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

Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet SC

Height: 24 in
Spayed/Neutered: Yes
Adoption Fee: $599
Fence needed? Yes, Zach is a big boy and requires a yard with a physically fence four (4) feet tall or taller.
What kind of home would be best for me? Zack needs an active adopter that will help him expend his massive amount of energy. A family with older kids, late middle school to high school, that Zack could play in your yard with would be ideal. If he tires you out, toss out a toy or two in the backyard and watch him go! Hike, biking, and dog parks would be great exercise in addition to romping and playing in your yard. While Zack is extremely energetic, he is also a loving guy once he's calmed down after playtime. Zack needs a home with an experienced dog owner who is home most of the day and will provide him with all the love and playtime the big guy needs. He would probably do best as an only dog but would be good with another dog if it was calm and mellow.
What is my personality like? Zack lives to play. And play. And play some more. This big guy is basically a four-year-old puppy. Zack is a hyper dude that thinks every activity is a game and he's ready to join in that game. He will need training to learn that isn't the case. He MUST have time to romp and play. Zack does not walk well on a leash, so leash training is in order. Zack also needs to be taught basic commands like sit, stay, down, come, and the like. He is clean in his crate so potty training is simply a matter of getting on a schedule and taking him out at the same time every day. Zack barks in his crate and his caregivers are working to correct this behavior.
Zack is just a big, goofy, lovable, energetic, and athletic dog that loves all people and everyone that meets him loves him. Zack is good with big dogs; we are unsure about smaller dogs and cats. He enjoys playing with toys.
Zach knows his forever family is out there waiting for him. He longs to join them on any and all adventures they will embark upon. Zack can barely contain his excitement thinking about it. Come see Zack and you'll both soon embark upon an adventure you'll never forget.
How do I act when I first meet new people? Zack loves all people and thinks everyone is his playmate.
Other tips and tidbits: Zack was born on or about 9/6/2019.
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.
