Ladies and Gentlemen, let’s give a warm welcome to Archie! 🎉 This charming young standard poodle is a ray of sunshine, rescued from a commercial breeding kennel, and just bursting with potential. At nearly 5 years old, with a birthday on March 26, 2021 (hello, Aries energy! Let’s talk about that fiery spirit), Archie weighs about 35 lbs, which makes him the perfect little bundle of fluff for anyone seeking a companion who’s on the smaller side of the standard poodle spectrum. ☀️ Now, let me tell you, Archie is a sweetheart, but he’s still figuring out this big world. He’s in the midst of learning the ins and outs of housebreaking. 🌨️ With the chilly winter temperatures, it’s been a bit of a challenge, but fear not! He’s made progress since being neutered, and those early marking days are behind him. We appreciate those small wins, don’t we? Archie is good with the other dogs in his foster home, and while he hasn’t made close buddies with the resident cats just yet, they seem to appreciate his gentle soul from a distance! He has a heart of gold and desperately wants to trust people, slowly building up his courage each day. He loves to play with toys, albeit he sometimes prefers to keep them all to himself! 🎾❤️ Here’s the scoop, folks: Archie would do best in a home with children aged 10 and older, as patience is key for him to find his groove. 🕊️ His new family will need to take a minimal moderate approach to his training, allowing him time to shine without pressure. He’s getting the hang of things and seeks a loving environment where he can flourish – ideally, one without fenced yards, as he’ll need a leash for those lovely strolls! 🚶‍♂️ Archie is now neutered, up to date with vaccines, and microchipped, ready for a forever home. Are you ready to bring this gentle spirit into your life? 💖 For those interested in adopting our lovely Archie, please make sure to *apply through the Buddy App!* Now, let’s spread some love and give Archie the chance he deserves! 🐾
