Hi, my name is Ticker and I’m a 55-pound male 2-year-old Poodle who has lots of love to give!
I am gentle, laid back, and easy going guy who loves nose kisses! I do like to follow the kitty around but I don’t harm them. I love to play with other dogs but I need a dog who is both playful AND gentle/calm. Dogs that get "in my face" or constantly want to boss me around make me nervous. I came to Doodle Rock severely matted. Due to my super tight curls, I need my family to keep my coat short so I don’t have to experience that again. I’ll likely mat even with daily brushing. Foster mom says my hair is so soft and fuzzy that I don't need a long coat to show off my handsomeness!
My daily routine consists of waking up at 6 a.m. to potty and play for a bit before heading out for a morning walk. When I come back I’ve worked up an appetite for breakfast and let me tell you I really love food. I'm such a good boy about being in my crate but I would much rather be with you or playing with my fur siblings. I love to watch what you are doing and will always reach in for a chin scratch/head rub. After I eat my dinner I’ll snuggle with you or play after I’ve had my evening walk. I have no problem going in my crate but wouldn’t mind being next to you at bedtime.
I’m 100% leash and potty trained and use the doggie door pretty well. I’m still working on my slight timidness when it comes to rowdy noises, but rest assured I am a well-behaved boy. I have my basic commands down and do best with a fur sibling as well, as long as they are sweet and calm. I prefer to have my people at home with me because I do need them at all times.
Here’s what I’m looking for:
- Must have a dog sibling that is playful and calm
- Large fenced yard
-No children under 12 (I can be timid with loud noises)
- Stay-at-home or flexible schedule parent(s) who are home most of the day
