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:11/6/24 Reason for being in rescue: Owner release. Owner is becoming homeless and wants Sprocket to have a good home. Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet SC Special Needs? Sprocket is neutered, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative. Weight: 20 lbs (est) Height: 14 in Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $349 Fence needed? No, but he would enjoy one. Sprocket has a lot of energy to burn off and prefers to be the only dog in the area. What kind of home would be best for me? Sprocket is best as the only dog in the home. His fearless, terrier instincts make him prone to challenging other dogs, regardless of size, and he doesn’t get along with cats either. For this reason, he would thrive in a single-pet household where he can enjoy all the attention. Sprocket would do best with an experienced dog owner, particularly someone familiar with terriers and their strong personalities. He could fit into a house or apartment and would be perfectly happy in a home with a single person or a couple. If you live in a community setting (apartment, townhome, etc.) be prepared that Sprocket is NOT a dog park sort of guy. He also isn't interested in group play dates or walking sessions.  What is my personality like? Meet Sir Sprocket of Inman, your new highly active best friend! Sir Sprocket, a spirited, feisty terrier ready to bring lots of energy and personality into your life! Sprocket came to us after his previous owners became homeless and made the selfless decision to surrender him, hoping he would find a loving new home. Now, he's looking for an active family that can keep up with his high energy and bold spirit. Sprocket is a high-energy dog who thrives on exercise and mental stimulation. He loves to play, run, and stay active, so he needs a family who enjoys outdoor adventures like walks, hikes, and runs. A securely fenced yard where he can burn off his energy would be ideal but be prepared—he'll likely tire you out first! Without enough physical and mental outlets, Sprocket may become restless or destructive. Sprocket is a confident, courageous, and independent little dog. He's not shy about asserting himself and can be stubborn at times. While he’s very alert and would make a great watchdog, Sprocket needs an experienced owner who understands his strong-willed nature. Sprocket resource guards his food, toys, and space, especially in his run. If you're near him during mealtime it's important to give him space and let him finish before approaching. When it comes to toys, distraction is the best method to avoid conflict. His space here is his run and when the gate is closed, he resource guards it. We stand to the side and open the gate. Once outside of his "territory," Sprocket is calm and affectionate, and he’s perfectly happy being picked up and cuddled. He's going to be best in a home where crating and barriers are minimal to non-existent. Sprocket walks on a leash but pulls, so he will need consistent leash training. He also needs to learn basic commands like sit, stay, down, and come. With patience and guidance, Sprocket will become a well-mannered companion. Sprocket is not house trained. We do not crate him due to his tendency to resource guard his space. How do I act when I first meet new people? Sprocket can be a bit protective of his space, and when meeting new people, he may bark or bare his teeth if you enter his "territory." However, once he’s away from his run, he’s friendly and quick to warm up to you. With a little patience, you’ll quickly see his affectionate and playful side. Other tips and tidbits: Sprocket was originally found as a stray back in 2022. At the time, it was estimated he was 3ish years old. We celebrate Sprocket's birthday 11/6/2019. 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. December 3, 2024, 5:52 pm

Age: 5 years Weight: 9 lbs. Adoption Fee: $350.00 Fostered in Indian Trail, North Carolina Email: yorkiemommync@yahoo.com 9/16/24 - Bruno's skin condition has been in remission for over a year. He no longer takes any medication for his skin. He is just on supplements for his joints since his hips are not the best. He is very sensitive to the food he eats and can get runny poo very quickly, but his foster mom has found a food that is working and he has no longer had any poo issues. He still loves to play with toys and likes to be chased, he crawls under blankets to nap, and unfortunately still has to wear a belly band because he will pee on anything at any time. He still always looks so happy and excited too. 11/30/22 – Today we found out Bruno has an autoimmune disease called Pemphigus Erythematosus that is causing all his skin issues. His dermatologist is going to start him on high dose steroids for two weeks to try and get it in remission as quickly as possible so we can back down and get him ready to have his torn ACL repaired. He will also be going on a medication called Mycophenolate for the autoimmune disease, and that will likely be for the rest of his life to keep it in remission. He is still going to physical therapy weekly and is still not too thrilled with the hydro treadmill. He just does not want to use his back legs to walk while in it. Might just take more time and hopefully once we can get the torn ACL repaired it will get even better. Despite all he has going on, he is still so happy and loving! He gets to spend more time out of the crate now that he is six weeks post hip surgery. Thank you to everyone for their prayers and support for Bruno! 11/2/22 – Bruno had his hip surgery on 10/18. We have been doing his exercises at home, but unfortunately he is not using the leg like he should, so we will be starting with physical therapy on 11/4. We are hopeful this will help to get the leg moving the way it should and build up some more muscle as it feels like he has lost even more muscle mass in that leg. He still needs the ACL repair to happen, but the skin needs to be figured out first. Bruno has also seen the dermatologist and she initially thought his skin issues were from an antibiotic resistant staph infection, but he has had two negative cultures. She is now thinking it could possibly be an auto immune disease, even though she did not see the cells she usually sees when doing a skin scrape in the office. We are spraying him with a topical antibiotic/steroid spray and medicated baths every 3 days. We have a skin biopsy tentatively scheduled for 11/15. We need to get the infection cleared up more before doing a biopsy otherwise it could skew the results. Poor Bruno has so much going on, but even through all of it he is so happy and loving. He will just stare lovingly into your eyes and snuggle into you. 10/12/22 - Bruno went in yesterday and was neutered and had his dental done. After dental x-rays were done, it was found that he had major bone loss around several teeth and the start of bone loss around others. Given they were so bad, as we suspected, he had to have the remaining teeth he had removed. He is doing good with no teeth and ate some food last night and breakfast this morning. The dogtor said as he was under anesthesia and she wiggled a few of the teeth his blood pressure would go up, meaning she could tell they were painful to him. His mouth should feel so much better now. We also went to see the specialist last week as his leg has become worse being on crate rest. It was decided that he will go in on 10/18 for an FHO on his worst hip and if his skin is much better at that time she will also fix the torn ACL. He cannot have any infection for that repair, so we are crossing our fingers. If not, he will have to go in when his skin is cleared up and have the ACL repair. He has been battling the skin issues since December 2021 when his savior took him out of the bad situation. The dogtor suspects it is still flea dermatitis. His skin is better, but not good enough. The hip surgery is estimated to be around $2500 right now. Despite all his ailments he is still such a happy and loving little guy. 9/21/22 – Bruno is a happy go lucky little man that you can just see the smile on his face. He loves belly rubs, lots of affection, and loves to play with toys now that he knows how to. He did not have a great start to his life by living the first years of his life in a building with several other yorkies that were just given food and water a couple of times a day and not having all the love and attention they deserved. A wonderful lady went to help his original owner clean up all the dogs and convinced her to let her take two of the pups in December 2021. When his savior brought him home he had fleas, was not using his back leg, and had a bad rash. She worked very hard to make him feel better. Due to her own health, she unfortunately had to surrender him, which is how he came to YHR. We are still working on clearing up his rash, his bloodwork is slowly improving, but he has very bad teeth that need to be cleaned. He is scheduled for his dental and neuter on 10/12. We saw the specialist today regarding his limping and lameness in his left back leg. He does have bilateral hip arthritis, restricted mobility in both hips, but he also has a torn ACL in he left knee. He is going on crate rest for about 4 weeks to see if he can build scar tissue to naturally heal it and try to avoid surgery. If that does not work, then he will need surgery to repair it. Once we get that fixed, then we will see if his mobility gets better and if not, he may need surgery on the hip to give him mobility. With the issues with the back legs, he does put more pressure on his front legs and sometimes limps on the front legs, but x-rays show there are no issues with the front legs. Bruno really is just the happiest little guy we have seen in a while. He looks like he is smiling a lot of the time. He does great riding in the car and has been doing so in a doggy car seat. His crate rest will be in a stroller, which he does not mind either. He went for a stroll last weekend in the stroller and did great. Given he is older and was never neutered nor trained to go potty outside because he peed where he lived, he does mark a lot. That likely will not change given his age, so he may need to remain in a belly band, which he is great with too. He has lost some muscle mass in his backend, so the bellybands will slip off his hips, but suspenders have worked great to keep it in place. We are not sure about him likely to cuddle given the pain he is dealing with in his knee and hips, so hopefully when that all gets fixed we can see if he is a cuddle bug too.

Name: Harper Age: 8 years Weight: 6 lbs. Fostered in Indian Trail, NC Adoption Fee: $250 9/16/24 - Harper is doing great! She still has her fecal incontinence, but her foster mom just has blankets everywhere she lays to clean if an accident happens. Her foster mom has added some additional supplements to her food and Harper has gotten a little more spunky with running around outside and is asking for attention more than before. She does have some allergy issues, but the supplements and different food have helped with some of her licking and chewing. Everything else is going good for Harper! 1/3/2024 – Harper is doing great! Harper did have an MRI that identified she has a pocket of fluid pushing on her spinal cord. This pocket of fluid is right where her back humps up and is the cause to her occasional bowel incontinence. Being this pocket of fluid is pushing on the spinal cord, draining it is riskier than just leaving it alone. Her symptoms are not severe, so it is not worth the risk. She may develop urinary incontinence over time and her fecal incontinence may get worse, but other than that she is doing just fine. Her foster mom just keeps blankets where she sleeps so if she does go poo, the blanket can just be washed. She is not on any meds and we did try a round of steroids that did not change anything. Harper is a very loving little girl. She loves attention and to give kisses. She is good about laying on the couch or in a doggy bed during the day. She sleeps in a doggy bed on her foster mom’s bed and does great. She does not play with toys much. She does good in the car, but does shake when in the car. Her foster mom puts her in a car seat and she does good and lays down. She also does well in a crate if she needs to be put in one. 6/26/23 – Harper is a very sweet and loving little girl that we unfortunately do not know anything about her background. She does occasionally cower down, which could be fear or a something happened to her at some point. She has a cute little under bite and recently had a dental where she lost 9 teeth. She had teeth missing prior as well, but she does still have some teeth left. Harper does have a walk that is off, walks with a hump back, and occasionally has bowel incontinence, meaning she poos without knowing it and it usually ends up in her bed when she is sleeping. She is at the specialist today getting an MRI done so we can maybe figure out what is causing her problems and to see if we can fix it for her. We will post an update when we know more about what is going on for our sweet little Harper.

Adoption Application: bit.ly/C2CND_App *** CAN GO HOME AFTER 11/26/2024 *** *** BONDED TO LITTLE MANDY *** Quick Facts: Name: Little Tucker Estimated Birthday: 9/13/2017 Breed: Yorkshire Terrier Size: 6ish Pounds House Trained: Work in Progress Adoption Fee: $650 for both Little Tucker is an 8-pound Yorkie, around 9 years old, who has been through a lot in his life. Dumped by a breeder, Tucker is still adjusting to the world beyond the cramped space he knew before. Everything is new to him—walks, toys, even affection from humans—but he’s making incredible progress in his new life. Tucker’s favorite thing in the world is small toys that fit perfectly in his mouth. He’ll carry them around all day, almost like a pacifier, and he’s very protective of them. If you try to take his toy, he’ll hide it in his crate to keep it safe, but don’t worry, he’s not aggressive. He just loves his little treasures. Although Tucker has never really experienced walks before, he’s learning to walk on a leash, though he’s still a bit nervous about it. He’s also working on his potty training. He’s getting better, but it will take some time and patience. He’s accustomed to wearing a belly band indoors, and he’s crate trained, which gives him a sense of security. Tucker is an affectionate dog who is learning to enjoy the attention he receives. He’s gentle and loves people, though because of his toy-guarding instincts, he would do best in a home with older kids who understand how to respect his space. Tucker has formed a very close bond with Little Mandy, and these two would love to be adopted together. They provide each other comfort and security, and adopting them as a pair would give them both the chance to continue their journey of healing and growth together. Tucker may still need a little time to adjust to his new world, but with a patient family, he’ll blossom into a loyal, loving companion who will reward your kindness with unconditional affection. ******* Little Tucker was used for breeding and most likely kept confined to his crate. Up until now potty training was not something he was taught so potty training will need consistent work and patience. ******** Before emailing- please read: - Yes, this dog is available for adoption - The adoption fee for Little Tucker and Little Mandy is $ 650 - Apply at c2cnd.org - The adoption fee covers their age appropriate shots, microchip, deworming, spay/neuter, and any other medical expenses while in our care. - Local adopters only.

Adoption Application: bit.ly/C2CND_App *** CAN GO HOME AFTER 11/26/2024 *** *** BONDED TO LITTLE TUCKER *** Quick Facts: Name: Little Mandy Estimated Birthday: 9/14/2014 Breed: Yorkshire Terrier Size: 6ish Pounds House Trained: Work in Progress Adoption Fee: $650 for both Little Mandy is a sweet, 7-year-old Yorkie weighing just 6 pounds. She was dumped by breeders with several other dogs, and she’s been adjusting to life outside of that world. She’s a playful little dynamo who has discovered the joy of squeaky toys, and oh, does she love them! Whether inside, outside, in her crate, or even while drinking water, Mandy can’t get enough of her squeaky toys. She’s full of energy and will keep you entertained with her adorable antics as she carries her toys around like they’re the best things ever. Little Mandy is still learning some basic skills, and she’s a little nervous about new experiences. She’s not yet familiar with walking on a leash and is still a bit scared when it comes to walks. But she’s improving every day and is eager to please. Mandy is also working on potty training. She’ll sometimes use a pee pad, but she’s not always reliable, so it will take consistent effort and patience to help her master this. Mandy is crate trained and feels safe in her crate, especially when she’s feeling overwhelmed or unsure. Little Mandy is a very sweet and affectionate dog who loves everyone she meets. She’s friendly with both people and other dogs, but because of her tiny size, she would do best in a home with older children who will be gentle with her. She’s small and fragile, so extra care is needed to keep her safe. Mandy has a very strong bond with Little Tucker, and the two are practically inseparable. They provide each other with comfort and emotional support, and it would be wonderful if they could be adopted together. With a patient and loving family, Mandy will continue to grow in confidence and become a playful, affectionate companion who will fill your home with joy. ******** Little Mandy was used for breeding and most likely kept confined to her crate.
