About Stan Laurel (Poodle) in Placerville

Stan Laurel is waiting for you at El Dorado County Animal Services - Placerville in Placerville, CA 95667. Meet Stan Laurel ,Stan Laurel is a 2.5-year-old neutered male Poodle mix (possibly Irish Wolfhound… possibly just a certified Large Unit) weighing in at a very serious 102.2 pounds of pure, unfiltered chaos.Let’s not sugarcoat it—Stan is a behemoth. A big, bouncy, oversized love missile who moves through the world like a bull in a china shop… if the bull had excellent intentions, questionable awareness of its own size, and a deep commitment to being part of whatever you are doing at all times.Stan is smart. Very smart. Possibly too smart for his own good. He just hasn’t quite applied that intelligence to things like “gentle greetings,” “body awareness,” or “understanding that humans are not meant to be gently bulldozed in excitement.” Training is still on his to-do list, right under “figure out personal space” and “why do doors exist if not for testing speed against them?”But here’s the thing about Stan—he is endearingly chaotic. He’s the kind of dog who will absolutely knock your drink over, step on your foot with the weight of a small horse, and then look at you like you are the love of his life. And somehow… you’ll forgive him. Every time.He’s a volunteer favorite, because underneath all that bohemoth energy is a goofy, affectionate boy who just wants to be close to his people—preferably as close as physically possible.Stan needs a home that appreciates BIG dogs, bigger personalities, and the occasional structural recalibration of household furniture. He needs guidance, consistency, and someone who can laugh when life gets accidentally knocked off the coffee table.If you’ve ever wanted a dog who feels like living with a lovable wrecking ball who also gives excellent affection… Stan Laurel is ready for his starring role in your life.
