About Adrian

Adrian, a sweet 14-year-old Standard Poodle, is ready for a loving forever home. Recently, he had a dental cleaning and a mass removal on his shoulder, and he's healing beautifully. Weighing 40 lbs, Adrian seeks a special home that understands the unique needs of a senior dog. He’s a loving little shadow who thrives on companionship, staying close to his person at all times. Whether he's curled up next to you on the couch or resting at your feet, Adrian is happiest when he's by your side. Though he enjoys a short game of fetch every now and then, his true passion lies in warmth and comfort. Adrian loves cozy beds and often naps in the hallway. As a senior dog, he does have some specific needs, particularly when it comes to grooming and medications. His coat needs to stay short to prevent overheating, and he prefers soft foods while needing regular grooming for his comfort. Adrian shines in a calm environment and would thrive with someone who works from home. He gets along well with other dogs, provided they’re gentle and low energy. If you're interested, please visit his adoption application at Rescue Row. This kind-hearted pup has so much love to give and is just waiting for the right person to bring home.
