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
the CPR Adoption team
Date into Rescue: 12/17/24
Reason for being in rescue: breeder release/ retired breeding dog
Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet SC
Special Needs? none noted
Weight: 55 lbs
Height: 21 in at the shoulder
Spayed/Neutered: Yes
Adoption Fee: $399
Fence needed? Yes without exception. Kristie must have a physically fenced in yard (no shock fences please) at least 4' or higher (she is not a jumper). Kristie has never known life without the security of a fenced in yard. She has never walked the streets of a neighborhood and had no idea what "go potty" means when your walking on a leash. She has a lot to learn and a fenced in yard while she is learning will make all the difference in her development and transition from farm dog to family pet.
What kind of home would be best for me? Meet Kristie, your future adventure buddy!
Kristie is a beautiful, energetic, and joyous girl who’s eagerly looking for her forever home! Kristie came to us as a breeder release, and although much of the world is new to her, she approaches everything with enthusiasm and a big, happy smile.
Kristie is a bundle of energy and playfulness. While she may pull on the leash and need some basic training, she is eager to please and we’re confident she’ll be a quick learner. The time you spend teaching her will not only help her become a well-mannered pup, but it will also be a rewarding bonding experience that will strengthen your connection.
Kristie would do well in a variety of homes—whether with a single person, a couple, or a family. She’s especially fond of children and would love the chance to be part of a family with built-in playmates. Kristie is also happy around other energetic dogs and enjoys daily playtime with her canine friends. As with most breeder dogs, she has never been an only dog. She may transition to only dog status but first priority will be given to homes with another dog for Kristie to follow and model.
Kristie is a loving, happy girl who is always eager to please. She would be thrilled to accompany you on any adventure, whether it's a walk or jog, a trip to the café, or even an outing to the beach or mountains. No matter where you go, Kristie will happily join in the fun and bring a smile to your face.
Kristie is waiting patiently for her forever home. If you’re looking for a joyful, energetic companion who will keep you smiling and ready for adventure, Kristie might just be the perfect match for you!
What is my personality like? Playful and energetic.
How do I act when I first meet new people? Curious. She is not going to come running up to you but she won't run away either. She will need some patience. You are NEW and she wants time to get to know you. Our groomer calls these girls "crock pot" dogs - slow to warm up but oh if you give them the time, the flavor of your new relationship will be exquisite.
How do I act when I first meet new people? When meeting new people, Kristie is friendly but a little shy at first. If you’d like to win her over, it’s best to approach her with an underhanded gesture and give her a scratch on the chin or chest—she’ll quickly warm up to you and allow you to pet her.
Other tips and tidbits: Kristie was born on 01/15/19.
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.
