About Barbie.

Barbie is a small poodle, either toy or miniature, with a soft grey and white coat and a medium length. She comes from a breeder background and recently stepped into the next phase of her life as a laid-back home companion. Barbie's temperament is calm and unhurried—she prefers couch time and TV over bounding around with zoomies. She can be a little reserved at first meet, but she warms up quickly and is easy to guide on leash. Lap time is her favorite, and she’ll happily settle in beside you for hours. Barbie gets along nicely with cats, kids, and other dogs. She’s crate trained and understands the doggy door routine, but she’s still learning typical house training. She doesn’t have much interest in rowdy play right now, choosing instead to just chill and enjoy a peaceful environment. Her vet care is fully up to date: she’s spayed, current on vaccines, chipped, and even had a dental. All her paperwork is ready to go. If you’re seeking a gentle, low-key companion who likes the quiet life, Barbie is ready for her forever home. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
