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.

What kind of home would be best for me? Cassie needs an adopter who can offer her the love and care she has never known. As a breeder release dog, she hasn't had the benefit of a loving, nurturing home. She'll need a special person who has an abundance of patience, time, and commitment to help her blossom into the happy, loving companion she has the potential to be. While we give her as much love as we can here, Cassie will thrive in a home where she has one-on-one attention and training, ideally with someone who is home most or all of the day.
Cassie would do well whether her adopter is a single person, a couple, or a family. Because she is still shy and fearful of new things, if adopted by a family Cassie would do better with older children (12+ years old) who can be respectful of her. Cassie does require another large, confident dog in the home. She has never lived without canine companions and needs a confident companion that will help teach her how to be a pet.
What is my personality like? Meet Cassie, a beautiful Irish Setter who's looking for a loving forever home. Cassie came to us after retiring from a breeder. Cassie is now ready to find a forever home filled with patience, love, and understanding as she adjusts to life as a beloved pet.
Like many breeder release dogs Cassie is experiencing many things for the first time. She is learning that people can be very nice to be around - and they often have treats! Despite not having much human interaction she enjoys being with people but is it tad reserved upon first meeting. It's quickly apparent that she loves people and the loving attention she gets from them. Her tail wags at around 100 mph when she gets loving!
Cassie is already walking on a leash but still needs help learning basic commands like down , come, sit, stay, etc. With some time and patience, she will become a wonderful addition to any home. Cassie is still adjusting to the world around her and can be reserved and cautious at first. But with time, she opens up and enjoys attention and affection from people.
How do I act when I first meet new people? Cassie is a bit shy when meeting new people but quickly warms up. After a few minutes, she'll lean in for pets and enjoy all the love you have to offer.
Other tips and tidbits: Cassie's birthday is 5/28/2018.
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.
