About Cookie Dough

Meet Cookie Dough! This 2-year-old poodle mix is 20 pounds of love and energy, fully committed to his role as the self-appointed CEO of his foster home. With a watchful eye over the neighborhood, he’s quick to alert everyone if a squirrel even thinks about moving nearby. Fetch is his passion; he’ll chase any ball as if it’s the most important mission. During car rides, he revels in the sights, taking the opportunity to judge the scenery like a true passenger princess. Cookie Dough loves other dogs but could benefit from a canine sibling who can gently remind him that not every moment is a party. He’s also open to being your one and only companion! Although he enjoys walks and may have opinions about seeing other dogs, his potty training is still in progress, so patience is essential. Cuddling is where he shines—he’ll attach to you like a dryer sheet, ready to provide unconditional love. Ideal for a family with older, dog-savvy kids, Cookie Dough may also require a fenced yard for his adventures. He’s crate trained at night and recently neutered, looking for a forever family that appreciates a bit of personality alongside their love. This charming pup might not be the perfect cookie just yet, but he’s surely one of the sweetest!
