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 .carolinapoodlerescue 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.

No What kind of home would be best for me? This sweet boy is on the lookout for a calm, loving home where he can finally experience what it means to be someone’s cherished lap dog. Tonka’s greatest joy is being close to his people — he soaks up attention and affection and loves nothing more than curling up beside you for a nap or some quiet time. Tonka gets along well with other dogs and enjoys their company, though he would be perfectly happy as your one-and-only pup too. He loves spending time outside, whether it’s exploring the yard, feeling the breeze, or lounging in the sun. If you are considering adopting Tonka - a dog raised in a breeding facility - please read this important article before you submit an application: bestfriends/pet-care-resources/what-expect-when-rescuing-puppy-mill-dog What is my personality like? Meet Tonka, an adorable Yorkie with a big heart and an even bigger desire to be your loyal little shadow. While Tonka is affectionate, he may need a moment to get to know new people before showing his true, loving personality. Once he feels safe, his gentle and warm nature shines through, and you’ll find yourself with a devoted companion who wants to be near you wherever you go. As a former breeder dog, Tonka spent his earlier life outdoors, so the comforts of indoor living are still new to him. He’s learning quickly, though, and it’s clear he appreciates the warmth, safety, and love that come with being part of a home. With a little patience and gentle guidance, he’ll continue to master his house manners and daily routines. Tonka is a fast learner with a sweet, eager-to-please spirit. He’s ready to trade the outdoor life for soft beds, cozy laps, and endless love. If you’re looking for a small, affectionate companion who just wants to be by your side — and in your heart — Tonka is ready to fill that role perfectly. How do I act when I first meet new people? Tonka is like a slow burn - it takes a few minutes, but once he warms up, his heart is yours! Other tips and tidbits: Tonka's birthday is 11/7/2020. 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 .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.
