Description:
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 [email protected] with your name, address and phone # and email.

Tux would thrive in a household with a single person, a couple, or a family as long as they are home most of the day to keep him company. He’s a very active dog and can be a bit jumpy, so if there are children in the home, they should be older to avoid getting knocked over during his playful moments. Tux loves to jump up and give hugs to everyone and anyone. Tux would love to accompany you on all kinds of adventures—whether it’s a walk in the woods, a hike in the mountains, a trip to the beach, or even a simple run down the street to grab a pup cup. He’s a great walking companion and is eager to explore. Tux is a happy, energetic boy who enjoys life to the fullest. He gets along well with every dog he’s met here at the farm, and his playful energy will bring joy to any home. However, his enthusiasm might be too much for cats, so we recommend a home without them unless they’re very playful and can keep up with his energy. What is my personality like? Meet Tux, a big, playful boy who is looking for his forever home! Tux came to us as an owner surrender after being kept in a crate with another large dog, which led to constant fighting. Thankfully, a neighbor encouraged his owner to surrender him to us, and now Tux is ready to find a loving home where he can be the center of attention. Despite his challenging past, Tux has shown no aggression toward other dogs here at the farm. He absolutely loves people and is happiest when he’s around them. However, Tux can be quite vocal when left alone, especially if he’s separated from his people, so he may not be a good fit for apartment or townhome living. A home with a fenced-in yard where Tux can run and play safely would be ideal for him. While Tux walks well on a leash, he will need some basic training on commands like "come," "sit," "down," and "stay." The time you spend teaching him these commands will help build a strong bond with your new best friend. Please be aware that Tux loves to dig, so you’ll need to supervise him when he's outside to prevent him from creating any holes in the yard. Considering his past, Tux is doing wonderfully and is ready to make a great companion for the right family. If you have the time, space, and love to offer, Tux would be thrilled to meet you and join you in a wonderful life together! How do I act when I first meet new people? Tux loves attention and affection from people, but he’s especially excited when they engage with him in play. He’s always ready for some fun and will make you laugh with his antics. Other tips and tidbits: Tux was born on 8/31/2022. 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.
