Venetia Nov 23 Labrador Retriever Pacolet, SC

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

What kind of home would be best for me? Venetia was found as a stray, tied to our gate overnight. We are thankful her leash held securely and that this beautiful girl didn't get into the busy road in front of our rescue. We will never know the circumstances leading to Venetia's "surrender" to rescue. We do know that she is a wonderful dog. We are teaching her there is kindness for dogs in the world.

Venetia loves all dogs. She is most comfortable with another dog by her side. We have seen her come out of her shell quickly with another dog around versus alone. If she had words they would say 'it's a lot of pressure to be social on my own, it's easier with a friend'. Venetia gravitates to the most confident dog in her area and we are asking her home have one as well. Venetia thinks cats are terrifying and runs away from them.

What is my personality like? Venetia is a lab lover's dream. She is gentle, loyal and has a forgiving and loving heart. True to breed, Venetia is great with people once she gets to know you. She loves hard and loves fast when she feels safe.

How do I act when I first meet new people? Shy but curious about people.

Other tips and tidbits: Venetia was abandoned at our rescue. We have absolutely no history on her. Based on her overall health and condition, she is estimated at 2 years old. We celebrate her birthday 11/15/2021.

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.
