Adopt

Why am I with a rescue group? 

Cody will need a special adopter to work developing him into a loving pet. He needs plenty of help in his behavior modification. Cody is not for the first-time dog owner. Only a very experienced owner that understands shy, under socialized, or feral dogs will be able to adopt Cody. He requires another confident dog in the home, a canine buddy to follow, learn from, and model behaviors. Cody has never lived in a home which means that everything will be new for him. Potty training, leash work, commands etc. will all need to be developed. He will take time in the home to develop his socialization skills and to completely trust people. Cody will not be placed in a home with children. The home Cody goes to must have a fenced yard. It is essential that training is a priority for Cody and his forever family.

Cody is skittish. Sudden movements and loud noises make him nervous. He needs a quiet, consistent, patient environment. During his time here at CPR he has learned to trust his caregivers. Cody has learned he can trust us to give him a safe space to sleep and that he won't go hungry. His caregivers have been working to gain his trust with hand feeding and working on his leash walking. His leash walking is still a work in progress. Cody is very food motivated and will take food from your hand. Even with food as an enticement, he does not allow you to pet him. Cody is quirky, he can be vocal and even let out howls at times. He does very well with the routine and structure here at CPR and we would like a home to mimic this. Cody needs a home that understands it might take him a second to get into the swing of things in his new environment. Cody has been known to nip one on the behind when you aren't looking, to get your attention.

Can’t have a dog of your own? Have a soft spot for old, sick or hard to place dogs? It only takes a $20 a month donation for me to be your virtual dog!  I need at least 10 virtual adopters (sponsors) to help cover my monthly costs.  If I have medical challenges I need even more!  The caregivers at Carolina Poodle Rescue will do the rest.  Just think, without ever having to leave your home, you can have your very own online dog that will send you update emails, make Facebook posts, and be eternally grateful for your support!  Go to the donate link at the top of the page for instructions as to how to donate.
