Precious Poppy

This poodle is up for adoption in Lawrenceville, Ga.

Precious "Poppy" is a purebred miniature poodle who is about two years old. She was rescued from a shelter in North Georgia, where she was filthy, matted and covered in fleas and ticks. Once we rescued her, we took her straight to the groomer -- and look what a cutie pie we found underneath! Poppy is a very tiny, "girly" girl. She is quite delicate and feminine, but with a happy, spunky side, too. Poppy is very friendly and very affectionate. She is coming along nicely with crate-training, but she is not completely housetrained yet (judging by how dirty she was when we got her, she likely lived outdoors before). Poppy is very small -- she only weighs about seven pounds. Due to her small size and stature, we cannot place her in a home with kids under 10 years of age (not because she is aggressive in any way -- this is strictly for her protection). Poppy is very quiet and well-mannered, and will make a great pet for most any loving family. If you'd like to meet her, please let us know.

Poppy is fully vetted -- spayed/neutered, heartworm negative, and current on vaccinations and deworming. The adoption fee is $200 (cash only, please).

You can apply to adopt by submitting an application via our website at http://www.sohfga.com/. We hold adoptions at Petco in Snellville from 12-4 every Saturday and Sunday. Not every pet is present on every adoption day, so if you want to meet this one, be sure and contact us!
