Hello! My name is Caprisse, and I’m a 3-year-old miniature Poodle with a beautiful chocolate coat and an even sweeter personality. I came from a breeder, and now I’m ready for a fresh start where I can finally be someone’s whole world.
Just One Bite . . .
The heartbreaking truth is simple: it only takes one mosquito bite to put a dog’s life at risk.

My Name is Eol!

My Name is Gaga!

My Name is Matisse!
I’m a 1 year-old toy poodle ( and a few months ) with a gorgeous tricolor coat! Life started a little bumpy for me—I was taken away from my mom and siblings and then surrendered to Max’s Ark because I was born with one eye that’s much smaller than the other.
