Just a dobiedoodle with a song in her heart, a beard on her chin, and springs in her feet 💃

Pet of the Week: Rizzoli!
6 months old, spayed female, doberman/standard poodle/golden retriever mix, weighs about 37 lbs (still growing)

Rizzoli and her sister Isles came to us as the last two in an accidental litter of 13 (spay and neuter your pets pls). They're each looking for their own home, but they're very much twinsies! They are extremely sweet, happy-go-lucky individuals who adore people and routinely disrespect personal space. They seem like they would be perfectly happy in homes with other dogs, but it also kinda seems like the person in the room is the more important part for them. They're gentle goofuses.

Rizzoli and Isles didn't know a ton when they got here, but they're smart cookies and they're picking up all the Important Dog Stuff quickly. They'll be fabulous companions for families who keep them busy - both brain and body! (Because nothing spells trouble like a dog that's smart, athletic, and bored)

Give us a call at (859) 873-5491 for an appointment to meet Rizzoli (or Isles)!
