Meet Skippy — an 8-pound poodle or poodle mix who embodies everything lovable about a happy old man. Estimated to be around 12–13 years old (or possibly older), this tiny senior gent is packed with charm, warmth, and a whole lot of cuddle power.
🛋 Why You’ll Love Skippy:
Skippy is a total lovebug who thrives on companionship. Whether he’s curling up in your lap, burrowing under blankets, or waddling behind you for snuggles and snacks, he’s happiest by your side. His soft spot? A cozy bed, a soft Milk-Bone after potty time, and lots of loving attention.
🐶 Skippy at a Glance:
- Breed: Poodle or poodle mix (not guaranteed hypoallergenic)
- Age: Estimated 12–13+ years
- Weight: ~8 lbs
- Personality: Sweet, snuggly, mellow, slightly quirky
- Potty Trained: Yes
- Leash Trained: Yes — enjoys short neighborhood strolls
- Yard: Loves a fenced yard to roam, but not required
- Good With Dogs: Yes, especially small, gentle dogs
- Barking: A little vocal when left alone, so best in a home with company
- Health: Greasy skin and signature “old man” smell are improving with care and baths
- Mobility: Limited—best in a home without many stairs due to his age and size
🏠 Ideal Home:
Skippy would thrive with a gentle, low-traffic household where someone is home often to keep him company. He’s okay with other calm dogs or could shine as a solo pup. A home with minimal stairs and lots of soft spots to rest would be perfect for his senior joints.
🛁 A Few Extra Notes:
Skippy may need regular grooming and medicated baths to keep his skin healthy—something his adopter should be ready for. Like many rescue dogs, he may require patience, time, and a whole lot of love to fully blossom.

He’s a special little soul with so much love to give in his golden years. If you’re looking for a gentle companion to warm your heart (and your lap), Skippy is waiting.
