Story
Lily is 5 months old. She is shy at first, but once she warms up she’s a total sweetheart. She loves attention, cuddles, and loves playing with her toys, especially when you join in. She’s a perfect mix of gentle playful and affectionate. She gets along with our other dog and loves to play with him. She’s good at not going to the bathroom in the house as long as she is taken outside about every 5 hours. Life happened and unfortunately it’s become difficult to afford taking care of another puppy. We’re looking for a person or family to give her the love and attention that she deserves and I know she’ll give it right back. We’ll include the crate, playpen, beds, pee pads, toys, and food.

Story
  Meet Milo — the kind of dog people dream about and hope to find.  This gorgeous Apricot Doodle, weighing 55 pounds and 4 years young, is the total package and ready to bring joy to a new family. Milo has been with his family since puppyhood, and as life changed and children came along, they realized that Milo deserves more time and attention than they can give. It’s a loving, thoughtful decision made with Milo’s best interests at heart — because there is truly nothing lacking in this wonderful boy. Milo is fantastic with young children, housebroken, crate trained, and has a calm, well-mannered personality that makes him an ideal family companion. He’s the kind of dog who settles easily, loves being included, and just wants to belong.   Critter Cavalry Rescue will be helping Milo find the perfect match and will be making sure he is neutered and fully up-to-date on vet care on 1/14. From there, he’s ready to step right into a lucky family’s life and become someone’s best friend. Trust us — someone is going to hit the jackpot with Milo.  To learn more, please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com   PLEASE NOTE:  Our dogs are transported from Tennessee to meeting places in the states where we have posted.  Further information about us is given on our Adopt-A-Pet site.  The adoption fees vary and will be provided as well as noted on the application you receive.  Contact us at 615-661-5333 or ccrnewengland@gmail.comJanuary 12, 2026, 9:04 pm

Story
Meet Snowball! Snowball is a 3-year-old Doodle mix who is fully vaccinated and ready to find his forever home. Snowball is a good boy who has experienced some inconsistency in his life, and because of that, he’s looking for a patient, understanding home that will give him the time and space he needs to settle in. Following the 3-3-3 rule will be important to help Snowball adjust and truly show his personality. He does best with slow, proper introductions to other dogs, though he would also be perfectly happy being the only dog in the home. A cat-free home is a must for Snowball. With time, structure, and a chance to feel secure, Snowball has the potential to be a wonderful, loyal companion for the right family. If you are interested in adopting Snowball, please submit an inquiry directly to Greater Charlotte SPCA by visiting charlottespca.org/adopt. The adoption amount is a suggested donation of $200 to $300 dollars based on the pet's age.   **Because our rescue is composed entirely of volunteers, local applications will take precedence. We will accept out of town applications, but any family is responsible for coming to Charlotte to complete a meet and greet. All out of town applicants will also have to be willing to drive to Charlotte to pick up the pet as soon as they are approved to adopt. ** January 13, 2026, 7:43 pm

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: 12/16/25 Reason for being in rescue: Surrendered by owners Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet SC Special Needs? Jackson is neutered, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative. On 12/17/25, Jackson had surgery to correct entropion in both eyes. He has recovered and is ready for his forever home.  Weight: 67 lbs Height: 24 in Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $699 Fence needed? Yes, Jackson requires a physically fenced yard with fencing 4 feet or taller. What kind of home would be best for me? Jackson loves to play and does best with dogs who can match his size and energy. He enjoys active canine companionship and thrives when he has room to romp and burn off his joyful poodle energy. He’s a people-lover through and through and has a naturally affectionate, friendly spirit. Jackson adores attention and would be thrilled to have kids in the home to love on him. Whether he’s soaking up the sunshine outdoors or leaning in close for affection, Jackson gives his whole heart to the people around him. Jackson would be perfectly happy as your one-and-only dog, soaking up all the attention, or sharing his home with another large dog who enjoys active play. At heart, he’s a loving, loyal companion who thrives on connection. What is my personality like? Meet Jackson, a big red Standard Poodle whose vibrant personality matches his gorgeous coat. Jackson is the perfect balance of fun-loving energy and cozy affection- just as happy sprinting across the yard as he is settling in beside you for some quality cuddle time. If you’re looking for a dog who brings both excitement and warmth into your home, Jackson fits the bill. Jackson does well on a leash and enjoys heading out for walks and adventures with his people. He is also clean in his crate and settles well when given structure and routine. However, Jackson does have a lot to say when his people leave - he’s been known to “sing the song of his people,” so for everyone’s comfort, he is best suited for a standalone home rather than shared-wall housing. If you’re searching for a big-hearted, playful, affectionate dog ready to join you for life’s adventures, Jackson is ready to bring joy, companionship, and plenty of personality into your home. How do I act when I first meet new people? Jackson is a happy, friendly boy who enjoys making new friends. Other tips and tidbits: We were told Jackson is 3 years old. We celebrate his birthday 12/17/22. 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. January 10, 2026, 3:45 pm

Cooper is neutered, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative. Cooper does have some dental tartar, as noted in his vet records. He will likely need a dental in the next 12-18 months. 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. What kind of home would be best for me? 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. While he is familiar with handling, Cooper is still new to the experience of living in a home. Everyday household life will be a learning process for him, and he will need patience, kindness, and steady guidance as he learns routines, house manners, and basic training while settling into an indoor environment. One important thing to know about Cooper is that he is currently very afraid of the car. This is an area where he will need an adopter who is dedicated to helping him build positive associations through calm, consistent, and gentle exposure. Avoiding car rides altogether will not help Cooper overcome this fear - he needs someone willing to work with him patiently, celebrate small wins, and make the experience a safe and reassuring one. Cooper is looking for a calm, stable, and predictable home where he can settle in at his own pace. Loud or constantly changing environments may be overwhelming for him, and he will thrive best in a peaceful setting with understanding humans who allow him the time he needs to feel secure. What is my personality like? Cooper is a beautiful 3-year-old white 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. Cooper becomes bouncy, happy, and playful, showing off his joyful side and reminding you just how much fun a poodle can be. Cooper does well with other dogs and feels most confident around calm, polite canine companions. He is not a fan of pushy or overwhelming dogs, but he absolutely benefits from having another steady dog around to help guide him and boost his confidence. Cooper has been routinely groomed and is at ease being handled and standing on the grooming table, so maintaining his coat should be a smooth and stress-free part of his care. How do I act when I first meet new people? Cooper need just a little time to settle in and then you have the sweetest boy who loves to smile and wag his tail at you just because you live.  Other tips and tidbits: We do not know Cooper's exact Birthdate. We celebrate his Birthday as 2/19/2022. 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.

Bentley is neutered, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative. Bentley does have some dental tartar, as noted in his vet records. He will likely need a dental in the next 12-18 months. Weight: 61.7 lbs Height: 24 in Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $699 Fence needed? Yes - Bentely has never lived without a fenced in yard and needs leash training. Bentley requires a physically fenced yard with fencing 4 feet or taller. What kind of home would be best for me? Bentley is looking for a calm, mellow, and predictable home environment where he can settle in at his own pace. Loud or constantly changing surroundings may be overwhelming for him, and he will need time to adjust and feel secure in his new space. With a peaceful home, understanding adopters, and a steady routine, Bentley has all the potential to blossom into a devoted, affectionate companion who will reward your patience with quiet loyalty and love.  Bentley would truly thrive in a home with another dog, as he gains confidence by following the lead of more social companions. However, an experienced home familiar with timid or rescue dogs could also be a great fit, provided he continues to have regular, positive interactions with other dogs outside the home. What is my personality like? Bentley is a 3-year-old, 60-pound Standard Poodle with a gentle spirit and a warm, happy smile that instantly draws you in. Sweet and kind by nature, Bentley carries himself with a quiet confidence and a calm presence that makes him easy to be around and easy to love. He does well with other dogs and is comfortable holding his own, though he prefers polite, respectful canine companions and is not a fan of overly pushy dogs. While he often looks to other dogs for reassurance, Bentley is also capable of exploring and building confidence independently once he feels safe. Bentley has been groomed regularly throughout his life and does very well on the grooming table, making routine care a smooth and stress-free experience.  How do I act when I first meet new people? As Bentley has never truly lived life as a household pet, everything about being in a home will be new to him. He will need time, patience, and gentle guidance to understand what it means to live indoors, follow daily routines, and learn basic house manners and training. Other tips and tidbits: Bentley's birthday is 07/24/2022. 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.
