Meet Yoder!

Yoder is an 8-month-old male Poodle–Bichon mix with a whole lot of puppy packed into a little body. A breeder release, he’s all puppy energy and always on the lookout for his next adventure—or mischief!

Yoder loves to play, zoom, and investigate everything around him. His favorite things include his toys, crunchy paper towel rolls (the best treasure!), and treats of any kind. He’s currently working on potty training and is eager to keep learning with a patient, loving family.

Yoder is under veterinary care for a congenital eye condition. His left eye has a thickened cornea and he likely does not have vision in that eye, though he may see shadows. The good news? It doesn’t slow him down one bit! Yoder is a happy, playful little speedster who lives life to the fullest.

Because of his enthusiasm for play and exploration, Yoder will need a securely fenced yard in his forever home where he can safely run and burn off puppy energy.

If you’re looking for a joyful, playful companion with a big heart and a little extra sparkle, Yoder might be your perfect match!
