention. I sleep in my crate but would much rather snuggle up next to you in bed. ❤️

I wake up around 6–7 AM, head outside for a potty break, play with my dog friends, and eat breakfast. Then I lounge while my foster mom gets ready. I’m doing great on walks and working on not pulling when I see exciting things. I enjoy playing in the yard, chasing squirrels, and relaxing near my people. I eat dinner in the evening and usually wind down for bed by 9–10 PM. My favorite place is the lakehouse, where I love lying outside and watching the boats.

I’m still adjusting to indoor life—almost fully potty trained and learning what’s a toy and what’s not. Sometimes I carry things that smell like my humans for comfort. I’m a little unsure about going through front doors, but I’m great in the car and eager to keep learning!
