Klondike Standard Poodle Los Alamitos, CA

Please read the dog's entire bio before you apply. Sadly, we are no longer able to respond to every application, but if your application appears to be a good match for the dog we will reach out within 3 days.
Klondike is a male standard poodle pup born 3/29/22. He was a breeder release and has been at the breeder's home his whole life until we got him so he has not had many of the normal puppy experiences such as leash walking, car rides, outings, etc. He is very shy and will need more socialization, training, confidence building. He is 53 lbs now and will likely mature at around 60 lbs. Klondike did good for for his grooming and likes other dogs, so a more confident/nice doggy playmate would be good to show him the way. He is very pretty with thick black hair and will make someone a great pet, but his home does need to have doggy experience, patience and lots of free time. Because he is so timid, this is not an appropriate city dog, so please only apply if you live in a fairly quiet neighborhood, not downtown.
Most of our dogs are not available to an out of the area adoption because of difficulty to follow up.
