Peyton

My story

PEYTON — Small Dog, Big Personality Looking for a tiny dog with absolutely zero “tiny dog energy”? Meet Peyton. At just under 3 months old, this toy poodle is already running a full security operation. Leaves? Suspicious. Shadows? Questionable. Random noises? Absolutely not on his watch. Peyton is on high alert at all times and takes his job very seriously… despite being about the size of a slipper. He’s not here to sit quietly in your purse or be carried around like an accessory. Peyton is a full-send, live-in-the-action kind of guy. He wrestles hard, plays harder, and comes with a bold personality that far exceeds his tiny frame. He’s confident, curious, and just the right amount of spicy. When he’s not busy patrolling your home or bulldozing through playtime, he’s crashing wherever his people (and animal friends) are—yes, that includes the bed. He’s social, snuggly on his terms, and thrives in a home that can match his energy and keep him engaged. Also important: this boy LOVES to eat. Meals, snacks, crumbs—he’s in. **Peyton’s ideal home:** • Active household that appreciates a big personality • Another playful dog = bonus points • Someone who understands puppies + is ready for training • Not looking for a quiet lap dog… because he’s not that If you want a tiny, fearless, slightly dramatic best friend who will keep life interesting (and your home “protected” from airborne threats), Peyton is your guy.
