Brown Poodle used to long walks and daily interaction

This brown Poodle has been living with us for about a year and became part of our everyday routine very quickly. Every afternoon we used to take it for a walk around the same neighborhood park, and over time it developed a habit of getting excited the moment it hears the leash being picked up. Outside it becomes energetic and curious, often stopping to observe people or other dogs passing by. Once back home though, it calms down quickly and usually lies somewhere near where people are sitting. Poodles are known for their intelligence and this dog clearly shows it by learning simple commands without much repetition. Its curly coat has been regularly maintained and it is used to grooming sessions. Because our work schedules changed drastically recently, the dog now spends too many hours alone during the day, which is why we believe it would be happier in a home where someone can interact with it more often.
