Here's Your Quick Peek: Meet Sage - a bold, goofy, water‑loving puppy who’s growing into a once‑in‑a‑lifetime dog. Found as a neglected stray and rescued on 5/20/25, Sage has transformed from a hairless, mange‑ridden puppy into a stunning, healthy, 30‑lb beauty.  She loves water, toys, adventure, and cuddling with her humans at night.  Please note - if you want to skip the text and go straight to the application, you can find the link here: www.carolinapoodlerescue.org/application/ Must have: A high energy playmate Exercise: Very Active! Best with: Other active, playful dogs Not ideal for: Low energy home or home with small dogs or cats. Energy level: High! Sage is one of those dogs who will always keep herself entertained.

Good with dogs: Yes Good with kids: Unknown Cats: Unknown, has not been cat tested yet Fun fact: She’s a mischievous pup with a sparkle in her eye and a plan in her heart - usually involving something she shouldn’t be chewing.

Story
Looking for a new fur-iend? Look no further than Kayak! This fun-loving, affectionate, and loyal fella is the perfect addition to your family. Not only is he friendly and loyal, he's also a bit of a comedian - always making his human friends laugh. He's a clever boy who loves to show off his tricks (and he has a lot of them!). He's also a total couch potato and loves nothing more than a good snuggle sesh. Kayak is great with other dogs. So if you're looking for a sweet, funny, and adorable dog, Kayak is the one for you! Meet Kayak! Breed: lab/pit bull mix. Age: almost 4 years (est birthdate 1/30/22) Weight: approx 50lbs right now. Training: crate, leash, and house trained. He could use more practice on the leash. Good with other dogs/cats? Yes to both! Good with adults/kids? Yes, although he can be a little reserved at first. Personality: reserved at first, but that doesn't last long, he warms up to be very silly, submissive, friendly, playful. Loves toys and belly rubs. He is very loyal. Reason for rescue: originallly - dumped in a neighborhood. Kayak was adopted as a pup. Recently, we received a call from animal control through his microchip that he had been picked up. Apparently, the adopter rehomed him without reaching out to us at all. They didn't even have the name of the 'current owner' they rehomed him to. We commit to our animals for life, they ALWAYS have a safe place to come back to. Kayak needs and deserves a FOREVER home! Kayak is neutered, heartworm negative, microchipped, and current on vaccinations and preventatives. If interested in adding this sweet baby to your family, please message for an adoption application!

Story
Meet Charlotte aka Lotte! Age: approx 10 years. Breed: pit bull mix. Size: approx 45-50lbs. Training: leash and crate trained, she is doing well with house training. Good with dogs/cats? Yes to dogs, no to cats. Good with men/women/kids? Yes! She loves EVERYONE! Personality: friendly, affectionate. Loves to cuddle. Reason for rescue: Charlotte was turned into a kill shelter after her owners claimed she bit them. This sweet girl isn't aggressive AT ALL. If you met her, you would understand. But because they claimed that, the shelter marked her rescue only and she was scheduled to be killed if no rescue stepped up. A foster volunteered to save her just in time. We don't know the situation surrounding Lotte's surrender. We do know from experience, sometimes people lie to make themselves look better when getting rid of their dog. Come meet Lotte and decide for yourself. She is the sweetest girl! Lotte is spayed, heartworm negative, microchipped and current on vaccinations and preventatives. If you are interested in adding this sweet lady to your family, please message for an adoption application. Adoption fee: no fee to the perfect forever home!

Story
Meet Demi, a sweet baby who ended up at our local intake county shelter with terrible skin issues. We snatched her out of there, got her to our vets where we discovered she had demodex mange ( not contagious). She is on the road to recovery and will be available soon for adoption. She is a sweet, active girl who needs a family to grow up with. If you are that family, please continue reading and fill out our on line app. RECOMMENDATIONS & PROCEDURES Please note, the following are recommendations for puppies and different breeds of dogs. We will evaluate each application on an individual basis to see what is best for the dog/puppy and the potential adopter. Puppies are very fragile and not toys. We recommend children be at least six years old to be considered to adopt a puppy. Small breed dogs ( such as chihuahuas, yorkies, shih tzus , etc) we recommend children be at least eight years old. Herding, working breeds we recommend children to be at least 12 years old. Again these are recommendations. Adoption Procedures: We will travel up to two hours ( one way) to do physical home visits and we do not do virtual home visits. Most of our dogs come from bad situations and we want to know where their forever home is going to be. While we do not require fencing on all dogs, certain dogs that need a fenced in yard, will not be adopted unless potential adopter has one. We also adopt some dogs to people who live in apartments ( as long as the landlord approves) but not all dogs. We do not adopt to anyone under 21 years of age. We also do not feel college students are the best fit for most of our dogs. Most of our dogs again, come from bad situations and need lots of attention. Most college students have financial responsibilities and we feel need to be focused on school. Our goal is to match the dog with a family that fits the dog’s needs. We are solely focused on what is best for each dog in our rescue. These dogs have had enough moving around, dumped out like trash, and we want to ensure they find their forever home. We do require you sign a contract and if at any time you cannot continue to provide for the dog, the dog comes back to the rescue. Your first step to adoption is filling our our on line application. You will then get an automated email stating we got your application Next our adoption coordinator will be in touch either by phone or email If your references check out, a home visit will be scheduled. After the home visit is done, a meet and greet with the dog you are interested in and/or any other available dogs we have will be scheduled If the dog and you are a match, contract will be signed and you may take your new family member home.
