Thank you for your interest in dog who needs a new home. Adoption can be one of the most fulfilling experiences in your life and especially in the life of your new canine companion.
A note to those looking at CPR. We have no perfect dogs - but many of our dogs have proven to be perfect for a certain someone. Our job is to find those someone's. Our most successful adopters come to CPR not because they want a dog. They come to us because they want to give a dog a home. We urge all of our potential adopters not to fall in love with a picture. While we like to know what you like in looks, a dog is more than a pretty face. Our goal is to match you with the best possible pet for you and your home. We want to create furever families.
Our descriptions contain all that we know about this dog today. We'll update as more information is known.
Are you looking to adopt within the next 30 days? If so please visit our webpage at www.carolinapoodlerescue.org and complete the application. You'll find it in the menu on the left hand side. You'll also find a total listing of all our dogs available.
Just browsing but interested in poodles and poodle mixes? Please drop a note to applications@carolinapoodlerescue.org with your name, address and phone # and email. We'll add you to our mailing list.

What kind of home would be best for me? Peyton is adaptable and would thrive in a variety of living situations—whether it’s a single person, a couple, or a bustling family. His docile nature makes him an ideal companion for kids of any age, and he’s sure to bring joy to your home. While a house with a securely fenced yard would be perfect for his playtime, he can also adapt to an apartment, provided his new family commits to regular walks and fun outings to the dog park. Daily exercise is essential for Peyton’s physical, mental, and social well-being.
Peyton came from a home with five other dogs. He has never known a home without canine friends. Peyton could be adopted to a home where he is the only dog as long as there is a solid plan for regular socialization a minimum of 4 times per week.
Socialization occurs when dogs are off leash and free to be themselves, unencumbered by human restraints (other than the fence that keeps them safely contained). Socialization times would be for instance, inviting a neighbor or friend over with their dog to play in your fenced yard or going to someone else’s home to play in their fence yard. Socialization time could be doggy daycare. Socialization time could be a group walk if you include a playtime at the end of it. Training classes do not always include socialization time. Some puppy classes do include a period of time at the end where the dogs can romp and play together. This would be perfectly acceptable. Time can also take place inside the home, it does not have to be an outdoor area, as long as the dogs are free to interact with each other without leashes or other restraints.
What is my personality like? Say hello to Peyton, your future forever best friend! He is a gentle and affectionate nearly three-year-old pup who is eagerly searching for his forever home! This sweet boy is all about companionship and thrives on spending quality time with his humans. Peyton hopes to find a family that’s home more often than not, as he believes the best bonds are built with love and shared moments.
Peyton is eager to learn but will need some guidance with basic commands such as sit, down, come, stay. He walks well on a leash, and training sessions will not only strengthen your bond but also give him the loving attention he truly desires. Peyton’s ideal adopter would be someone who can be home most of the day, as he flourishes in an environment filled with companionship and reassurance.
Peyton is more than ready to go home with you and become the loving canine companion you’ve always wanted. He has a tender heart that he longs to share with his own forever family. Peyton will brighten your home and your life.
How do I act when I first meet new people? Peyton is a bit shy when meeting new people. He may bark initially out of uncertainty and might even have a nervous pee. But don’t be discouraged! With a little patience and gentle encouragement, he will quickly warm up and show you just how loving and affectionate he can be. There’s nothing Peyton loves more than being petted and cherished by his humans.
Other tips and tidbits: Peyton was born on 1/28/2022.
House trained? Dogs can be house trained if they are in the right environment and are allowed to follow a schedule if a physical reason doesn't keep them from being trained. A dog house trained in my home may not be in yours. We will help you teach your new dog this necessary skill and based on your schedule.
Please note - we do not ship dogs. If you are interested in adopting, please take a look at the distance between the foster home location and your location and make sure you are willing to make that trip. Most of our dogs are at our farm in Pacolet, South Carolina.
To apply, please visit our webpage at www.carolinapoodlerescue.org and visit the tab on the left that directions you to the online application.
Please note that when screening applications, we look at the entire home and then make suggestions based on what would be a good fit for your home. You are not being screened for a specific dog although we are looking to see what type of dog interests you - poodles or non poodles, color, age, etc. Others here may be a better fit for you. It is very difficult to get to know a living animal from a picture and a short description. Since we are constantly getting in new dogs, this may be a dog not in our listings yet. We want you to be very happy with your new companion and will make suggestions based on what you tell us about you.
Thank you for considering CPR.
