Posh is neutered, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative. On 02/09/22 Posh had entropion repair on his lower eyelid. He also had a dental polishing and a deep ear cleaning. Posh can be prone to ear infections. Keeping his ears clean is imperative.  Weight: 45 lbs Height: 24 in Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $599 Fence needed? Yes What kind of home would be best for me? Posh is an active dog that has had a lot of change over the last 8 months. He needs stability and patience and continued socialization. Posh is an alpha male and needs an owner that will commit to positive reinforcement training and redirection of behaviors. Posh prefers women to men so an alpha female owner is his ideal home. Posh could live with other dogs (he always has) or be the only dog. Posh is not good with children and will not be placed in a home with children. He requires SLOW introductions to new people. What is my personality like? Posh and his brother Hans were the beloved companions of a single professional. Sadly, significant health challenges made caring for Posh impossible and he was surrendered to rescue to help him find the right forever home.  Posh's owner describes him as a a big, happy love bug - he thinks he is a toy poodle lap dog! He loves to give big hugs and kisses. Posh is not fond of the vet or of grooming but with lots of gentle persuasion it can be managed.  Here is what our caregivers say about this beautiful boy. Posh is a sweet boy that is looking for a mama. The reason I say “mama” is because posh takes direction from women very easily where as he is a little slower to warm up with men. He needs someone that can keep him in line. He is all boy! Posh does well with other dogs; he enjoys the company of dogs his size. Occasionally when he’s over stimulated you’ll have to correct him and let him know he’s being a little too much. Posh is not the best with strangers - you have to buy this boy's love with treats and patience. He does not appreciate being approached without permission and will let you now his displeasure. Posh slightly pulls on a leash and will need some leash training. He would excel at any type of positive reinforcement training as he is very intelligent. Posh loves belly rubs and does very good about keeping his crate clean. It is required posh have a crate in the home this will help his transition to a new environment as well as give him a place to retreat to when he’s feeling overwhelmed. How do I act when I first meet new people? A little timid, but incredibly treat motivated Other tips and tidbits: Posh is 3.5 years old. We celebrate his birthday as 2/1/2019. 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.

Jules Verne is a very special boy with a very congenital brain disorder called polymircogyria. This condition has only been reported in 4 canines (all Standard Poodles) and few cattle. Some of the symptoms accompanied with Jules’ condition include vision impairment, some hearing loss, loss of sense of balance, loss of motor skills, and (sometimes) very fast, sudden, uncontrollable movements of the limbs. Due to this condition he is vision impaired and only hears high pitched sounds. He is neutered and up to date on vaccines. If you are considering welcoming this special boy into your home, please do your research on this condition in dogs. We will also happily discuss all that we know with you and share detailed medical reports from the neurologists that have seen Jules Verne and diagnosed him. Weight: 42 lbs Height: 24 in Spayed/Neutered: No Adoption Fee: $1 - I am priceless Fence needed? Yes, Jules requires a physically fenced yard with fencing 4 feet or taller What kind of home would be best for me? There are dogs that are special, and then there is Jules Verne. He is one of only 4 known diagnosed cases of his brain disorder. Lack of vision and hearing do not slow him down - he is the happiest, most playful boy you will meet. There is simply nothing better than watching Jules Verne play and live his best life! We are looking for a home that will understand and appreciate Jules Verne for who he is. His normal will always look different than other dogs. He would be happy with another large female dog, or as your only pet. No small dogs or cats please. Jules Verne wants a home where he can play, enjoy a fenced yard, and where someone will appreciate his uniqueness and recognize the beauty it creates. He is not well suited for a home with children. What is my personality like? Jules Verne. What a boy! Jules was rehomed for free from his breeder as a puppy part of a difficult birth and and a mom that wouldn't nurse. The family that welcomed him quickly realized something was not "normal". Their standard poodle puppy was wobbly, didn't seem to be able to be seen, and was just off. Over a month he only seemed to get worse and was ultimately diagnosed by their vet as having suspected brain lesions. The vet recommended euthanasia. The family was overwhelmed and reached out to rescue for help. Upon arrival in rescue, we recognized that Jules was definitely vision impaired and also hearing impaired. He only hears high pitched sounds. His owners had suggested he may have seizures. So we set out on a journey to understand what we were working with. Our first effort was to rule out a liver shunt. Thankfully, Jules Verne's liver functions just fine. Next up was a neurology consult and MRI. The MRI revealed that Jules Verne has a rare, congenital brain disorder called polymicrogyria. This condition has been rarely described in dogs, but in humans the prognosis appears to be variable for each individual case. It can lead to seizures and behavioral changes over time. There are no other dogs quite like Jules Verne. Although Jules has a rare neurological condition that has greatly affected his brain since being in utero, this boy is as sweet as you could ever imagine to his people. Jules absolutely loves and adores the people he trusts the most. Once you and Jules spend enough time together, he will love you for as long as he lives. While Jules can coexist with other male dogs, he can be selective with the male dogs that he likes. He definitely prefers female canine companions over males. You can occasionally sneak a peek of Jules playing with his lady friends, and other times, you can catch him doing his own thing whether that be napping in the sun, sniffing everything out, or simply romping about by himself. Jules also absolutely LOVES toys; specifically durable rubber ones. He will eventually find a way to destroy each toy piece by piece, but is perfectly content receiving a brand new one to have fun with. Another thing about Jules is he has to have his safe space. His just so happens to be his crate. Jules will willingly go in and out of his crate as he pleases, though sometimes he could use a bit of help from his favorite human going in or coming out. Jules is always on the go, no matter the day, rain or shine. This boy has lots of energy on his good days, and can be a bit reserved on other days. Another thing about Jules, is that he LOVES food. Kibble, treats, snacks, anything that he deems good enough, is the key to this boys heart. Jules has no idea that he is different than all of the other dogs. From the people that know and love Jules, he is just as normal and quirky as any other canine. Once Jules considers you trustworthy and a relationship is created, Jules will show his sweet, loving, and affectionate demeanor to them. Jules is a very special boy who is loved by so so many, different or not. In all reality, it’s Jules Vernes’ world, and we’re all just living in it. How do I act when I first meet new people?

He was surrendered immediately.  Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet SC Special Needs? Romeo is neutered, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative. On 7/5/23 Romeo had a dental polishing. Romeo walks differently than most dogs. We've had radiographs completed and exam and found nothing physically wrong. Our vet noted that he has under developed femoral muscles that may be affecting his gait. Romeo has allergies and eats a restricted limited AG diet. His skin will relapse very quickly if he eats something that he is allergic to - It manifests as diffuse skin infections. Romeo has suspected cervical spondylopathy. Cervical vertebral instability (CVI) or spondylomyelopathy (CSM) is a collection of abnormalities usually involving the caudal cervical vertebrae of large-breed dogs.  Weight: 68 lbs Height: 26 in Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $1 - I am priceless! Fence needed? No What kind of home would be best for me? Given his history, we're looking for an adults-only home for Romeo. He is good with other dogs, male and female, big and small, but still prefers his people over canines. He would do fine as an only dog receiving all of the attention, but would also be good with another dog in the home who is calm like he is and can show him the rules of your home.  What is my personality like? Romeo is a 6 year old male Standard Poodle/Golden Retriever and was brought to CPR as an owner release to a shelter in June of 2023. Romeo is a bit like a tale of 2 dogs. The owners who surrendered Romeo described a dog that has been on behavioral modification medicine (he isn't anymore) and a dog that had snapped at a child when a door was opened and the child tried to restrain him. We don't know any details of his home life or what circumstances may have led to this behavior, but this isn't the dog we have observed in rescue.  At our rescue, Romeo is a very fun loving, happy go lucky guy. He doesn’t know what a stranger is and is looking for attention anywhere he can get it. Romeo walks well on a leash, is crate trained, and is extremely eager to please. He knows basic commands including sit and shake. Romeo loves people more than anything, and needs a home where his family can give him constant attention and affection to keep him satisfied. While Romeo does enjoy going on adventures every now and then, he would prefer to be laid back and take things slowly. He is a moderate-low energy guy and doesn’t require lots of energy outlets or stimulation. Romeo loves water and is always down for a hike or adventure, as long as he can come back home and nap for the rest of the day. He wants to be with his people 24/7 and wants to go everywhere they go.  How do I act when I first meet new people? Friendly Other tips and tidbits: Romeo's exact birthdate is unknown.  We estimated it to be 6/10/2017.  We know the family who turned him in to the shelter had him for 4 years but we do not know if he was an adult when he first came to them.  House trained?

Loki is neutered, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative.  Weight: 57 lbs Height: 24 in Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $599 Fence needed? Yes, Loki requires a physically fenced yard with fencing 4 feet or taller. What kind of home would be best for me? Loki is looking for a kid-free, laid-back home. Loki thinks a home in a quiet neighborhood with walking trails nearby would be delightful to live in. Loki would happily spend hours sunbathing and roaming his backyard with a quiet retired couple. He is ideally looking for a home as an only dog simply because he loves to soak up all the attention. Loki does not enjoy being in a crate but does need to eat in a crate due to slight resource guarding of his food. This can absolutely be resolved with time and positive reinforcement training. His home will need to accept him despite this minor quirk, we encourage potential adopters to research on this before applying to adopt Loki. Loki is going to fall into place in any standard poodle lovers' home. What is my personality like? Loki is an utter lovebug. More often than not he is found hugging his caregivers. He adores being the center of attention. Loki is phenomenal on leash and would be an ideal strolling companion. Loki is great with dogs of his size; he frequently is caught playing with other standards. He would not be ideal for small dogs or cats frequently in the home but could walk past them on a leash in the neighborhood. Loki can be shy and uncertain with new strangers from time to time. Give him a few minutes to observe and then start offering treats to him. He warms up fast and once he does, there is no going back with his love. He gives unconditional love to his human and wants to have a forever bond with his very own family.  How do I act when I first meet new people? Shy at first but quickly warms up to someone who knows and understands dogs well.  Other tips and tidbits: Loki was estimated at 4.5 years old. We celebrate his birthday 7/19/2019. House trained?

Fletcher is neutered, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative. Weight: 50 lbs Height: 25 in at the shoulder Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $599 Fence needed? Yes, Fletcher requires a physically fenced yard with fencing 4 feet or taller. What kind of home would be best for me? Fletcher is the kind of dog that everyone would want by their fireplace - easygoing, happy, curious, and friendly. Not to mention he's beautiful. Fletcher doesn't think there's much to be bothered by in the world. It's all about the here and now. This boy's greatest joy in life is running as fast as he can to everywhere in our field, especially if you are right by his side. He would love to join you on a morning run or simply a leisurely stroll through the backyard. While Fletcher has never truly lived in a home, we think his disposition would be well-suited for a variety of living situations. Young, active professionals to traveling sunseekers would be fine with Fletcher. Fletcher's favorite activities include anything that can make his bond to you stronger. Helping you cook in the kitchen, cool! Walking the yard collect debris, he's down! You're going to the bathroom? He's going with you! Fletcher loves sharing your personal space bubble! Fletcher, though confident, would prefer another furry friend in the home. He loves to lead and is an exquisite leader. His furry companions follow him around all day long, looking to him for pointers and tips on how to just be a dog!  How do I act when I first meet new people? Fletcher is pleasantly surprised you stopped by and will promptly ask for pets after a good sniffing. He definitely loves to check you out before offering his plush curls for a pat. Fletcher walk into new situations with a confidence, and even in moments he is unsure he pushes forward determined to overcome everything once it is set before him.  Fletcher is a dog to its fullest and having lived the first years of his life as a breeding stud Fletcher loves to make sure everyone knows what is HIS. Fletcher does have an issue with marking indoor areas that a regularly frequented by other dogs. In our Adoption Center he will attempt to mark the walls or chairs. However we have tested him in our canteen/breakroom, a place where dogs seldom visit and he did not mark. We have begun teaching Fletcher to wear a belly band to help with this issue and lead him outside the moment he hikes up his leg. He is learning fast, but will need guidance on how to be a gentlemanly as his looks. Other tips and tidbits: We do not have an exact birthdate but were told Fletcher is about 3 years old.  He looks and acts like a 3-year-old. We've estimated his birthdate at around 1/15/2021.

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 1, 2024, 6:23 pm
