Nugget is the sweetest boy with the most captivating eyes. He will stare into your soul as you give him love, and that is really all he wants. He plays well in our shelter playgroups, getting along with most other dogs. At just under 1 year old, Nugget thrives in the yard, getting his energy out with the other dogs. He does best with more confident, social dogs as he is still working on his approach when meeting new dogs in the yard (but that is just because he has so much love to give)! He would thrive in a home with other playful dogs, or kids, or both! But regardless of if your home has that or not, the main thing he needs is a ton of love. If you give him your attention, he will be perfectly content in your home. Come meet Nugget, you won`t be disappointed!

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: Average Joe was born into rescue in 3/2016. He returned to rescue in 2018 . Reason for being in rescue: Average Joe was born into rescue. He returned to rescue in 2018 due to medical and behavioral issues. Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet, SC Special Needs? Joe is neutered, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative. In February 2022, Joe was treated by UGA's orthopedic practice for a rupture of his right cranial cruciate ligament with the tibial plateau leveling osteotomy procedure. Full medical records will be provided. Joe is a different dog post-surgery. It is amazing the physical and behavioral difference when a dog is not living in chronic pain! Joe is taking cbd oil daily to help with separation anxiety - he simply wants to be with his people all the time! Weight:  64 lbs Height:  20 in Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $200 Fence needed? No, but he would enjoy one. He could go with or without a fence and be just happy! What kind of home would be best for me?  Joe is looking for a home that has a family home more than they are away or a home that can take him everywhere they go. Joe does have some separation anxiety but does well in a crate when it’s time for his humans to leave. He can be loud in the crate when another dog passes, he’s simply overwhelmed easy. Due to this Joe would not be appropriate for an apartment. Joe is good with dogs of all sizes, as any person, Joe does on occasion have a dog or two he doesn’t like and that’s just fine. Joe met our cat with no issues. Joe would do fine in a home with older mannered kids. Joe is ideal for retirees looking for a dog to take on strolls and enjoy the loyalty of a lab mix for all of his days. What is my personality like? Average Joe is not very average. He loves his person with his entire heart, his person makes the world go around. Joe is clingy and sticks with his person, he does understand boundaries when they are needed! Joe knows how to walk on a leash, he knows sit and he knows down. That is the extent of his training but it’s plenty enough for such a well mannered dog. Joe will sit by his person off leash and be just content. Joe really hates to he left alone, it stresses him to no end. His person will always have to go outside with him and be present with him. Joe does well with daily cbd oil to help calm his anxiety. There aren’t enough words to describe how proud Joe has made his caregivers in the last year. Dogs living in chronic pain are similar to humans - they don't engage much, they can be selective about who they want to be with and when, and they are not as active as one that feels well. With medical care to address his chronic pain, Joe has improved with his dog skills, done phenomenal with crate training, and just overall became a more confident dog. Joe is phenomenal and he is definitely worth meeting in person! How do I act when I first meet new people? Friendly and happy!! Other tips and tidbits: Average Joe's birthday is 04/05/2016 House trained? Dogs can be house trained if they are in the right environment and are allowed to follow a schedule as long as 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. November 5, 2024, 5:31 pm

Do you think he was looking for a job maybe?  As he was microchipped, his original owner, now living in Arizona, was contacted.  She rescued him as a puppy and had him vetted and found a home but sadly has lost track with the owner.  So Maxwell is now looking for a new home. Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet SC Special Needs?  None noted except a real desire to be loved and cared for Weight: 65 lbs est Height: 24 in Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $200 Fence needed? Yes What kind of home would be best for me? Maxwell loves to explore! He is looking for an  active family that wants to include him in their adventures. He has done well with dogs, large  and small, here at the rescue. He could be an only dog but would do well with another dog to pal around with. An experienced dog owner that’s home more than away would be best for this  active explorer.  What is my personality like? Maxwell is a typical gregarious, happy, laid back labrador retriever.  Maxwell has been very calm with people and dogs. He gets along well with everything.  He is eager to get out of the kennel and explore - we suspect this is how he ended up getting away from his home. Maxwell gets very excited about vehicles. He’s ready to load up and go!  Maxwell is a energetic happy boy that is looking for a running partner. He loves to run and boy is he good at it. He would enjoy it if his human companion shared his interest in running or hiking. He sleeps in a crate here at the rescue and does well with keeping it clean. It’s recommended he have one in the home as he does enjoy having a place to retreat to for a mid day nap. He has several buddies he loves to romp around with and would enjoy dog parks or going to doggy day care once he adjust to his new family and environment. Maxwell could also have another large dog in the home to play with but it is not a requirement. He is a little shy when you first meet him but warms up quickly with some treats! This boy is highly food motivated and would do great with positive reinforcement training. He enjoys puzzle toys and lick mats as well. Maxwell is such a sweetheart once you get to know him. How do I act when I first meet new people?  Maxwell has been calm and welcoming to every person that he’s met. He can be timid at first, but warms up very quickly with treats. Other tips and tidbits: Maxwell is estimated at 4 years old. We celebrate his birthday as 09/29/2018. House trained?

Adopted from the shelter at 3 years old. Scooter is now 9 years old and a very loving and good dog. His favorite thing is to cuddle with you and be around people. Unfortunately, the kids are getting older, the adults are out and working, and it’s not fair to him to be home alone all day long. He loves attention and will follow you everywhere. He is older so his joints limit his stair climbing abilities which is another reason he would love a one-story house (which we cannot provide as well). It would warm our hearts if Scooter could find a loving owner that could take care of him with his basic needs of love, treats, and pets. Thank you in advance for considering.

Turbo is a big dog with a bigger personality. Turbo likes his live a certain way, which is mainly a ball to play with, a person to be with, and a nice bed to lay on. He is tolerant of other dogs, and can definitely go to a house with the right fur siblings, but he is more interested in living the calm life. His size really doesn’t match his temperament, as he is one of the calmest dogs at the shelter. It won’t take him long to catch on to your home routine, and once he has it down, your day to day life with Turbo should be very easy. He prefers calmer dogs around his size, and no small kids or animals. He is a dog that won’t change your lifestyle very much once you take him home!

Hey! My name is Penny and I am looking for my forever home. My friends at the shelter describe me as calm and loving. After a short walk I am content to hop up on my bench and take a nice, long nap. I take treats gently and am very easy to leash up. For some reason I do not like cats and would need to go to a home without cats. Some dogs are ok with me but others I don`t like as much. It is hard to say if I will like my protentional dog sibling or not, but don`t worry, you can bring them by the shelter and I can decide for myself when I meet them. A more calm dog with a soft approach seems to be more up my alley. I have a lot of love to give and just want the right family to give it to!

Hello! I’m Saint, a Retriever mixed breed dog. I have been described as friendly, loving, protective, adventurous, and doting. Some of my favorite things to do are bury treats and mark my territory on walks. I’m not a huge fan of toys or treats, but I love playing with people! I know the commands sit and leave it. I would like to learn more commands too! My ideal home would have dogs that are on the more gentle and dainty side because I`m just learning how to play. I`m a little shy when it comes to meeting news dogs, but I warm up quickly. I would love to go on a couple walks or runs a day too! I look forward to meeting you soon!
