ife 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 Let's turn this bad start into a happy ending. Date into Rescue: 11/9/2017 Reason for being in rescue: Pulled from a NC shelter, she was seized from her original owners due to animal cruelty Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet SC Special Needs? Happy is heartworm positive (HW+). She will be sent home with a year's supply of heartworm prevention medication. She is being treated for her heartworms with a method called the slow kill treatment. She takes a monthly Ivermectin based heartworm preventative and needs to be re-tested for heartworms every 6 months. Once she tests negative, then she can take any kind of heartworm preventative; she is not restricted to Ivermectin based only. BEFORE CONSIDERING A HEARTWORM POSITIVE DOG, PLEASE TALK TO YOUR VET OR THEIR SUGGESTED PROTOCOLS AND CHECK COSTS. Happy is also an epileptic. She is controlled with phenobarbital. Weight: about 40 lb Height: about 22 in at the shoulder Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $1 - I am priceless. Fence needed? No What kind of home would be best for me? Happy Rose has only one request - please feed me regularly. What is my personality like? Happy is a simple girl who likes the simple things in life. She wants a warm spot by the fire, a few walks a day and to be important enough to you to take care of her. Turns out that Happy Rose knows how to sit and give paw. She loves belly rubs and long walks around new places she can sniff out. You can do any and everything to this girl and she would still remain true to her name, Happy! How do I act when I first meet new people? A little shy but warms up quickly. Other tips and tidbits: Happy was seized and her first owners cited for cruelty for starving her. Then the shelter who had her declared she had to be put down because they had no room and they had held her too long. The very nice people who first alerted animal control to Happy panicked and reached out to us. She is not our normal type of dog - but she was a dog in need and two of our volunteers had been deeply touched by her story and felt she was worth saving. 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.
