Meet Crumpet

Adoption Fee: $650 Crumpet – Soft on the Outside, Sass on the Inside Age: 6 years Breed: Schnoodle (Schnauzer + Poodle = Fluffy Genius) Weight: 22 lbs of lightly toasted loaf Shedding: Non-existent (just like his need for constant attention) If you’ve ever dreamed of owning a walking croissant with opinions, meet Crumpet—our perfectly golden, slightly flaky, soft-hearted snuggle adjacent foster who’s basically a cozy Sunday morning in dog form. This 6-year-old Schnoodle was rescued from the shelter, dusted off like fine china, and now lives to lounge near his people, soak up the sun, and make very serious eye contact with rabbits on walks. He may not demand belly rubs or leap into your lap, but he will give you the kind of quiet, loyal companionship that feels like a weighted blanket with paws. A Day in the Life of a Crumpet: 7:00 AM: Wake-up, morning potty break, paws gently buffed and fluffed post-outing 7:30 AM: Breakfast (fish-based—this boy has allergies, but he eats like a Michelin-starred guest) Daytime: Sunbathing, people-watching, quietly judging you from the corner of the room while absolutely refusing to fetch anything Afternoon stroll: Light stretching of the legs and strategic rabbit tracking Evening: A long walk, dinner, couch time, and quality background presence while you do chores Night: Final potty break, then snuggled into his dog bed in your room because yes, he’s emotionally supportive, but also values his personal space Why Crumpet Might Just Be Your New Best Friend: Crate-averse but couch-devoted Fully house-trained (he’s a gentleman, after all) Doesn’t bark unless he has a reason—like zoomies, or a dog giving him attitude Great with small dogs, polite (but suspicious) around the big ones Good with kids, especially if they come with snacks and gentle pets Not a big toy guy, but he will hoard his treats upstairs like a Victorian miser hiding gold Walks like a dream... until a rabbit appears, and then he walks like he’s auditioning for “Mission: Impossible” Scenarios You Can Totally Picture: You’re sipping coffee in your backyard. Crumpet is lying in a sunbeam, looking like a dog-shaped biscuit, occasionally rolling over with the sigh of someone who’s known true luxury. You’re out at a café. Crumpet is chilling under the table, impressing everyone with his mysterious calm. You catch someone trying to sneak a photo. You drop a snack. Crumpet appears silently, like a polite food ninja, and then just... stays. Forever. Crumpet’s Ideal Home: Someone who works from home or is home often. A backyard for lounging is highly recommended. Crumpet’s not a fan of long, lonely days—he wants to be your shadow, not your pen pal. In Summary: Crumpet doesn’t need constant petting. He’s not clingy. He doesn’t demand a ton. But he will curl up nearby, give you slow blinks of affection, and remind you daily that peace, loyalty, and low-shedding companionship are worth their weight in dog biscuits. If you’re looking for a best friend who’s mellow, magical, and secretly hilarious (ask him about that time he growled at himself in the mirror)—Crumpet is your guy. Apply now to bring home a flaky, fuzzy, perfectly golden companion. No jam necessary.
