Maurice

Maurice is a 1-year-old mini poodle mix, weighing in at about 14 pounds of quiet hope and gentle sweetness. While we may never know exactly what his early life looked like, it's clear he didn't always feel safe, and that's something he's still learning. Maurice is a sensitive soul who needs love, patience, and a slow, understanding approach. New environments can be overwhelming for him, and the busy, noisy rescue setting has been especially hard. While he's safe here, the constant activity leaves him feeling unsure and overstimulated. But beneath that nervous exterior is a little dog who wants so badly to trust. You can see it in the way he watches, the way he lingers close, the way he quietly hopes for connection. With time and kindness, Maurice will blossom into a deeply loyal and loving companion. He does well with his kennel buddies and finds comfort in the presence of other dogs, which can help him feel more secure as he adjusts.
