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? Gabriel was surrendered due to his natural instincts; he and his brother, Wesley, had a little too much fun chasing some chickens on the farm where they lived. While this may sound alarming, Gabriel was simply following his instincts. Because of this, he cannot be adopted into homes with cats or small dogs.
Gabriel thrives in an active environment and would do best in a home free of small creatures but full of toys and activities. This big boy still has a playful puppy spirit and his favorite thing in the world is playtime!
Gabriel came to us with his brother, Wesley, and we’re currently assessing whether they are a bonded pair or can be adopted separately. We’ll provide updates as we learn more.
What is my personality like? Meet Gabriel, a spirited five-year-old poodle bursting with energy and charm! He’s the perfect companion for anyone who can devote quality time to him. Gabriel is an energetic guy who gets along well with larger dogs but has a strong prey instinct, so he must be placed in a home without cats or small dogs.
An intelligent dog, Gabriel is eager to please and listens well. With his sharp mind, training him should be a breeze! He’ll need to learn basic commands like sit, stay, down, and come, along with some leash training. This time spent teaching him will strengthen the bond between the two of you.
Gabriel deserves a chance to show how wonderful he can be, despite his past. A home with a fenced yard is required for him, as it will ensure his instincts don’t take over again. A fenced yard will also give him plenty of space to run and play—whether with other dogs or older children—to burn off some of his excess energy.
Gabriel is an extremely energetic, loving boy looking for a second chance at happiness. He can’t wait to show you just how smart, fun, and joyful he is!
How do I act when I first meet new people? Gabriel loves people and enjoys playing with them.
Other tips and tidbits: Gabriel was born on 9/18/2019
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.
