About Madame Dottie

Madame Dottie is a sweet 3.5-year-old Miniature Poodle looking for her forever home. She’s recently transitioned from a commercial breeding environment and is adapting well to her new surroundings. Dottie is currently living in a loving foster home and getting along nicely with resident dogs and cats. She enjoys being around other animals and has shown a natural curiosity toward her human companions, though she can be a bit shy at first. She takes treats gently and expresses her desire for attention with a sweet little bump of her nose on your leg. Dottie has begun crate training, doing well with her crate at night and responding positively to leash walking. She may need some guidance on outdoor bathroom habits, preferring hard surfaces over grass. While she hasn’t had any accidents in the house, her foster family is working on helping her feel more comfortable outside. Once her spay procedure is completed, she will be ready for adoption. Due to her past experiences, she’s looking for a patient and loving family that can help her thrive. Let’s make sure she finds a warm and nurturing home where she can truly flourish.
