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

What kind of home would be best for me? Tucker is such a cool, happy dude. He is equal parts mellow and playful, and looking for a home that is okay with both. Tucker would be best as the only dog. He is picky about his friends and will be the best as your only dog. Tucker does not appreciate high energy dogs or dogs getting into his face. Because of this he is not well suited for visiting dog parks. He cannot live with cats (indoor or outdoor). He'd be fine in an apartment or condo, or living in a home with a fenced yard. We do not know if Tucker has ever lived with children, but he has a demeanor well suited for children over 5.
What is my personality like? Tucker is a mellow mild energy boy with a heart of gold!! He is such a lover boy, just happy to be with his human. He will accept all the pets and kisses he can get. He is good with other dogs as long as the aren't all in his face and respect his personal space. Absolutely no cats!!
Tucker is clean in his crate and goes in easily after a treat. He doesn't know any commands but is food motivated and not a picky eater. A yard is not required for Tucker, he's so mellow, two walks around the neighborhood and maximum cuddles on the couch should suffice. He has been showing some resource guarding mainly to food and would need fed separately or in a crate to set him up for success. Tucker could go to many different types of homes, could live as an apartment dog even. He is polite on a leash and enjoys sniffing around.
Tucker is a wonderful boy who appreciates a mellow lifestyle. If you're looking for a chill buddy, he is a great companion!
How do I act when I first meet new people? Friendly
Other tips and tidbits: Tucker is estimated at 4 years old. We celebrate his birthday as 2/14/2018.
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.
