Story
Gigi is a 6‑month‑old, 20‑lb Doodle mix with all the sweetness, bounce, and joy you’d expect from a young pup who loves life and everyone in it!   Quick Facts: Name: Gigi Breed: Doodle Mix Age: 6 months old Weight: 20 lbs. House-Trained: 90% there! Crate-Trained: Yes (shouldn’t be left too long in a crate though due to her age) Good with Dogs: Yes (she would love active, playful doggie playmates!) Good with Cats: Yes (she likes to play with the cats in her foster home) Good with Kids: Yes – likely best with older, school aged kids who she can’t knock over with her bounciness) Energy Level: Very High Fence Required: No (but will need plenty of exercise) Dog’s Location: Fremont, NC   About Gigi’s Breed: Our best guess is that Gigi is a Poodle “Doodle” mixed breed. The “Doodle” is typically a bright, social, and affectionate dog with a fun blend of intelligence and playful energy. They’re often quick learners with expressive personalities, and many love being included in family activities, outdoor adventures, and anything that keeps their minds and bodies engaged. Their mix of Poodle smarts and the temperament of their other breed often creates a dog who is both people‑oriented and eager to participate in daily life.   Their ideal home is one that offers consistent exercise, mental enrichment, and plenty of companionship, since Doodle‑type mixes thrive when they’re active and connected to their people. They do especially well with families who enjoy training, exploring, and maintaining predictable routines. With structure, patience, and opportunities for play and adventure, a Doodle mix becomes a joyful, devoted, and wonderfully engaging family companion.   What to Love about Gigi: Gigi’s playful, social, and happiest when she has another active dog or older kids to romp around with, making her a fantastic match for an energetic, adventure‑ready family! Gigi adores other dogs and would thrive with a canine sibling who can keep up with her enthusiasm. She’s also great with cats, though her playful nature means dog‑savvy cats are the best fit. As a typical puppy, she’s still learning her leash manners and tends to pull because she’s excited to go, go, go — but she’s eager to learn and loves being included in whatever her people are doing!   She’s doing wonderfully with her potty training for her age and just needs continued patience and consistency, she’s 90% there! Gigi is crate trained, though she shouldn’t be left for long stretches because she gets sad when her people leave and wants to be part of the fun. She doesn’t require a fenced yard as long as she gets plenty of exercise, but she would absolutely love one to run and play in. With her friendly nature, love for all people, and joyful puppy energy, Gigi is ready to become the perfect family companion for a home that’s excited to guide her, love her, and take her on all of life’s adventures!   Gigi’s Glorious Highlights: Playful puppy energy — loves to run, romp, and play with active dogs Dog‑social sweetheart — thrives with another young, energetic canine sibling Kid‑friendly companion — great with older kids who can handle her enthusiastic bounce Cat‑friendly player — does well with dog‑savvy cats who enjoy gentle play Adventure‑ready girl — perfect for an active family who loves outings and exploring Working on leash manners — pulls from excitement but eager to learn Potty‑training progress — doing great for her age with continued consistency Crate trained cutie — settles in her crate but prefers not to be left too long Fence optional — doesn’t require a yard but would love one to zoom around in Loves everyone she meets — friendly, outgoing, and has never met a stranger   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!June 11, 2026, 10:51 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 Farm, Pacolet SC Weight: ~40 lbs Height: 24 inches at the shoulder. Spayed/Neutered: Yes, Penny is spayed. Adoption Fee: $699 Fence needed? No — Penny can jump 6‑ft fences and MUST be supervised outdoors. She will break out to follow you. Want To Know More About Me? Text PENNY to 864â€𣠡†for my full story, photos, and videos — we’ll send everything you need to know! If you want to skip straight to the application: www. carolinapoodlerescue.org/application/ Here’s Your Quick Peek: Penny is a young, athletic, high‑energy standard poodle who came to CPR as a stray from Lexington County Animal Shelter. She’s affectionate, playful, and incredibly smart — but she needs structure, supervision, and an experienced adopter who understands high‑drive dogs. Must have: An active, adult‑only home; someone home often; no small animals; no children; strong supervision; secure environment. Exercise: High — she needs daily physical and mental outlets. Best with: Active adults; large, stable dogs (optional); someone who enjoys training and engagement. Not ideal for: Small dogs, cats, children, elderly adopters, apartments, or homes with shared walls. Energy level: Very high — athletic, busy, and always ready to move. Penny has separation anxiety and can become destructive when left alone. She has also learned how to break out of crates, so she cannot be crated unsupervised. She is not good with small dogs or small animals and has a strong prey drive. Penny is friendly with adults but her strength and enthusiasm can be overwhelming for kids or elderly individuals. Good with dogs: Yes — but only large dogs; no small dogs. Good with kids: We would not recommend Penny to a home with young children. 15+ Cats: No. Fun fact: Penny can clear a 6‑ft fence like it’s nothing — she’s an athlete through and through, and she’ll keep you laughing with her goofy, expressive personality. 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.

Good with dogs,
Story
Meet Big Milo, a goofy, sweet-natured giant who is guaranteed to bring a smile to your face! This lovable boy is highly motivated by treats and technically knows his basic commands—though his version of a "sit" comes with a hilarious side of impatience as he eagerly awaits his snack. Milo is a total people-person who thrives on human interaction, but when it comes to other dogs, he prefers his personal space. If a hyper pup runs up too fast, Milo’s go-to move is to let out a quick bark and gracefully trot away. He is an incredibly loyal companion at heart; whenever he feels unsure or overwhelmed by a situation, he will instantly loop back to his person to check in, bringing himself right to your side and sitting down for reassurance. While he might be a little forgetful about his training when he gets excited, his deep desire to be your faithful, goofy sidekick makes him absolutely unforgettable.

Story
We rescued Kobee when he was 1.5 years old. He was crate trained and we had continued that until we realized, Kobee is a great housebroken dog. We got rid of the crate and he is the king of the castle. Kobee absolutely loves company, especially kids but he will also enjoy a day in front of the storm door or open windows. He loves to look outside and listen to noises, however, he doesn't like to be outside for long periods of time by himself. When outside, he gallups like a miniature horse. Kobee is a great companion that loves belly rubs, your couch or bed as well as nap time. Ready to take a trip, what joy you'll bring. And don't forget to get him a pup cup or he will whine. He loves meated doggy bones. Kobee is always a happy dog and ready to bring that same joy into someone else's life. Kobee needs a family, no matter the age and children, that is just as loving as he is. We don't have a fence but we use a 50 foot tether to allow him to run and play outdoors.

Story
We had a poodle that went into heat before we were able to get her fixed and she ended up having a litter of pups, which I have been trying to get rid of for the last year with no success. I was initially charging an adoption fee but I need them gone asap so i’m willing to let them go at no charge. These dogs have been raised outdoors so they will need some house training. With that being said, she’s a year old. Very sweet and playful when you bring her indoors she gets shy/nervous so she’ll just lay down in a corner. With lots of love, patience and dedication she definitely has the potential to make a lovely indoor furbaby!
