My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, shots current (DHPP, Bordetella and Rabies where applicable), dewormed, flea and tick treated, and microchipped.

Meet Riddle – The Ultimate Sidekick! ️‍♂️✨

If you're looking for a sweet, snuggly, and completely devoted best friend, look no further—Riddle is your guy! This 1-2-year-old Bichon-Poodle mix is as loyal as they come, non-shedding (perfect for allergy sufferers!), and absolutely adorable.

The Mystery of Riddle’s Heart (Spoiler: It Belongs to You!)

Riddle was a bit shy when he first arrived at his foster home, but it only took three days for his true personality to shine. Once he decides you’re his person, he will never stop looking at you with pure adoration (seriously, his eye contact game is strong). He follows his foster everywhere, curls up next to you like a tiny, fluffy shadow, and politely requests belly rubs whenever possible.

He even slept in his own crate at first but one night walked into his foster sibling Dobby’s crate—and they’ve been cuddling together ever since. Yes, it’s that cute.

A Day in the Life of Riddle:

✔ 7:00 AM: Morning walk (he makes adorable little circles around you while checking in).
✔ 7:30 AM: Breakfast—he’s a nibbler and snacks throughout the day.
✔ Work Time: Either lounges on the couch or snoozes next to you while you work.
✔ 2:30 PM: Another walk (more sniffing, more tail wags).
✔ 5:00 PM: Dinner (he eats at his own pace—no rush, no worries).
✔ 9:30 PM: Last potty break before bedtime, where he dreams of belly rubs and long walks with his favorite person—you!

What Makes Riddle Special?

✔ House-trained & crate-trained – A gentleman indoors!
✔ Non-shedding coat – No fur tumbleweeds in your home.
✔ Loves walks & being by your side – The perfect adventure buddy!
✔ Great with dogs his size – Loves his buddy Dobby but is cautious with bigger dogs.
✔ Rides well in cars & even took public transportation like a pro!
✔ Quiet & polite – Only barks at the doorbell, then quickly settles down.
✔ Perfect for a work-from-home human, retiree, or family with older kids.

Riddle’s Dream Home:

Riddle would thrive in a calm, loving home where he can be someone’s shadow and best friend. He’d love a human who enjoys leisurely walks, cozy movie nights, and gentle companionship.

❤️ Why You Need Riddle in Your Life:

This little guy is pure sweetness wrapped in a fluffy, non-shedding coat. He adores his person, checks in constantly, and gives you that “you’re my whole world” look that melts hearts. If you’re looking for a best friend who’s both loyal and low-maintenance, Riddle is waiting to meet you!

Ready to solve the mystery of true love? ️‍♂️ Adopt Riddle today!

Riddle is an option for a home that has had a dog previously. If there are children in the home they need to be over the age of 5.

More about this rescue

We are passionate folks who love dogs and love people! We strive to make the most appropriate match between human and canine. Because our dogs live in foster homes we know about their temperament and personality and therefore can help families and individuals decide if the dog is a good match or not. We are excited to help people find the right pooch for them and look forward to meeting great folks and welcoming them into the DPS Family.
