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

Fence needed? Without exception - Gracie would not do well without secure fences to play and potty. She is an escape artist and is an expert at darting through gates. She does not go far but we are on a farm and there are no road or cars near to our fences. If she lives in suburbia, she needs a very secure fence with no holes along the bottom, and you need to ensure she is safe inside before going out the gate. Alternately, she could live in an apartment that opens only into an interior, enclosed hallway.
Gracie is looking to bond to someone and once that happens, she is not going to leave your side. But it's going to take time.
What kind of home would be best for me? Gracie is looking for a home that will understand her shyness and help her grow into the wonderful little dog we think she can be. She is not afraid of people, but she is not yet close to any of us, either. We think, with time, that will come. She has always, as far as we know, been one of many dogs.
Gracie does not necessarily play with other dogs, but she enjoys the company of other adult dogs who like to hang out. She does not seem to care large or small. She was with many different sizes of dogs and has no real preference as long as those dogs are mature and settled. She isn't much for puppies that want to do zoomies and play roughhouse games. She is a lady.
We have no idea how or if Gracie would transition to an only dog home. First preference will be to homes with another dog in the home. Gracie has always had canine companions.
Gracie will NOT be adopted to a first-time dog owner. She needs experience.
What is my personality like? Quirky, stand offish, a little sassy. One of our caregivers adores Yorkshire terriers and has two of her own. Gracie loves her. How she knows that Leigha is a yorkie person we are not sure, but she knows for sure.
How do I act when I first meet new people? Not a fan thanks. You need to earn her trust.
Other tips and tidbits: Gracie's estimated birthday is 3/17/2019. The original owner was uncertain of the exact age, but this appears right.
We've found out that Gracie LOVES to go for long walks in the woods. If your looking for a walking companion, Gracie says she thinks woods are cool.
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.
