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?

Rocco is all puppy - and as a puppy he has been known to eat things he should not. His toys need to be sturdy ones. Rocco is neutered, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative. Weight: 44 lbs Height: 24 in at the shoulder - estimate Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $599 Fence needed? Yes - Rocco needs a minimum 4' or higher physical fence What kind of home would be best for me? Rocco is a nearly two-year-old, beautiful phantom black and white standard poodle who is looking for his first forever home. Rocco was a breeder release. His breeder has kennels near to her house and rotates the dogs through her home regularly. He's never had a full time, permanent inside home and that is his first thing on this wish list. Rocco wants a home where his adopter will be his constant companion and teacher as well as provide him with all the love he has yet to receive from his very own human. His adopter needs the following in abundance: patience, love, understanding, compassion, forgiveness, calmness, and empathy. Rocco needs to learn how to walk on a leash as well as learn all the basic commands such as sit, stay, down, etc. Please understand Rocco will require extra care transitioning into your home. This is a rehabilitation process for him. Adopting Rocco is a commitment to building trust with him, showing him how to be social, house training him, and possibly dealing with separation anxiety. A home with another dog would be ideal as it will help Rocco learn to be a dog. He needs to be in a home without children because sudden noises and movements frighten him. We know his special adopter, in time, will see Rocco become a wonderful dog and beloved pet. He needs a home with a fenced in yard that is four feet tall or taller. What is my personality like? Rocco is shy, timid, fearful, and very wary of nearly everything. As a breeder release who has lived his life on a country farm, most every suburban experience is brand new to him, from walking on a leash, to interacting with loving people. You will teach him everything. The adopter who opens their heart to this guy will most assuredly have an immensely rewarding experience watching Rocco develop into your BFF. Carolina Poodle Rescue is pleased to work with breeders who are eager to have their dogs find a home. When our site mentions breeder release, we want adopters and supporters to know that this dog will require extra care transitioning into your home. Please know this is a rehabilitation process for the dog. It is a commitment to showing the dog how to be social, building trust, house training, and separation anxiety. Many people use these phrases to describe the rehabilitation process as watching a dog ‘blooming’ or ‘coming out of their shell’. It is a highly rewarding process for you and the dog. We are here to help you support your commitment to your dog. How do I act when I first meet new people? Rocco is uncertain of this new world he has found himself in. He had no idea there were so many people in the world and so much real estate . Rocco needs loving guidance on how to become the dog you want him to be. He's patiently waiting for you to come get him so he can start down the path to the life he's been dreaming of. Other tips and tidbits: Rocco was born on 5/23/2022. Rocco has not been tested yet with cats. 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 .carolinapoodlerescue 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.
