About Keller

Keller is a gentle 7-year-old Toy Poodle mix who spent most of his early life in a crate, so the outside world still feels new to him. He’s shy at first, but behind those timid eyes is an affectionate and sweet little companion who wants nothing more than to stay close and soak up attention. Keller thrives in calm, patient homes—think quiet apartments or with older adults who appreciate a slower pace. He’s house trained and crate trained, happy to curl up by your side or tag along behind you like a loyal shadow. Keller recently had the majority of his teeth removed due to dental neglect, so he’ll need a soft food diet from now on. He does well with gentle dogs, and his kind, sensitive nature blossoms in environments where he feels safe. Whether he joins a mellow canine friend or enjoys life as a solo pet, Keller is searching for a loving spot where he can truly relax and be cherished. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
