Poodle puppies and dogs in Florence, Oregon

We have a transport leaving between the 1st and 3rd of November 2026 from where we are located in Southern California to NorCal, OR, and surrounding states as needed for our adopting families where we bring our dogs all the way to their homes 💗 For peace of mind we never ask for anything up front. The adoption fee along with your share of travel costs will be due the day we arrive in person ultimately finalizing the adoption then and there with you. We would love to add Jovie to our trip for the right family 😊 Meet Jovie! 🩷 Some dogs have a way of bringing happiness into a room simply by walking into it. They don’t have to do anything extraordinary. Their presence, their enthusiasm for life, and the way they love so freely are enough to remind us just how beautiful the little moments can be. Jovie is one of those dogs, and we couldn’t have chosen a more fitting name for this incredible girl! Her name, Jovie, is a modern name associated with joy, happiness, and a cheerful spirit, inspired by the word jovial. And if ever there were a girl who embodied the meaning of her name, it would be her! She is happiness on four paws, with a heart as beautiful as her appearance and a personality that makes it nearly impossible not to fall in love with her. 🩷 Jovie is a gorgeous 10-month-old Portuguese Water Dog and Poodle mix, born on Christmas Day! Yes, our beautiful girl is a Christmas baby, which makes her story feel even more special because she truly is a gift in every sense of the word. From her beautiful black-and-white curls and those wonderfully expressive eyes to her outgoing, affectionate, and playful personality, there is something so incredibly special about this girl. Jovie came into our care through no fault of her own. Her previous owner loved her dearly, but his work and personal responsibilities required him to travel out of town frequently. Without a consistent support system at home to help care for her, he found himself relying on different dog sitters, and despite his efforts, he wasn’t able to establish the consistency he wanted for his beautiful girl. He recognized that Jovie deserved more than a revolving door of caregivers and an unpredictable routine. She deserved stability, companionship, and someone who could share everyday life with her. As difficult as it was, he made the loving decision to ask us to take her into our care and help find her a home as incredible as she is. And what an absolute blessing it has been getting to know her! Jovie is the kind of girl who genuinely LOVES people. She is incredibly friendly, outgoing, affectionate, and social. She doesn’t seem to believe in strangers, only friends she hasn’t had the pleasure of meeting yet! She has a beautiful enthusiasm for life and an equally beautiful ability to make the people around her feel loved and appreciated. One of my absolute favorite things about Jovie is how much she loves being talked to. And I don’t mean simply hearing your voice in the background. I mean actually sitting there, looking at you, and appearing to listen to every single word you say! 😂🩷 She will tilt her head to the right, then to the left, watching you with such curiosity and attentiveness that you almost find yourself wondering just how much of the conversation she understands! There is something so endearing about the way she studies your face and responds to your voice. I genuinely believe she enjoys being included in the conversation because it makes her feel special, and I can promise you that if you’re someone who loves having a little companion to talk to throughout the day, Jovie will happily volunteer to become your most trusted confidant. Tell her about your day, your plans, your worries, or what you’re making for dinner. She will be right there, listening with those adorable head tilts and making you feel as though every word matters. And the best part? Your secrets will always be safe with her! 🩷 She is also an incredibly fun girl who knows how to enjoy life! Jovie absolutely LOVES playing fetch, and she has learned to bring the ball right back to you every single time! She doesn’t just enjoy the chase; she loves the entire experience of playing together. Watching her excitement as she waits for that next throw is enough to make you want to keep playing long after you originally intended to stop. And if you happen to enjoy soccer, well, you may have just found yourself the most enthusiastic teammate imaginable! 😂 Jovie LOVES playing soccer! Kick a ball around the yard, and she is ready to join in, happily chasing it and turning an ordinary afternoon into something memorable. She has such a playful, spirited personality, and her excitement is wonderfully contagious. Whether you’re tossing a ball, kicking one across the grass, or simply enjoying some time outdoors, she is always ready to participate. What makes her even more wonderful is that her playful personality is beautifully balanced by her affectionate nature. She loves companionship and genuinely enjoys being near the people she loves. She is not a girl who needs constant entertainment to be happy. She simply wants to be included, whether that means playing outside, relaxing together, or keeping you company as you go about your day. Jovie is fully house-trained and has a wonderful understanding of her potty routine. She goes outside when asked and has done beautifully maintaining those habits in our care. As with any dog transitioning into a new home, we always encourage consistency while she learns her new family’s schedule, but she already has a wonderful foundation. She is also crate-trained and has no issues settling into her crate at bedtime or when you need to step out of the house. She understands the routine and does very well with it. That being said, she is equally comfortable resting on a dog bed and enjoying her own little space nearby. She is adaptable, easy to work with, and has a wonderful understanding of everyday household expectations. Jovie is leash-trained and does very well on walks! She may occasionally pull ever so slightly, but I honestly think it’s because she is so excited to experience everything the world has to offer. Every new smell, every interesting sound, and every little discovery seems worthy of her attention. There is something rather beautiful about watching a dog appreciate the world that way. Sometimes we get so caught up in where we’re going that we forget to enjoy everything along the way, and Jovie has a sweet way of reminding us to slow down and smell the roses right alongside her. 🩷 She is also an absolutely wonderful traveling companion! Whether you’re heading out for a quick drive around town or embarking on a road trip that takes you hours from home, Jovie is ready to come along. She travels beautifully in the car and genuinely seems to enjoy the experience. She doesn’t need to know the destination or have the itinerary planned out. As far as she is concerned, if she gets to be with her favorite person, the adventure has already begun. And I think that’s one of the most beautiful things about her. She isn’t concerned with where life takes her nearly as much as who she gets to share it with. Jovie is wonderful with other animals, including cats! She has a very friendly, social disposition and enjoys the company of other dogs. She is always happy to make a new friend, and if that friend happens to enjoy playing ball, well, that’s even better! 😂 She would absolutely love a canine companion who shares her enthusiasm for play, but she would also be perfectly happy being someone’s cherished girl with plenty of companionship, attention, and opportunities to enjoy her favorite activities. She is equally wonderful with men, women, and children. Her affectionate, welcoming personality is one of the many reasons we adore her. She has such a beautiful way of opening her heart to others, and the happiness she brings into everyday interactions is something that really must be experienced to be fully appreciated. And while she certainly has plenty of personality, Jovie is not an excessive barker. She may occasionally alert you when something catches her attention, but barking is not something she makes a habit of. In fact, I should probably warn you that if you’re hoping for a serious watchdog, Jovie might not be your girl. She may very well decide the mailman or gardener is simply another wonderful person who has stopped by to receive a few kisses! 😂🩷 So while she may not be particularly intimidating when it comes to guarding your home, she will certainly do her part to make everyone feel welcome! At just 10 months old, Jovie has so much life ahead of her, and I can only imagine the beautiful memories she will make with the family fortunate enough to call her their own. She has a wonderful foundation, an incredibly loving disposition, and a genuine excitement for life that makes even ordinary days feel special. She deserves a home where she will be included, celebrated, and loved for the beautiful soul she is. A family who appreciates her playful spirit, enjoys her companionship, and has the time to make her a meaningful part of their everyday lives. Whether that home belongs to an active family who loves outdoor adventures, someone looking for a cheerful walking companion, or a person who simply wants a devoted best friend to share life’s little moments with, Jovie has so much love to offer. She doesn’t need a perfect life filled with extraordinary adventures. She just needs someone who understands that, to her, being together is what makes life extraordinary. Jovie has already had her veterinary examination with our veterinarian, and everything went wonderfully! She is a healthy, happy girl who is ready to begin the next chapter of her life. She will go home current on her yearly vaccinations, microchipped, and with a health certificate issued by our veterinarian. We have also had a fecal sample submitted to the laboratory to screen for internal parasites as part of her veterinary care. Jovie has not yet been spayed, as our veterinarian has recommended waiting until she is at least 12 months old before proceeding with her surgery. Since she is currently only 10 months old, she will be adopted with a spay agreement so her future family can complete that important part of her care when she reaches the recommended age. Her adoption fee is on our website at the bottom of her adoption listing at https://www.breadoflifek9refuge.org/post/jovie It helps cover her veterinary examination, yearly vaccinations, microchip, health certificate, laboratory fecal testing, and the months of daily care, training, socialization, and grooming we have provided while preparing her for her forever home. It also helps support the continued care of the other beautiful dogs who depend on our rescue while waiting for families of their own. I keep coming back to the meaning behind her name because it truly describes her so perfectly. Jovie. A name inspired by joy, happiness, and a cheerful heart. She is the girl who will listen to your stories with her head tilted to one side, bring her favorite ball back to you again and again, happily accompany you down roads neither of you have traveled before, and remind you that some of life’s greatest blessings come wrapped in the simplest moments. Born on Christmas Day, she entered this world on a day we associate with giving, love, and joy. And now she is waiting for the greatest gift of all. A family to call her own, a place where she belongs, and someone who will love her just as wholeheartedly as she is ready to love them. Our beautiful Jovie. A little Christmas blessing with a great big heart, just waiting to become someone’s greatest joy. 🩷

Kamo is pending adoption Mina has found a wonderful home 🩷 We have a transport leaving between the 1st and 3rd of November 2026 from where we are located in Southern California to NorCal, OR, and surrounding states as needed for our adopting families where we bring our dogs all the way to their homes 💗 For peace of mind we never ask for anything up front. The adoption fee along with your share of travel costs will be due the day we arrive in person ultimately finalizing the adoption then and there with you. We would love to add Kamo and Mina to our trip for the right family/families 😊 Meet our beautiful brother and sister duo, Kamo and Mina! 🩵🩷 Born June 5, 2026, Kamo and Mina are Portuguese Water Dog/Poodle mixes who came to us together and have been such a joy to get to know. While we are introducing them in one post because they are siblings, we want to make it very clear that they do NOT need to be adopted together. They complement one another beautifully, genuinely enjoy each other’s company, and certainly could remain together if the right family wanted to open their home and hearts to both, but they are equally confident and comfortable outside of one another and will absolutely thrive separately with the right families. And that is important to us because we want everyone reading this to have the opportunity to get to know Kamo and Mina as two individual puppies, rather than simply seeing them as a pair. 🩵🩷 Their mom is 55 lbs full grown and we were told their dad, who belonged to a friend of their previous owner, is approximately 60 lbs. At their veterinary appointment on September 10th, Kamo weighed 23.2 lbs and Mina weighed 21.2 lbs. Based on their parents, their current weights and their growth so far, we are estimating both puppies to mature somewhere around the 55–60 lb range, with Mina potentially remaining slightly smaller than her brother. Of course, puppy growth can never be predicted down to an exact number, but we feel that range gives their future families a reasonable expectation of the good-sized adults they are growing into. Kamo is our handsome boy, and there is something so endearing about watching him move through puppyhood with this wonderfully easygoing disposition. He has that playful puppy side that comes out when the toys appear or his sister is ready for a game, but he also already understands the beauty of simply settling down and enjoying the moment. He is affectionate without needing to be the center of attention every second and loves coming over to be loved on, have his ears scratched, roll over for a belly rub, or simply hang out close to us. He is curious, attentive and incredibly receptive to the routines we have introduced, which makes working with him so rewarding. Mina is our beautiful little lady and has so much of that same lovely temperament while still carrying her own sweet presence. She is affectionate, observant and wonderfully content being part of whatever is happening around her. She loves her playtime, loves being near us, and has already shown us that she can transition beautifully from puppy fun to simply lounging around the house. There is a softness to the way she seeks out affection, coming over to be loved on or simply settling nearby, and we can easily picture her growing into one of those wonderful dogs who becomes an effortless part of her family’s everyday life. One of the things we love most about BOTH puppies is how beautifully balanced they already are at such a young age. Puppies are puppies, and of course they play, explore and find ways to entertain themselves, but these two have such calm, serene temperaments underneath all of that puppy silliness. They have great house manners for their age and are perfectly happy lounging around with us when playtime is over. Seeing that natural ability to settle this young gives us such a wonderful glimpse into the adults they are going to become. And then there is the WATER. 😂 These two absolutely live up to the Portuguese Water Dog side of their heritage! If there is water available, there is a very good chance Kamo or Mina will find it. They love lounging in the shallow end of our swimming pool, cooling themselves off whenever the opportunity presents itself, and apparently believe water bowls occasionally serve a secondary purpose as tiny swimming pools that should be emptied accordingly. 😂 Give them a nice dip in the pool followed by a sunny spot to lounge poolside and these two are living their very best lives. They also love their toys. They’ll happily play tug-of-war together, entertain themselves with a favorite stuffie, chew on a toy while relaxing, or find a sunny spot and simply enjoy the day. They play beautifully together, but neither puppy relies on the other in order to feel comfortable or entertained. Both Kamo and Mina are crate trained and doing AMAZINGLY with it. They sleep in their crates throughout the entire night without crying or having accidents. Once bedtime comes, they settle in quickly, sleep peacefully through the night and are ready to head outside to potty when we let them out in the morning. That is such an incredible foundation for puppies their age and something their future families can continue building upon. Their house training is also coming along wonderfully. They are still young puppies, so their new families will need to maintain a consistent potty routine as they continue maturing, but they are very smart, attentive and quick learners. With consistency, praise and a good schedule, we expect them to continue progressing beautifully. These are the kind of puppies that make training feel rewarding because they genuinely want to learn what is being asked of them. They have not started leash walking out in public yet, and that has been intentional. We want them appropriately vaccinated before we begin taking them into environments where they could be unnecessarily exposed while their puppy vaccine series is still being completed. Their final set of puppy vaccines is scheduled for September 24th, and once that is completed they will be ready to begin learning about walks, adventures and all of the fun that comes with exploring the world alongside their families. Their previous family owned their mother, while their father belonged to a friend. Their original intention was to keep Kamo and Mina, but as the puppies grew, they realized their busy schedules simply didn’t allow them to give two young dogs the time, consistency and training they deserved. Rather than casually placing them into homes without having the time or resources to properly vet potential adopters, they reached out to us and asked us to take them in. In return, we had their mom spayed for the family so there would be no possibility of another unexpected litter. We respect that they recognized what these puppies needed and chose to ask for help. Now we get the privilege of taking all the time necessary to make sure Kamo and Mina end up exactly where they are supposed to be, the first time. 🩷 Both puppies have received clean bills of health through our veterinarian and each has a health certificate that will go home with their adopting family. We also had fecal testing sent to the laboratory to screen for intestinal parasites, and both puppies tested negative for everything screened. Before adoption, they will be current on their age-appropriate puppy veterinary care, including their complete DA2PP puppy vaccine series, which includes protection against parvovirus, two Bordetella vaccines, and their one-year rabies vaccine. Both will also leave us microchipped. Kamo and Mina will be adopted on spay/neuter contracts because they are simply too young for us to sterilize at this stage of their development. Our contract will require their adopting families to have them altered once they have reached approximately 12 months of age. For puppies expected to mature into dogs of their size, we prefer allowing additional time for physical development rather than routinely altering them at only a few months old. Reproductive hormones play a role in growth and skeletal maturation, including growth-plate development, and the timing of sterilization can be particularly worth discussing in larger-growing dogs. Their families will be expected to keep them safely intact during this period and work with their veterinarian as they approach the age required by our contract. Most importantly, these are two genuinely wonderful puppies. Kamo doesn’t need Mina beside him in order to flourish, and Mina doesn’t need Kamo beside her in order to feel secure. They love each other because they are siblings who have shared their little lives thus far, but each has everything necessary to form a beautiful bond with a family of their own. If someone falls completely in love with both and has the time, space and commitment to raise two puppies, we are absolutely open to considering that home as well. We simply will never require it. Whether their journeys continue side by side or eventually take them to two different families, our goal remains exactly the same: finding each of them a home where they will be loved, trained, included and treasured for the rest of their lives. They have already given us such a beautiful foundation to work with... crate trained, progressing wonderfully with house training, intelligent, attentive, affectionate, playful without being overwhelming, able to settle in the home, and completely convinced that every available body of water was placed on this earth specifically for their enjoyment. 😂🩵🩷 Now they are ready for the best part of their journey: finding the families who get to watch these incredible puppies grow into equally incredible dogs. Their adoption fees are on our website at the bottom of their adoption listing at https://www.breadoflifek9refuge.org/post/mina-and-kamo Their individual adoption fees reflect the veterinary care they have received while with us, including their examinations, health certificates, laboratory fecal testing, puppy vaccine series, Bordetella vaccines, one-year rabies vaccines and microchips, along with their continued daily care, grooming and the time and hands-on training we have personally invested into giving them the strongest possible start before joining their forever families. And again, both will leave on sterilization contracts requiring spay/neuter at approximately 12 months of age. 🩵🩷
