About Rex

Meet Rex, a 20-pound male Miniature Poodle looking for a very special forever family. Rex has an adorable habit he calls the "Poodle Poke" — if he likes you, he'll gently nudge you for some love and attention. This little guy thrives on his daily walks, enjoying 2-3 mile adventures and soaking in all the interesting smells around him. Rex is friendly with the two small girl dogs and the cat in his foster home. He also shows a gentle side to respectful children but requires some time to adjust. It's important to note that he's easily spooked and can be a flight risk, so his new family should be cautious with doors and gates. Older, dog-savvy children would be ideal for him. Once Rex trusts you, he becomes a devoted companion and loves to sleep beside you. He is still learning to trust men and may need a patient approach. Consistency, gentle reassurance, and time are essential for him to feel secure. He’s doing well with potty training on a regular schedule, although a little regression may occur after moving to a new home. Rex has some opinions about his crate but is improving. Despite needing a bit of extra patience, Rex is full of love and would make a delightful addition to the right family. Could you be the one he's been waiting for? What are you waiting for?
