Shelter Bio
Noodles is a 3-year-old male terrier mix with an energetic and engaging personality. When first leaving his kennel, he can be a bit excitable, but once he has a chance to settle, Noodles shows himself to be a sweet, affectionate, and people-oriented companion.
He is an active dog who enjoys playtime, especially with tennis balls and would thrive with an adopter who can provide regular exercise and enrichment. Noodles already knows basic cues such as “Sit” and “Down” and is eager to continue learning. He is still developing his leash skills and may pull when excited, so continued training will be beneficial. Due to his high energy level, Noodles would do best in a home with teenagers ages 16 and older. With the right match, he has the potential to be a loyal, fun-loving companion for an active household.
