Poodle and Pooch Rescue

Hi, I’m Hamlet . . . I’m a 3-year-old Yorkshire Terrier blend who weighs 17 lbs. I’m an affectionate boy looking for my “FUR”ever home.  Not to toot my own horn, but I’m looking pretty dapper after my fresh groom. I will need a special person who can accept me just the way I am.

General Behavior: Hamlet is a curious, clever, and playful young boy. He’s got tons of charm and makes sure to show it!

Likes & Dislikes: Hamlet would rate snuggling high on his list of favorite things. In fact, this lovebug wants to snuggle as much as possible and give lots of kisses. Although he is quite playful, he doesn’t seem to have much interest in toys. He can be anxious during nighttime walks or when noises startle him, but we are hopeful this will improve with time (and knowing that he is safe with his new human).

Training: Hamlet has done fabulously with house training and will need to continue being let out on a frequent and consistent schedule. He walks well on a leash and loves car rides. He still needs to work on his basic manners, but he’s a smart boy and food-motivated, which will be helpful for additional training.

Medical: Hamlet will only require his monthly heartworm and flea/tick prevention, just like any other dog.

Other Animals: Having spent time on the streets, Hamlet is unsure about other animals. For that reason, Hamlet will need to be the only dog in the home. A home without cats will also be required.

Children: Hamlet has no experience with children. Due to his inexperience, small size, and anxiousness, a home without children is necessary. This requirement is essential to set Hamlet up for success.

Home: Happy Hamlet will need to live in a single-family home. He tends to bark when left alone, so homes with shared walls would not be suitable. A new human willing to work with him on his anxiety will be needed. At night, Hamlet is happy to sleep in the "big person" bed and, guess what? SNUGGLE!

Grooming: Hamlet will need regular brushing, nail trims, and professional grooming. The cost of grooming should be something a potential adopter considers.

Overall: With positive training and reinforcement, along with a patient and committed human, the sky's the limit for Hamlet. He would make the perfect snuggle buddy and has lots of love to offer.

Hi, I’m Jojo! I’m a 1-year-old Border Collie blend who weighs 38 lbs. I’m looking for snuggles, snacks, and someone special who will love me forever.

General Behavior:  Jojo is a sweet boy! He wants to be near people and is gaining his confidence. An active and athletic dog, Jojo will do best with someone who can continue his basic training (with cheese, he loves cheese) and give him plenty of walks and or runs.

Likes & Dislikes: Jojo doesn’t need a pile of toys: he just wants to be near his people and eat cheese (his favorite treat).

Training: Jojo is a smart cookie! He is housetrained if let out frequently and he will let you know when he needs to go out. He is working on basic commands and in a short time, he has learned “sit” and “hold” (with the help of some cheese treats). With a gentle leader, he is learning to walk on a leash. He sleeps in his dog bed at night.

Medical: Jojo is a healthy boy! He just needs his monthly flea and heartworm preventatives, like any dog.

Other Animals: So far, Jojo has got on well with all other dogs and even cats! He would love another doggie playmate in his forever home. 

Children: Jojo hasn’t been observed around children yet.

Home: Jojo is an energetic young guy, so he would do best in a home with an active family. Other than that, he's not picky!

Grooming: Apart from brushing and baths, Jojo should not need much elaborate grooming.

Overall: Jojo will make a wonderful companion for an active family who can train him and love him forever.

You’ll be put in contact with the foster family for more information if it’s a potential match. He is up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped, and neutered. His adoption donation is $400.

***Local adoption only: Julep needs a family in the Central Florida region (Orlando area) who will commit to taking her to her spay and to follow-up vetting appointments with PPR’s vetting partner. The cost of these appointments is covered by her donation amount.***

Hi, I’m Julep! I’m a three-month old terrier blend who weighs 20 lbs at the moment. We’re not sure how big I’ll grow, but I do know that I’m one part shy, one part playful, and two parts love!

General Behavior: Julep is a puppy full of love who loves adventures and going on walks. She is a little timid around men and will sometimes bark, but this is improving with patient training. 

Likes & Dislikes:  Juelp loves to play and receive praise. She particularly loves fenced yards where she can run around and play with toys. She is still learning how toys work, though: for example, she brings back a frisbee, but really doesn’t know how to go get it.

Training: Julep is a little lady! She is making good progress on her housetraining if let out frequently. She walks well on a leash. She is even learning basic command and has mastered “sit” for a treat. She also stays when you open the front door and doesn’t try to run out.

Medical: Julep is a healthy girl! She will only need monthly flea and heartworm preventatives, like any dog. Julep also needs a family in the Central Florida region (Orlando area) who will commit to taking her to follow-up vetting appointments with PPR’s vetting partner. These appointments have already been scheduled, and their cost is covered by her donation amount. 

Other Animals:  Julep loves other dogs! She would do best with a medium to large dogs, as she doesn’t realize her size around smaller dogs. She hasn’t been observed around cats, but her foster thinks she’d be OK with them.

Children: Gentle Julep is good with children of all ages. 

Home: Julep would do well in a condo, apartment, or single-family home.

Grooming: With her short hair, it doesn’t seem like Julep will need much elaborate grooming apart from brushing, baths, and nail trims.

Overall: Julep will make a wonderful companion for an active family who can raise her, train her, and lover her forever.

Are you and Julep “mint” to be together? Then visit our website www.PoodleandPoochRescue.org where you will find the application to adopt. You’ll be put in contact with the foster family for more information if it’s a potential match. She is up to date on vaccines.  Her adoption donation is $450.
