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.
thanks

What kind of home would be best for me? Ginger is a gentle, sweet senior dog who’s had a rough time in the past but is now ready to find her forever home where she can spend her golden years in comfort and love. As a senior dog, Ginger has some special needs. She’s missing many of her teeth, is blind in her right eye, is hard of hearing, and has arthritis. But none of that affects her sweet, loving personality. She is ready to live out her days in a cozy, peaceful home surrounded by love.
Ginger is a senior and acts like one. She is the sweetest, most gentle senior you’ll ever meet. Ginger is a calm, loving companion who just wants to eat, nap, get treats, and be adored. She’s a perfect fit for someone looking for a low-maintenance dog who is content to relax and enjoy life.
Ginger is a lap dog at heart! She loves nothing more than curling up in your lap for a nap and will be happy to snooze away the hours. When she wakes up, she’s ready for a treat or a meal, then it’s back to cuddles and rest. She is a mellow girl who prefers comfort over activity, so while she can walk on a leash, she won’t go far and would rather be carried around like the little queen she is.
What is my personality like? Ginger’s life hasn’t always been easy. She was once part of a home where she was treated well, but after her owner passed away, she moved to a new place that wasn't kind to her. Ginger was found in a sad and unhealthy condition—living in a cluttered, dirty space filled with debris, cobwebs, and feces. She had feces in her fur and was left with food that had flies on it.
Thankfully, Ginger was rescued, cleaned up, and given the medical care she needed. She’s now doing much better, but she deserves a warm, loving environment where she can truly relax and enjoy her remaining years.
All Ginger wants is a warm loving , calm environment where she can be adored. She’s small enough to live in either a house or an apartment and would do well with a single person, couple, or family who is home often and able to take her along on trips. If there are children in the home, they should be older and calm, as Ginger thrives in a relaxed setting.
While enjoys being the center of attention, she’s open to having another calm, respectful dog in the home. However, she would prefer to be the only dog in the household so she can soak up all the love and affection she deserves.
If you think Ginger could be the perfect companion for you, please consider giving her the loving home she truly deserves.
How do I act when I first meet new people? Ginger is the sweetest senior girl you'll ever meet. She thinks all new people are potential laps to sit in and be loves to be loved on. She's ready to settle into her forever home, where she can be cherished for the wonderful senior she is.
Other tips and tidbits: Ginger was seized in a cruelty case, so we don't have any of her historical medical records. We were told she is 13 years old. We celebrate her birthday as 09/25/2011.
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.
