Story
Meet Gracie Loo — a 3‑year‑old, 38‑lb Poodle mix with a gentle heart and a beautifully calm spirit!   Quick Facts: Name: Gracie Loo Breed: Poodle Mix Age: 3 years old Weight: 38 lbs. House-Trained: Yes Crate-Trained: Yes Good with Dogs: Yes (just resource guards her food – so she should be fed separately) Good with Cats: Yes Good with Kids: Not tested (but likely fine with school-aged kids) Energy Level: Medium Fence Required: No   About Gracie Loo’s Breed: Our best guess is that Gracie Loo is a Poodle Mixed Breed. Poodle mixes are known for being bright, affectionate, and wonderfully adaptable companions. They often inherit the Poodle’s intelligence and eagerness to learn, paired with the temperament of their other breed mix — which can make them playful, gentle, or delightfully goofy. Many Poodle mixes are low‑shedding, people‑oriented, and quick to bond with their families, making them great fits for a wide range of homes.   Their ideal home is one that offers consistent companionship, mental stimulation, and regular walks. Because they’re smart and sensitive, they thrive with positive reinforcement and a calm, predictable routine. Whether living with a single person, a couple, or a family, Poodle mixes do best in households where they’re included in daily life and given opportunities to learn, explore, and feel connected.   What to Love about Gracie Loo: Gracie Loo is a very sweet, intelligent girl who learns quickly and loves to make her humans happy! She enjoys playtime, has great manners, and absolutely loves going on long walks where she can stretch her legs and explore.   She’s already potty trained and crate trained, though she doesn’t need a crate when left alone — she’s respectful, relaxed, and trustworthy in the home. Gracie Loo does have some mild resource guarding around food, so she prefers to be fed separately, but she’s otherwise incredibly gentle and sweet with everyone she meets! She hasn’t met kids yet, but her calm nature suggests she’d likely do well with school‑aged children.   Gracie Loo gets along wonderfully with other dogs and cats — she’s friendly, polite, and has excellent play manners. She doesn’t require a fenced yard, but she has a medium energy level and loves her daily walks. She’s fantastic on a leash and is an easygoing companion who fits beautifully into a variety of homes.   Gracie Loo is ready to bring her sweetness, smarts, and gentle charm to a forever family who will adore her as much as she’ll adore them. She’s the kind of dog who makes every day feel a little softer and a lot more joyful!   Gracie Loo’s Gorgeous Highlights: 3‑year‑old, 38‑lb Poodle mix with a sweet, gentle personality Smart and quick‑learning girl who picks up new routines easily Playful and loves long walks — great medium‑energy companion Respectful, calm house manners and trustworthy when left alone Potty trained and crate trained Has mild food‑related resource guarding and prefers to be fed separately Sweet with all people and likely great with school‑aged kids Gets along well with dogs and cats — friendly and polite Excellent on a leash and enjoys daily outings Easygoing, gentle playmate ready to fit seamlessly into a loving home   Comprehensive details are provided in the dog's description. to ensure a smooth process, please submit a completed application through our website at: http://crisisdogsnc.org/dog-adoption/. Please note that questions via email or social media channels may not receive a response without a completed application. As part of our commitment to responsible adoption practices, we require excellent veterinarian references and conduct virtual home visits. Additionally, your prior or current dog must be on year-round heartworm prevention. We assist with coordinating transportation by both land and air whenever feasible. All assessments regarding breed and age are conducted by licensed veterinarians. We look forward to assisting you in finding your perfect canine companion!May 13, 2026, 5:48 pm

Looking for your next furry BFF?   We don’t have perfect dogs — but we do have dogs who are perfect for the right someone. Our goal is to match each dog with the home that fits them best and each home with the dog that will sing to your heart. Ready to adopt? Complete an application at www.carolinapoodlerescue.org/application   Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet, SC Weight: 57 lbs Height: 24 in Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $699  Fence needed? Yes - Cooper has never lived without a fenced in yard. He requires a physically fenced yard with fencing 4 feet or taller. Want To Know More About Me? Text Cooper to 864-441-9075 for my full story and photos - we'll send everything you need to know! Here's Your Quick Peek: Cooper is a beautiful 3-year-old Standard Poodle with a gentle soul and a bright personality just waiting to shine. At first, Cooper presents as soft, thoughtful, and a bit reserved as he takes in the world around him. He likes to observe, assess, and feel safe before fully settling in - but once he does, his true personality comes out.  Please note - if you want to skip the text and go straight to the application, you can find the link here: www.carolinapoodlerescue.org/application/ Must have: A home with another friendly dog would be ideal for Cooper, though an adopter with rescue experience who is committed to providing regular, positive dog interactions outside the home could also be a great match.  Exercise: High. Cooper is bouncy, happy and playful when he is comfortable. He'd love to be a hiking companion. Best with: An experienced rescuer. Cooper has never lived in a home. You will teach him everything. Not ideal for: Road warriors. Cooper is currently petrified of the car. Energy level: Once he is comfortable, Cooper is high energy. In his early days in your home he may seem much lower energy than what he is. Cooper is looking for a calm, stable, and predictable home where he can settle in at his own pace.  Good with dogs: Yes, though he is not a fan of pushy or overwhelming dogs Good with kids: Likely no. Loud or constantly changing environments may be overwhelming for him. Cats: We aren't sure - if you have a cat let us know and we can test him. Fun fact: Cooper is a bit like a bait and switch. The dog you meet versus the dog you live with for a few weeks is night and day. Behind the shy shell is a fun dog. Potential Adopters   Dogs can’t drive - and since we’re busy taking care of them, we can’t either! Please check your potential BFF’s location and make sure you’re comfortable traveling to meet them.

Text Cinnamon to 864-441-9075 for my full story and photos - we'll send everything you need to know! Here's Your Quick Peek: Meet Cinnamon, the standard poodle puppy who's learning how to puppy. Leash training. House training. Basic commands. Cinnamon is ready for it all. Please note - if you want to skip the text and go straight to the application, you can find the link here: www.carolinapoodlerescue.org/application/ Must have: Another friendly, well-adjusted dog already present to help guide her. Canine companionship isn’t just a bonus for her - it’s truly what helps her thrive. Exercise: High. Standard poodle puppies need LOTS of physical and mental stimulation every day. Best with: Routine, consistency and patience. Not ideal for: A home with younger children. Cinnamon would be most successful in a home with older, respectful teens (15+) who understand how to interact gently with a more sensitive puppy. Energy level: High - Cinnamon is a puppy. Cinnamon is all puppy, but not your normal puppy. She hasn't been well socialized or trained in her early months. You will teach her everything. Good with dogs: Yes, she needs another one in the home Good with kids: Ideally kids that are over 10 and have been raised with dogs Cats: Definitely not - Cinnamon is too interested and will pursue them relentlessly.

Yes, absolutely. Want To Know More About Me? Text Layla to 864-441-9075 for my full story and photos - we'll send everything you need to know! Here's Your Quick Peek: Layla is from a backyard breeder, and it has left its mark on her. She is a sweet but girl but she does not trust easily. She will take time and patience to come around. Please note - if you want to skip the text and go straight to the application, you can find the link here: www.carolinapoodlerescue.org/application/ Must have: Another dog, a family with rescue dog experience, fenced in yard, time and patience a family that is home more often than not.

Best with: Other dogs, gentle slow approach from the side, calm quiet environment Not ideal for: Families with children, first time dog owners, families with other nervous or skittish dogs. Energy level: High once she breaks the ice.  We want to be honest. Layla may always be a nervous dog. She's got a sensitive stomach we are still figuring out, and she has a long road until she is a "normal" dog. And she maybe never be the idea of a "normal house pet." But she is sweet and she is trying. She needs a family with another dog and experience with dogs like her.  Good with dogs: Yes, a must in her life. Good with kids: We would not recommend Layla to a family with children. Cats: Layla has never lived with cats. If you have them, let us know and we can test her.

Story
Major is a handsome male poodle mix, about 4 years old and weighing 65 lbs. He`s very friendly and eager for love and attention. He enjoys taking walks and riding in the car. He is house trained and good in a crate/kennel but may need a little time to adapt to the routines in a new home. He is affectionate, responsive, and eager to please!Major has been very good with other dogs in his foster home. Due to his size and playfulness, he would probably be best with older children. He has shown some keen interest in cats, so he would need some supervision with them to begin. A home with a large, physically fenced yard would be ideal.Major came to us with a mild case of a condition called entropion. His eyelids roll inward a bit, causing irritation to his eyes. Our vet says it’s a borderline case that might be managed with ointment, but surgery is also an option. And, like all doodles, he will need regular grooming. So, he`s looking for a family that is able to invest in his health and care. You will be repaid with a lifetime of love and fun!Major is neutered and up to date on all vaccines and preventatives. If you are interested in adopting Major, please apply here: https://humanesocietyofwilkes.org/adopt/application. If you have questions about Major and the adoption process, please contact his foster home at blairhsow@gmail.com. Meetings are arranged after an application has been approved.
