Maestro Poodle Seattle, WA

Animal Profile: Maestro is an estimated 5-year-old 15 lb neutered male miniature poodle who was rescued from SBC shelter and arriving to Seattle area foster care on Sunday Feb 18th. At the shelter he was kenneled with other dogs, and assessed to be friendly with people and dogs. We will share more info on Maestro as we get to know him in foster care.

Foster Updates: Yes I bought Maestro a little bowtie and did a little photoshoot. How could I not get him a bowtie with "Maestro" for a name? Maestro is sweetheart with a lot of personality and playfulness. He's fully housetrained, good on leash, and a top-tier cuddler. He gets along very well with other dogs, including my two resident dogs, but loves his person more than anything. He's mostly calm when hanging out with us, but he twirls around when he's excited and likes to play tug-of-war. He loves playing with his toys and doesn't destroy them. He's fine in his crate if I am around, and is getting better at being crated alone. He sleeps through the night in his crate very nicely. He's very smart and eager to please. I think in his past life he was not fed regularly as he is very skinny and a bit obsessed with food. He can get over-excited and a little mouthy taking treats, so he'd be best in a home without young kids.
