About Franz
Meet Franz! This charming 1.5-year-old Miniature Poodle tips the scales at a light 14 pounds and offers a delightful mix of playful energy and tender companionship. He enjoys daily walks of 20–30 minutes, playful fetch sessions, and those cozy cuddle moments on the couch. Franz does exceptionally well in a home setting; he’s house-trained, crate-trained, and shows impressive manners. You can confidently leave him alone for a few hours, as he can relax quietly in his bed without separation anxiety. This clever little guy has already mastered basic commands like "sit" and even enjoys having his teeth brushed and his paws cleaned after walks. Franz is friendly with other dogs after a quick introduction and has experienced the joys of the dog park. He loves women and, though he might take a little time to warm up to men, he never shows aggression—just a need for a patient approach. Due to his startle reflex and desire for a safe space, he’d thrive in a home with older, respectful kids rather than very young children. One of Franz's most endearing traits is his affectionate nature. He loves to be petted and snuggled, and once he bonds with someone, he becomes a genuinely loyal friend. He’s calm and quiet, only giving a few barks for door knocks while otherwise settling beautifully into any home environment. If you’re looking for a loving, playful companion to brighten your life, Franz might just be your perfect match. He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations.
