Caraxes

Hi! I'm Caraxes! I'm a 10-year-old Rat Terrier that weighs 13 lbs. My name may sound a bit more combat-ready than I am, but don't let the name fool you—I'm much more interested in snacks, snuggles, and living my best cozy life! After all, every good dragon rider needs a loyal companion, right?<br/><br/>Favorite Things: This little guy is a FOODIE! If you've got yummy snacks, Caraxes will be your new best friend! He's not much of a toy guy, but he's always happy to curl up with his favorite human for some quality snuggle time. His love language? Treats and companionship!<br/><br/>Training & Manners: Caraxes is a quiet gentleman with wonderful manners who enjoys napping in his bed and sharing his space with other dogs. He's still gaining confidence with leash walking and working on his housetraining. His foster mom keeps him on a consistent routine, but he may still have accidents, so his adopter should be prepared to continue working with him patiently and consistently.<br/><br/>Health and Care: Caraxes is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. He will need monthly heartworm and flea prevention like any other Florida pup.<br/><br/>Other Animals: Other dogs are a-okay with Caraxes! He's patient and easygoing, even with pups who aren't quite as well-mannered as he is. He hasn't been introduced to cats, so any feline introductions would need to be slow, careful, and supervised.<br/><br/>Children: Caraxes has not interacted with children. Because he is shy and reserved, we believe older children who understand how to be gentle, respectful, and patient would be the best fit.<br/><br/>Ideal Home: Caraxes needs a patient and understanding family willing to give him time to build confidence. New situations can be scary for this sensitive little guy, and even going outside can sometimes make him nervous. A securely fenced yard is imperative since he isn't comfortable walking on a leash yet, and his adopter should be committed to helping him continue building confidence and mastering his housetraining.<br/><br/>Overall: Caraxes is a sweet, quiet, affectionate little guy looking for a safe place to land. He may be shy at first, but underneath his cautious exterior is a gentle companion who loves snacks, cozy beds, and being near his people. He'll need someone willing to give him time, patience, and plenty of reassurance, but watching him blossom could be incredibly rewarding. He may not be the fearsome dragon his name suggests, but with the right person by his side, Caraxes is ready to discover just how wonderful life can be!<br/><br/>If you think Caraxes may be the one, please visit www.PoodleandPoochRescue.org and submit an adoption application. If it looks like a good fit, his foster family will reach out with more information. Caraxes' adoption donation is $300.
