Story
Meet this handsome young boy, Bogart. Bogart is typical shih-tzu with all that personality! He of course likes to be in charge. He is two years old and 20 pounds. He is looking for a family who understands his breed, no small children, and possibly another doggie to play with. If you think he might be the boy for you, then please continue to read and fill out our online application. RECOMMENDATIONS & PROCEDURES Please note, the following are recommendations for puppies and different breeds of dogs. We will evaluate each application on an individual basis to see what is best for the dog/puppy and the potential adopter. Puppies are very fragile and not toys. We recommend children be at least six years old to be considered to adopt a puppy. Small breed dogs ( such as chihuahuas, yorkies, shih tzus , etc) we recommend children be at least eight years old. Herding, working breeds we recommend children to be at least 12 years old. Again these are recommendations. Adoption Procedures: We will travel up to two hours ( one way) to do physical home visits and we do not do virtual home visits. Most of our dogs come from bad situations and we want to know where their forever home is going to be. While we do not require fencing on all dogs, certain dogs that need a fenced in yard, will not be adopted unless potential adopter has one. We also adopt some dogs to people who live in apartments ( as long as the landlord approves) but not all dogs. We do not adopt to anyone under 21 years of age. We also do not feel college students are the best fit for most of our dogs. Most of our dogs again, come from bad situations and need lots of attention. Most college students have financial responsibilities and we feel need to be focused on school. Our goal is to match the dog with a family that fits the dog’s needs. We are solely focused on what is best for each dog in our rescue. These dogs have had enough moving around, dumped out like trash, and we want to ensure they find their forever home. We do require you sign a contract and if at any time you cannot continue to provide for the dog, the dog comes back to the rescue. Your first step to adoption is filling our our on line application. You will then get an automated email stating we got your application Next our adoption coordinator will be in touch either by phone or email If your references check out, a home visit will be scheduled. After the home visit is done, a meet and greet with the dog you are interested in and/or any other available dogs we have will be scheduled If the dog and you are a match, contract will be signed and you may take your new family member home.

Story
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: 01/08/25 Reason for being in rescue: Released to a local independent rescuer by the owner who is having to move into assisted living, rescuer partnered with CPR to place her with us to find her forever home Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet SC Special Needs? Nova is spayed, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative Weight: 18 lbs est Height: 12 in Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $349 Fence needed? While a fenced-in yard isn’t a must, Nova would certainly love a safe outdoor space to play and enjoy some fresh air. What kind of home would be best for me? Nova will thrive in a variety of living situations, whether in a house or apartment. She’ll fit right into any household—whether you're a single person, a couple, or a family. If you have kids, she would do best with children aged 10 and up who can be gentle and respectful. Nova would also be happy with another dog, as long as they’re calm and not overly energetic. However, she would likely prefer to be the only dog, so she can be the center of your world! Nova is a total lovebug! She adores people and gets along well with other dogs that are calm and respectful. While she hasn’t interacted with cats yet, she shows no signs of aggression, and if your cats are comfortable with her, she’s sure to be just fine. If you are looking for a little package overflowing with love, Nova is the girl for you! What is my personality like? Say hello to Nova, a sweet and loving Shih Tzu girl who is eagerly searching for her forever home. Nova came to us as an owner surrender, and she's used to living in a loving home where she’s cherished. Now, she’s ready to find her new family! Nova is an affectionate little companion who loves to be around people. She enjoys spending time with you and will let you know if you’re not giving her enough attention—she’ll gently place her front paws on your leg, as if saying, “Hey, I’m down here! I need some love!” Her favorite place in the world is in your lap, and if she can’t get there, she’ll happily settle next to you on the couch. Though we’re still learning if she knows commands or how well she walks on a leash, Nova is eager to please and should pick up on training quickly. Spending time working with her will not only help her learn but also create a strong bond between you. How do I act when I first meet new people? Loving. Nova will eagerly approach you for pets and will jump into your lap if you allow it. Expect her to jump up and place her front paws on your legs as her way of saying, “Hey, I’m down here and I need your attention and loving.” She simply loves being close to you! Other tips and tidbits: We don't know Nova's exact birthdate.  Her owner did not, either.  Records at her previous vet show an estimated birthdate of 11/23/2017. 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. January 22, 2025, 9:08 am

Story
Teddy is a sweet senior who turned up at a local shelter as a stray.  We think he is about 10yrs old.  Teddy is visually impaired, but doesn't let that stop him from getting around.  He is still adjusting to his foster home and as he settles in he gets comfortable cuddling.  Teddy is good with other dogs and cats.  Due to his age and vision, we don't recommend a home with very young children.  He his working on his housetraining as he continues to acclimate to his new foster home.  Finding himself in the shelter at his age has been tough on Teddy - he will need an adopter who is willing to let him adjust to his new environment.  Your patience will be rewarded with a new best friend.     Applications can be filled out at www.piedmontanimalrescue.com/adopt!  Petfinder and Adopt-A-Pet does NOT send us Applications.   We receive many applications and many never respond after processing GREATLY delaying the pets forever home.  Please only apply if you are serious about adopting.  Please also make sure your pets are up to date on you species applicable Vaccines (rabies, Distemper/Parvo, FVRCP, Bordetella), spayed/neutered, and on Heartworm prevention if a canine.   The adoption fee includes their age appropriate vaccinations(DA2PP and Bordetella), Dewormer, spay/neuter, microchip, heartworm test as well as the registration of their microchip information to you. The first step to adopting is to fill out an application for adoption. Once approved we will arrange a time for you to meet the animal you are interested in. If it is a match the adoption can then be completed and you can take home your new furry family member. If it is not a match we will file your approved application and you can wait till you find the perfect match. ##2264982##
