Buttercup - Female - 2 Years - Poodle

Buttercup is a beautiful 2-year-old poodle with a tender heart and a story of quiet bravery. When she first arrived, the world felt overwhelming, and her crate became the only place she felt truly safe. But with patience, kindness, and time, Buttercup has begun to peek out and discover that there are good things waiting for her. She’s slowly learning to trust and form bonds—with both people and other dogs—and every small step forward is a big victory. Buttercup will thrive in a calm, quiet home where she can continue to blossom at her own pace. She’ll need someone gentle and steady who can show her that toys can be fun, that love is safe, and that a slow, reassuring walk on a leash isn’t so scary after all. A fenced-in yard would be ideal for her, giving her the security she needs to explore her surroundings confidently and comfortably. If you’re looking for a soft soul to nurture and watch grow, Buttercup is ready for a patient, loving family.
