About Stevie

Meet Stevie! This tiny 8-pound poodle mix has a big personality. His limited vision doesn't hold him back from enjoying life. He loves spending time outside, exploring the yard, and going on walks, taking in all the interesting smells around him. Due to his partial blindness, he requires some extra consideration when meeting people and navigating his surroundings. To help him feel safe, it's best to approach him slowly and talk to him as you get close. Predictable routines and gentle introductions will assist him in getting comfortable in his new home. Stevie is quite the character! If it gets too quiet, he’ll start chatting, wanting to know where his humans are. He cherishes being near them and is happiest when he’s close by. But don’t worry; he’s also content to curl up for a nap in a sunny spot or his cozy crate. Stevie would thrive best in a home without young children, as their unpredictable movements could startle him. On the bright side, he is house trained and crate trained. Once he trusts you and learns your routine, he settles in beautifully. If you're on the hunt for a little dog with a big heart, Stevie might just be the perfect companion for you. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
