About Tyson

Tyson is a striking black Standard Poodle with energy to burn and a real taste for adventure. He loves to run, play, and explore, and he's always up for something new—though new situations and leash walks can make him a bit nervous at first. His intelligence shines, but it also means he needs regular training and structure to feel his best and build confidence. Tyson’s previous life was that of a solo dog, though he did well at doggy daycare, so canine siblings are a real possibility. With cats, his history is unknown. A curly-coated poodle like Tyson requires lifelong grooming, so the right adopter will have a grooming plan from day one. Training will go a long way not only in sharpening his skills but in deepening the bond he creates with his people. Tyson is about three years old and thrives in a home that values both his looks and his quick mind. Applicants will need to live within 50 miles of Edgewood, MD, and complete a home visit as part of the adoption process. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
