Hi, I'm Jimmy! I'm an 42-lb Poodle blend and I'm 8 years old. I'm just your average goofy, playful, cuddly, kid-friendly, adventurous guy except that I'm still looking for a family who will love me forever. Favorite Things: Jimmy is a very playful and affectionate dog who loves being around people, especially kids. He is extremely toy-motivated and can't get enough of them—his favorites are fetch and tug-of-war! Training & Manners: Jimmy is a gentleman! He is very food-motivated and eager to please, which has made training easy so far. He already knows basic commands like “sit” and “paw” and will happily perform them for treats. He is housetrained and will let you know when he needs to go out. He loves car rides and is a great passenger. He enjoys going on walks and does well overall but would benefit from a bit more leash practice as he continues to learn. He is also a bit messy when it comes to drinking water from his bowl. Health & Care: Jimmy is neutered, heartworm negative, up-to-date on vaccinations, and microchipped. He'll just need monthly flea and heartworm preventatives, like any dog. He is a Doodle, so regular grooming is a must for him. His coat needs brushing several times a week to prevent matting, and he'll need professional grooming about every 6–8 weeks. Luckily, he loves having his hair brushed and being the center of attention! Other Animals: Jimmy is good with other large dogs. He hasn't been observed around cats yet, but his foster doesn't think they'd get along. Children: Jimmy loves children of all ages! Ideal Home: Due to his playful energy levels, Jimmy needs a single-family home with a securely fenced yard. Overall: Jimmy is a happy, loving, and fun companion who will thrive in a home that can continue his training and give him plenty of playtime and attention. Has playful Jimmy jumped into your heart?
