About Puddin Gentle & Loyal

Puddin is a gentle, affectionate older lady eager to bring some warmth into your life. She’s calm and loves going for slow, quiet strolls around the neighborhood—walking on a leash is second nature for her.

Puddin would shine as a devoted companion, especially for someone looking for a calm presence at home. While she gets along with other dogs, she thrives when she’s the center of attention in her own space. She’s loyal, well-behaved, gentle, and particularly loves to cuddle. Daily short walks and a bit of toy play keep her content. If you’re searching for a steady friend who just wants someone close by, Puddin is waiting in Rootstown, OH.
