Save A Life Rescue A Poodle Today

If you're ready to get a Poodle don't go to the puppy store at the mall or even to a poodle breeder. Contact a poodle rescue organization to see what kinds of homeless poodles they have available for adoption. By rescuing a poodle, you can get a purebred dog without paying a purebred Poodle price, and your dog gets a new home with a loving owner. Any family needing a pet cannot go wrong at a Poodle rescue center.

Perfectly good poodles of all sizes end up in Poodle rescue for a variety of reasons. Some owners abandon their dogs, and they end up in Poodle rescue. Other owners surrender their dogs to Poodle rescue because they can no longer afford to care for them, or because their housing situation has changed so that it is no longer practical for them to keep a dog. A small number of owners give up their dogs because they have a new spouse or child that is allergic to the dog or, for whatever reasons the new relationship interferes with dog ownership.

Poodle rescues work with families, owners, shelters and veterinarians to make sure all rescue dogs are groomed, given a health examination, and are current in their vaccinations and heartworm medications. All those procedures cost money, and your adoption fee helps pay for all the care Poodle rescue had to give your dog before you adopted it.

When you adopt a dog from Poodle rescue you are charged a fee based on the age and condition of your dog to help cover Poodle rescue's operating expenses. Poodle rescue organizations are independently licensed from state to state, but most if not all are 501(c)3 non-profit, tax-exempt organizations.

Poodles that are not already spayed or neutered have the procedure done before they are put up for adoption. Your fee helps pay for the medical cost of the surgery and for the cost of a foster family to care for your dog while it recuperates.

Poodle rescue has offices in every state, and the dogs that are available for adoption in each state vary from one location to another. Once you start looking at the dogs available for adoption, you'll see how many there are to choose from.

Applicants to adopt a Poodle into a permanent home must complete an application process that includes a home visit. Potential owners must be twenty-one yeas of age or older, provide landlord permission to have a dog if they are renters, and commit to get regular grooming for the dog.

The application also asks about prior dog ownership and what kind of activity level the owner has. Your new Poodle awaits you at a Poodle rescue near you.
