PLEASE READ THE INFORMATION BELOW BEFORE APPLYING FOR OUR PUPPIES.

 

BREED :  Miniature Poodle

SIZE:   Small; 10-20 lb.s

THEY POOP AND PEE A LOT:  Be prepared. 
Typically, a puppy can control their bladder one hour for every month of age. So if your puppy is 2 months old, they can hold it for about two hours. Don't go longer than this between bathroom breaks or they're likely to have an accident.

THEY WILL NEED GROOMED EVERY 6-8 WEEKS and brushed every few days to prevent matting.

IF you work away from home—you will need a patient care giver for your new addition in your absence.

THESE PUPS absolutely need training, exercise, and commitment to grooming. 

These Fluffy pups can give the right owner many wonderful years of companionship and love; but it will be a full time commitment. 

It is the responsibility of puppy adopters to continue and complete the puppy shot/maintenance protocols.  These pups have had their first puppy shot and are dewormed (you may have to continue follow up on deworming). 

Puppies will need at least two more boosters and a rabies vaccine through 16 weeks old and boosters again yearly.  Your vet may recommend other vaccines in the future; such as lyme, influenza etc.  

You MUST sign a contract agreeing to have your puppy spayed/neutered at an age recommended by your veterinarian.  You must provide Haven to Home with proof of SPAY/NEUTER at an agreed upon date in the future.

ASK yourself: 

  • Can I afford to have my puppy spayed/neutered?
  • This dog may live to be 15-20 years old. Do I really want to make this possible lifetime commitment?
  • If my pet gets sick or injured can I afford the medical treatment? (In some cases this could be for the duration of my pet's life.)
  • Am I home enough to give this pet the proper attention and training that it needs?
  • What will I do with the dog if we go away on vacation?
  • Can I afford the adoption fee?
  • Can I afford haircoat maintenance?
  • Can I afford the cost of monthly flea and heartworm preventative?
If you are STILL interested in adopting one of our pups :) please submit an application.  Our rescue dogs are placed in homes based on the best possible match for dog and human.
