IN CELBRATION OF THANKSGIVING, “TUCKER” IS NOW AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION!
Tucker’s adoption had been placed on hold 4 months ago when we were outside watching Tucker and the other Poodles run, jump and play. Suddenly we heard Tucker give out a loud “YIP!!” and clearly saw him limping.
The other Poodles wouldn’t tell us what happened. But some squirrels were chattering about how Tucker was chasing them, and he took a quick turn to the right.
Not sure if the squirrels were telling us the truth, so we quickly got Tucker into our Vet where X-rays were taken. We then learned that he had torn (ruptured) his right rear leg “Cruciate Ligament”. Humans have a similar experience, but it’s called a torn “ACL”. Maybe the squirrels were correct?
Well, a Specialist was called in and a surgery was done to fix his torn ACL and meniscus. This surgery is very expensive (thousands), but Tucker was in pain, and he needed our help.
And for those of you who asked or questioned our decision: We will not euthanize any healthy Poodle when a highly successful surgery is available!
After the surgery, Tucker had his own living space in our entry way to limit his access to steps and activity. He had to remain confined and quiet. Sadly, he really missed going for walks, playing outside and going to the grandchildren’s baseball games.
BUT NOW WE CELEBRATE.... Tucker’s last x-ray on Wednesday, November 27th showed he had completely recovered from his surgery with no problems!! He now is completely able to use all 4 of his legs and greatly enjoys going for his daily 2-mile walk with Mike and the other Standard Poodles. He also continues to love greeting people who come to visit. He is completely housetrained and has full access to our entire home at night and when we are gone. Such a good boy!
TUCKER'S INFORMATION: He is a creamy white AKC Standard Poodle who was born June 23, 2015. He weighs a healthy 71 pounds and measures 25 inches from the floor to his withers.
Eight months ago, this pretty boy came to us from a Minnesota breeder who was retiring. Special thank you to this breeder as she was willing to wait until the recent tax season ended (April) so we could start accepting some of her adult Poodles. She also wanted the best homes for her Poodles as they enter their “retirement” years.
Tucker was scared out of his mind the first few days with us. But he quickly learned all about being a family dog. He follows us around our home while being a part of our family, knows how to come when called, will sit upon command and is always ready for hugs and attention.
We also took him to various public events, including several softball games that our grandchildren were playing in. While there, he had a good time enjoying the noise, commotion, and people all around him. He also received and enjoyed a lot of love, attention and hugs from many of the children at the games.
Tucker is a quiet, soft, gentle, easy going big boy, a real cream puff. Going for his morning walk with Mike when he listens to the birds sing, watching the squirrels running around and meeting people is on the TOP of his list of fun things he loves to do.
I would also like to stress that he is a very smart boy and has quickly figured out what to do and when. Example, rattle the Cheerios bag and he knows it’s time for breakfast as Mike sneaks Tucker a few Cheerios from the bag.
Did I tell you that he is such a very smart and a very good boy?!
While Tucker has been around other dogs all his life, he completely ignores small dogs, but is just fine with other easy-going large dogs, like our Standard Poodle Lola. Yet, Tucker would be the perfect boy all by himself as he considers himself a member of a family and NOT a dog.
*A SECURLY FENCED YARD will be recommended as he has been a kennel dog and not trained to relieve himself on a leash.
*You must be physically able to handle a large Standard Poodle.
*Preference will be given to a quiet family with past Standard Poodle experience.
*Large, easy going dogs are fine.
BUT PLEASE:
*NO puppies or cats.
*NO aggressive or assertive dogs (they scare him and me).
*NO young children.
*Like most all rescue groups, we do NOT adopt our Poodles to homes more than 1 day’s drive (round trip) from our location here in central Minnesota.
Yes. This is a very rare opportunity for the right family as we all know that a good Standard Poodle is hard to find. With the introduction of Doodles, sadly the Standard Poodles are becoming harder to find. Why Doodle when you can Poodle?
He has been neutered, and at his dental appointment, he had many of his rotting teeth removed. Our Vet also removed a few small non-cancerous cysts from Tuckers back and side. Ouch. It was a difficult and long surgery, but he did just fine and now he is feeling a LOT better. He is eating a hard kibble, so there is no need for soften or canned dog food.
Yes, all his Vet work was very expensive. But Tucker is such an amazing loving, smart and good boy that we want the best for him. Everyone loves him, including the staff at our Vet’s office as they all wanted to take him home!
He has been Vet checked healthy, is up to date on vaccinations, worming, heartworm/lymes/Ehrlich/ Anaplasmosis (4DX) tested negative, placed on a heartworm preventative, and Home Again microchipped.
As with all the other Standard Poodles we have adopted, Tucker’s adoption fee is 1 million, trillion, zillion dollars. However, for the right family his adoption fee is $450.00 which includes $31.00 for our 7.375% Minnesota state sales tax and helps pay for just some of his extensive vet work.
Also included is his leash, collar, a bag of quality dog food, a 10-gallon dog food container, treats, a cute toy box, along with a new blanket, a dog bed and lots of good information to help your Poodle adoption move forward on the right paw!
Again, Tucker is a very nice Standard Poodle boy who wants and deserves a good and loving home for his “retirement”. Yes, we would keep him, but the greatest gift we give our Poodles is to let them go when the right family comes to adopt them.

More about this rescue
PICKET FENCE POODLE RESCUE is a charitable and educational organization to rescue and supply Poodles with love, shelter, food, human companionship, medical care and spay-neuter services until permanent placement is secured into a pre-screened loving home, as long as the Poodle is not dangerous to humans or other dogs.

PICKET FENCE POODLE RESCUE wishes to eliminate the euthanasia of any healthy, adoptable Poodles. We do not accept euthanasia as a means of population control for animals. We believe each Poodle's life is meaningful and each deserves a loving home.
