About Sycamore

Meet Sycamore, a resilient little guy who arrived at Hudson Valley Humane Society as a stray. He came in severely matted and underweight but has since transformed into a healthier pup, gaining weight and receiving all necessary care, including being neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. As a mixed breed of Yorkshire Terrier and Poodle, he can be a bit yappy, which is characteristic of his breed. He does have trust issues with strangers due to his past, so he’ll need some time to bond with you. Once he trusts you, he’s affectionate and ready to share his heart. Sycamore is hypoallergenic, making him a great fit for those with allergies. If you're looking for a loyal companion who appreciates a cozy couch and gentle love, Sycamore could be the one for you. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
