Scout Jun 25

My story

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 applications@carolinapoodlerescue.org with your name, address and phone # and email.  We'll add you to our mailing list. thanks the CPR Adoption team   Susan and Brad Fuast Columbia SCDate into Rescue: 06/04/2025 Reason for being in rescue: Raleigh Puppy Mill bust Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet SC Special Needs? Scout is spayed, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative. On 06/26/25 she had a dental with extractions. Scout arrived in rescue from poor conditions. She and all the dogs in the home have been proactively treated for mange. Our best guess is that Scout is a poodle mix but she came from a puppy mill where there were also chihuahuas and pomeranians. We cannot guarantee that she is hypoallergenic or that she won't shed. Weight: 8.7 lbs Height: 12 in Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $399 Fence needed? No What kind of home would be best for me? Scout's ideal home is tranquil, steady, and gentle. Scout would be overwhelmed by a loud or rowdy environment—no bustling schedules, sudden noises, or wild energy. She thrives where the days are soft and predictable, where the humans speak kindly and move gently, and where there’s room to exhale. Another dog in the home is an absolute must for Scout. She looks to her furry friends for reassurance, follows their lead, and gains courage from their calm confidence. Whether it’s a slow stroll through the yard or a quiet moment on the couch, she’s happiest when she’s not alone in her journey. What is my personality like? Meet Scout – A Delicate Darling in Search of Stillness and Sweet Companionship. Scout is a quiet little soul with a heart full of hope. She’s not looking for chaos or commotion—she’s looking for peace. The kind of peace that comes with slow mornings, warm laps, gentle words, and the presence of someone who understands that love, like trust, sometimes blooms best in stillness. Now, let’s talk about leashes. Scout… is not a fan. She finds them a bit alarming, to be honest. If she had it her way, she’d prefer to be carried like the princess she truly is. Wrapped in your arms, tucked close to your chest—that’s where she feels safest, bravest, and most at peace. Scout is looking for guidance, not perfection. She’s looking for a family who will meet her where she is, who will walk slowly beside her (or carry her when needed), and who understands that the most beautiful bonds are the ones that grow gently, day by day. If your heart beats a little slower, if your home is a haven, and if your arms are ready to hold a dog who just wants to feel safe, Scout is waiting. She won’t ask for much—just patience, love, a furry best friend, and a quiet place to finally call home. How do I act when I first meet new people? Scout isn’t the kind of pup who bursts into a room. She tiptoes. Watches. Waits. She may not climb into your arms right away, but give her time, patience, and kindness, and you’ll soon find her curled against you, melting into your affection like she’s been there forever. Other tips and tidbits: Scout is estimated at 4 years old. We celebrate her birthday 06/05/2021. 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. July 15, 2025, 8:58 am
