Handsome Jackson Poodle Grafton, MA

This handsome old man is Jackson. Handsome Jackson is a 12 year old toy poodle who weighs 12 pounds. He is house trained and really mellow overall. He absolutely loves to lounge around the house on any couch, lap, or bed he can. He loves to be in the same room with his people-- he doesn't like to be left alone and will bark a bit if he doesn't know where you are. He would be a sweet companion for someone who is home a lot.

Here is a concert he recently gave for his foster home when humans weren't getting going with bedtime fast enough: https://www.instagram.com/p/B2SW_xNpe8A/

He also loves car rides to Dunkin Donuts: https://www.instagram.com/p/B03gNAaJBNv/

Jackson gets so excited when his people get home, and will do his best to jump onto you to give loves, but he's pretty clumsy about it. It's really cute.

Jackson has a few physical limitations. He doesn't do big sets of stairs well and needs to be carried to a second story. He can do small sets of stairs, such as porch steps, quite easily though. He does have a grade 3 heart murmur as well. He's been going for water-treadmilling and massage to help his back out and strengthen his legs, and he's really improving a lot! Jackson doesn't love to be picked up, so he is very much 'handle with care' when picking him up and putting him down.

Jackson gets along with new people very well as long as they approach slowly. He's really little and can be nervous!

NOTE: Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most of the dogs we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label.

We expect that all adopted dogs will enroll in a formal dog training class with their new owners. Obedience and training classes are an excellent way to learn more about your newly adopted dog, gain handling and training experience, and improve your relationship with your pet.
