Meet Saint
MSPCA - Boston Animal Care and Adoption Center lists Saint as male Poodle in Boston. Saint is described as an older adult poodle. The listing says he came to the shelter after his owner could no longer care for him, and the rescue should confirm that history.
It takes Saint a few minutes to warm up. Once he does, he would love nothing more than to attach himself to your hip. He has shown that he loves to settle with his friends, especially if they are giving him pats.
Saint has had dog friends and has lived with a dog in the past. The rescue thinks he could do well with another polite dog friend. He is also reported to have good experiences living with a cat and children.
Please confirm these details with MSPCA - Boston Animal Care and Adoption Center.
