My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

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

Can’t have a dog of your own? Have a soft spot for old, sick, or hard-to-place dogs? It only takes a $20 a month donation for me to be your virtual dog!  I need at least 10 virtual adopters (sponsors) to help cover my monthly costs.  If I have medical challenges, I need even more!  The caregivers at Carolina Poodle Rescue will do the rest.  Just think, without ever having to leave your home, you can have your very own online dog that will send you updated emails, make Facebook posts, and be eternally grateful for your support!  Go to the donate link at the top of the page for instructions as to how to donate. Questions? Email: cprsosdogs@carolinapoodlerescue.org

I LOVE MY Virtual Adopters! I AM LOOKING FOR VIRTUAL ADOPTERS

Why am I with a rescue group? Mindy was born into rescue on 05/30/20 - her mother was found as a stray and surprised us with a litter of puppies. Mindy was adopted at 3 months old. She was brought back to our organization at a year old. The owners stated she was afraid of her own shadow, and they were unable to care for her anymore. Mindy has been back with us since November of 2021. Mindy is the only puppy out of the litter to be returned to us, weird genetics or not enough training as a puppy, we simply just don't know. We know the dog Mindy has shown us. She is odd and intricate. We love her all the same.

Mindy is a dog's dog. She loves other dogs and is happiest with nice easy-going dogs. Here at our farm, she is frequently seen playing with her pals and enjoying the sunshine. Mindy is all about water and loves to dog her paws in the water bowls after we fill them up with fresh water. She is weary of new caregivers and staff she doesn't see frequently. Mindy will bark and charge a barrier without hesitation if she does not know you. This barrier issue is also present with crates. With her primary caregivers, she is very affectionate and loving.  Mindy prefers women over men. She takes her time to adapt to men and women but more quickly acquaints to women. Mindy is very vocal and will bark at anything that makes her anxious.

Mindy will spend her days here at the farm, in an environment where she can set her boundaries and choose her caregivers. She is an under-confident dog and needs a special home that understands that. We are that home for Mindy. 

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.



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.
