Poodle puppies and dogs in Shelby, North Carolina

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: 2/9/2025 Reason for being in rescue: Breeder release Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet SC Special Needs? Dainty is spayed, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative. On 3/5/25 Dainty had an umbilical hernia repaired. Weight: 29 lbs Height: 18 in Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $599 Fence needed?  Yes, Dainty is a flight risk if spooked and will need a physical fence that is at least 4 feet tall. What kind of home would be best for me?  Meet Dainty, a beautiful girl who came to us as a breeder release. Like many dogs in similar situations, Dainty is still learning about the world and can be easily spooked. She’s unsure of many things and needs a patient adopter who can guide her through her journey of trust and security. Dainty is not comfortable around small dogs. She becomes anxious when small dogs are near her feet and may growl or snap. She does better with larger dogs, though sudden movements by them can startle her. No cats for this girl. Dainty enjoys the company of her small pack here and is beginning to understand that she is in a safe, loving space. Dainty has never lived without the companionship of other dogs and requires another large, confident dog in her forever home. Dainty will need an adopter who is patient, understanding, kind, and most importantly, loving. With the right guidance, she has the potential to become a wonderful and affectionate pet. She doesn't mind if her adopter is single, a couple, or a family, as long as she receives lots of love and care. If adopted by a family, we recommend a home with older children, as sudden movements and loud noises can frighten her. What is my personality like?  Dainty is a young (under 2-year-old) dog with no life experience. As a breeder release, she has never known what it means to be a companion or pet. What she lacks in experience she makes up for in heart. Every experience for this girl is new; you will teach her everything. It will be work. She will be worth it. Dainty can walk on a leash, but she is easily spooked by many things. At times, she may try to run away or dart between your legs. She doesn’t yet know basic commands, but with time and patience, she will learn. Teaching Dainty new commands and how to walk confidently on a leash will help strengthen your bond with her.   We’re seeing Dainty slowly blossom with each passing day. You can see in her eyes that she wants to trust people and share her love. This girl is waiting patiently for her special adopter who will give her the chance to thrive. If you have it in your heart to work with this girl as she develops into your loving and caring pet, come see Dainty today. It just may be love at first sight for both of you. How do I act when I first meet new people?  Dainty is initially wary of new people, but it’s clear that she wants to connect and be loved. If you take your time with her, she will gradually allow you to pet her and begin to trust you. Other tips and tidbits: Dainty's birthday is 07/09/2023. 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. March 15, 2025, 12:27 pm

Shadow is spayed, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative.   Weight: 42 lbs Height: 24 in Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $599 Fence needed? No, but a fenced yard is always a great safety feature for any dog. What kind of home would be best for me? Shadow is looking for an energetic adopter who’s ready to give him plenty of love and attention. In return, he doesn’t care whether you’re single, a couple, or a family—though if you ask him, he’d tell you his dream home includes kids! Shadow absolutely adores children. Because he’s a big guy who loves to jump up and give hugs, we recommend children in the home be at least 10 years old. While Shadow could adapt to apartment living, he’ll need plenty of daily exercise to stay happy and healthy. Ideally, he’d love a home with a fenced yard where he can safely run and play—especially if there are kids or other dogs to play with. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs and enjoys canine playtime. He may be a bit too energetic for most cats. What is my personality like? Say hello to Shadow, a handsome, loving, and active boy looking for his forever home. He came to us as a breeder release, but unlike many dogs in that situation, Shadow is already well-socialized—he loves people, gets along great with other dogs, and has a cheerful, go-with-the-flow attitude. Shadow will benefit from leash training and learning basic commands like sit, stay, down, and come. With daily practice, affection, and tasty treats, Shadow will pick things up quickly. Not only will this boost his confidence, but it will also strengthen the bond between you and your new best friend. Shadow is an affectionate, goofy lovebug who thrives on attention. If you’re not showering him with love, he’ll be quick to jump up and give you a big bear hug—he’s even been known to dance around the room with his humans! If there were a canine ballroom competition, Shadow would be a champion. That said, he’s a big boy, so working on his manners will help channel all that love in a more polite direction. Shadow is truly a special dog who will bring endless love and happiness into the life of whoever is lucky enough to adopt him. Once he’s in your home, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without him. How do I act when I first meet new people? Shadow is a social butterfly—he loves meeting new people and absolutely ADORES children. Other tips and tidbits: Shadow was born on 06/11/2023.

Carolina Poodle Rescue transferred her into rescue. Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet SC Special Needs? Paris is up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative. We were told Paris is a standard poodle, but only a DNA test will confirm if she is mixed breed. Her coat is more similar to a doodle. Given this, we cannot guarantee that she is hypoallergenic. Weight: 25.4 lbs Height: 22 in Spayed/Neutered: No. Paris will be spayed on 3/28/25 and ready for a home on 4/4/25. We are accepting applications to adopt now. Adoption Fee: $599 Fence needed? Yes. Paris is incredibly high energy and needs plenty of physically fenced space to run and play. The fencing must be 4 feet or taller. What kind of home would be best for me?  Meet Paris, a lively girl with seemingly endless energy! She’s on the lookout for a forever home that can keep up with her playful personality. Paris loves people but can be selective about her canine companions. Paris could thrive as an only dog, though she’s open to sharing her home with another dog. She’s particular about which dogs she bonds with; it will truly be up to her if she chooses a home with another canine companion. Paris doesn’t mind if her new family is a single person, a couple, or a family—she just wants a home that’s as active and loving as she is! Whether it’s hiking in the mountains, walking through the woods, or spending a day at the beach, Paris is ready to tag along. She’d even love to accompany you on errands—especially if they end with a pup cup! Due to her high energy, Paris isn’t recommended for families with young children, as she may unintentionally knock them over when she plays.  What is my personality like?  Paris is an energetic and playful girl with a bit of a discerning taste when it comes to her canine friends. She absolutely adores people and is always excited to meet someone new. Paris is still learning some basics. She doesn't yet know commands like come, sit, down, or stay, and she’ll need leash training as well. But with time, patience, and consistency, the bond you form with her through training will be priceless! If you are looking for a wonderful active girl who enjoy bringing a smile to people’s faces, Paris is the perfect girl for you!  How do I act when I first meet new people?  Paris is a social butterfly who loves everyone she meets. She’s yet to meet a stranger! Other tips and tidbits:  We don’t know Paris's exact birthday, but we estimate she’s around 2 years old, celebrating her birthday as February 6, 2023. House trained?

Chase is neutered, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative. Chase is a poodle mix—possibly with some schnauzer in the mix, judging by his charming nub tail and scruffy coat. While his breed and past remain a bit of a mystery since he was found as a stray, what’s certain is that this sweet boy is full of love and personality.  Weight: 31 lbs - Chase is underweight and needs to gain 10 lbs Height: 24 in Spayed/Neutered: unknown Adoption Fee: $599 Fence needed? Yes, Chase requires a physically fenced yard with fencing 4 feet or taller. What kind of home would be best for me? Weighing in at about 40 pounds, Chase is the perfect medium-sized companion. He’s a Velcro dog through and through, happiest when he’s close to his people. He loves to be touching or near someone at all times and would thrive in a home where someone is around often. Whether he’s curled up at your feet, trailing behind you from room to room, or nudging in for affection, Chase just wants to be part of everything you do. While Chase can be vocal and likes to express himself, this makes him less suited for apartment life. A home with a fenced yard—at least four feet high—would be perfect for him to safely run, explore, and burn off energy. He isn’t a fan of grooming yet and tends to wiggle quite a bit, but with patience and continued positive experiences, he’ll learn that being pampered isn’t so bad after all. Chase would do well in a home with children over the age of 10 who can respect his space and energy. He’s still young, curious, and learning about the world, but with the right family, he’s ready to grow into the amazing companion we know he can be. Chase enjoys playing with other dogs, especially those around his age and energy level, though he tends to prefer gentler play. Rowdy dogs can overwhelm him, so a canine companion who understands his softer style would be ideal. He’s also incredibly food-motivated, which makes training a fun and rewarding experience for both him and his people. What is my personality like? Meet Chase - a bundle of joy with a heart full of love! This sweet boy is ready to be your loyal, loving sidekick, always ready to brighten your day with a wagging tail and a big, happy smile. He is a true sweetheart and adores being pet and receiving affection. Chase is doing phenomenal at things like potty training and learning simple commands, but he still needs socialization and more positive learning experiences! He’s an easy-going boy who simply just wants your undivided attention. Chase is a smart, curious boy who benefits from regular enrichment and mental stimulation. Puzzle toys, treat-dispensing balls, and other interactive activities help keep his brain engaged and satisfied. He also enjoys short social outings—like walks around new neighborhoods, pet-friendly shops, or quiet parks—which allow him to take in new sights and smells while building confidence. When Chase first arrived at the rescue, he was very underweight. It’s clear he went without meals at some point in his life, and as a result, he now eats with urgency. Because of this, Chase should be fed using a slow feeder to help pace his meals and prevent any issues from eating too quickly. With time and consistency, he’s learning that food is no longer scarce—and that his bowl will always be full when he needs it. Whether it’s playtime, a cozy snuggle session, or simply following you around, Chase will be his happiest when he is by your side. Chase is full of love, loyalty, and playful spirit. He’s ready to find his forever family—one that will embrace his quirks, shower him with attention, and give him the stable, joyful life he deserves. How do I act when I first meet new people? Chase loves everyone and everything! Other tips and tidbits: Chase was estimated by 3 years old when surrendered to the NC shelter. We celebrate his birthday 1/27/23. House trained?

Yes, Shiloh Trixie is an escape artist.  I do not trust her with just leash walking.  She loves to romp with her friends and needs the security and safety of her own private dog park in her back yard. What kind of home would be best for me? Shiloh Trixie is a sweet, shy girl who is on a journey to becoming a loving and loyal companion. She was surrendered because her previous owner who, after just a short time in their home, realized they were unable to provide the time and attention she needed. Currently, Shiloh Trixie thrives in the company of other dogs and enjoys playing with energetic, playful canines. She learns a lot from her doggy friends and takes her cues from them. Shiloh Trixie will only be placed in a home with at least one, and even more is fine, standard poodles who will accept her into their world.  She will always need a friendly, confident dog friend who can serve as a positive role model. As for humans, Trixie is much more comfortable around women and she prefers you to be under 5'4" ( I know, you did not know dogs could measure right?).  She is hesitant around taller individuals. This behavior may be a remnant of her previous situation, and we are working with her to help her feel more secure around all people. This gentle girl needs an adopter who can offer patience, kindness, and consistency as she continues to develop her social skills. Shiloh Trixie walks well on a leash but will need to learn basic commands such as sit, stay, down, and come. She is highly treat-motivated, which will help her pick up these skills quickly. In her crate, Shiloh Trixie feels safe and secure; she has never had accidents in it. She enjoys playing with toys and sometimes "borrows" them from her doggy friends. Shiloh Trixie will thrive in a home where someone is around most of the day to provide the guidance and support she requires. She would do well with a single person, a couple, or a family with mature children aged 16 and older. With a loving and dedicated owner, Shiloh Trixie will grow into a wonderful companion. Watching her blossom into a confident, loving pet will be a truly rewarding experience. What is my personality like? Shiloh Trixie gets along well with other dogs and tends to mirror their behavior. If they are playful and happy, she will be too; if they are agitated, she might also become unsettled. A home with a well-adjusted large canine companion(s) would be ideal for her. How do I act when I first meet new people? Shiloh Trixie is initially shy and may take some time to warm up. She tends to do better with women and might be cautious around men or individuals more than six feet tall. With patience and gentle encouragement, she will continue to improve in her social interactions. Other tips and tidbits: We have no documents on Shiloh.  We were told she was about two (2), so we estimate her birthdate to be on or around 8/8/22.  Shiloh Trixie is the kind of dog for those of us who love this breed, hate what has happened to them during covid, and has the space and time to welcome a follower dog into their home.  She is going to be a great buddy to someone.   House trained?

Carolina Poodle Rescue pulled him from the shelter. Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet SC Special Needs? Aiden is neutered, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative.  We were told Aiden is a standard poodle, but only a DNA test will confirm if he is mixed breed. His coat is more similar to a doodle.  Given this, we cannot guarantee that he is hypoallergenic. Weight: 45 lbs Height: 24 in Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $599 Fence needed? Yes, Aiden requires a physically fenced yard with fencing 4 feet or taller. What kind of home would be best for me? Meet Aiden, a big, bouncy boy with endless energy! This happy-go-lucky guy is searching for his forever home with an active family. Aiden gets along with everyone and loves to play, but he can be a bit jumpy, so he’s not recommended for families with young children (under 10 years old) or seniors. Due to his size and tendency to bark, Aiden isn’t suited for apartment living. He’s more of a “single-family home” kind of dog and would do best in a house without shared walls. Aiden thrives in an environment where he can stretch his legs and play freely. Aiden doesn't have a preference when it comes to whether his adopter is a single person, a couple, or a family, as long as they’re as active as he is! He wants a family that will engage with him, take him on regular walks, and include him in all their adventures, whether it's hiking in the woods, climbing mountains, or hitting the beach. Aiden loves to be with his humans as much as possible! What is my personality like? Aiden was seized in a cruelty case and landed at a SC shelter. Don't tell him - he thinks life is just grand! Aiden is an energetic, playful, and happy boy who gets along with every dog he meets. He may be a bit much for cats, unless you have a very playful one who can keep up with him! Aiden is currently working on crate training. He’s been clean in his crate here, and with regular potty breaks (especially before bed), he should do well in his new home. Though Aiden walks well on a leash, he would benefit from some refresher training. His new family should also be ready to work with him on basic commands like “come,” “sit,” “down,” and “stay.” The time you spend with Aiden will help build confidence, trust, and a strong bond between you both. If you’re an active person or family who loves long walks, hikes, or beach trips, Aiden would be the perfect companion for you. Adopt Aiden today, and you’ll both embark on the adventure of a lifetime! How do I act when I first meet new people? Aiden is friendly and outgoing, happily greeting anyone he meets and expecting them to be his new playmate! Other tips and tidbits: Aiden was born on or about 2/6/2023. 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. April 26, 2025, 9:36 am
