Name: Jasper
Species: Dog
Breed: Standard Parti Poodle
Age: Four
Physical Description: Jasper is bigger than any normal standard poodle, actually he's Eighty Pounds but is not overweight strangely. He is comlpletely poodle though. He is pink in his skin and has little splashes and spots of brown in there to. His fur is white and he has brown patches placed here and there, sometimes his skin color shows if he is cut too short. He has light golden eyes that are not trademark in normal poodles; they usually have coal black eyes, but he has them anyway. He has a medium length tail with a big poof ball at the end. His top knot and ears are kept long haired so that he looks like a poodle.
Personality: Jasper is very quiet, he barely ever barks or growls and never whines. The only times he makes noises are when he is extremely grumpy and someone annoys him or when he is extremely excited and he might bark a little. Jasper is very loving and loyal, he just wants to cuddle and be around people he loves. But he doesn't trust many people easily, currently the only one he trusts is Oriana. Jasper is very shy because of this and won't approach those he doesn't know well, especially tall men.
History: Jasper's history is pretty much unknown to everyone around him, all the Shelter knew was that he had had four homes before and that his last one was with a bunch of College boys who had no idea how to care for a poodle properly. They suspect that he had once had a good home for his loving personality and the fact that he loves to cuddle. They think he has been abused at least in one of those homes because if anyone lifts a hand to pet him suddenly he will cower and flinch. Jasper was left at a shelter that put down dogs if they are there too long. He was one that had been left there too long. Oriana had been on Petfinder one day when she had seen the urgent sign and how gorgeous he was. His adoption fee was only fifty dollars because they wanted him gone. So Oriana had driven down there and picked him up, saving his life.
