Sprinkle 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   Date into Rescue: 06/04/2025 Reason for being in rescue: Raleigh Puppy Mill bust Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet SC Special Needs? Sprinkle is spayed, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative. On 07/16/25 she had a dental with extractions. Sprinkle 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 Sprinkle is a maltese, 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: 6.5 lbs Height: 12 in Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $399 Fence needed? No What kind of home would be best for me? This petite white pup is taking her very first steps into what it means to be a beloved pet. For Sprinkle, the world is a brand-new place — full of soft beds, gentle voices, and kind hands she's never known until now. It’s all new, and while she’s curious, she’s cautious too. She’s looking for a home with another friendly dog who can help show her the ropes — someone to play with, learn from, and lean on when things feel uncertain. Around confident canine companions, Sprinkle blossoms so much faster. If her friend walks up for pets, she’s suddenly brave too. If they play, she plays. If they love, she learns to love. Sprinkle is looking for a family with patience and soft voices, a calm home where play and love go hand-in-hand, and where someone understands that she’s learning what it means to belong. Sprinkle may not rush to the party - but give her time, and she’ll be the sweetest little soul in the room. A quiet joy, a soft transformation - the sweetest kind of love story. What is my personality like? Meet Sprinkle — A Dash of Sugar, A Pinch of Hope, and a Whole Lot of Heart. Like her name suggests, Sprinkle is that little extra something sweet — the soft, quiet kind of magic that makes life just a little brighter… once you know she’s there. Sprinkle adores attention - she truly does - but she needs a moment. A moment to believe she’s safe. A moment to realize that love is hers to keep this time. And once she trusts you, she leans in gently, soaking up every kind word and gentle touch like sunlight on her back. One thing she’s still trying to wrap her head around - Leashes. They’re completely foreign to her, and right now they’re more confusing than comforting. She’ll need a lot of patience, positive experiences, and gentle encouragement to learn that a leash isn’t something to fear — it’s a promise of adventure, and of safety, too. Are you ready to show Sprinkle the love she's never known, and give her the life she’s always deserved! Because sometimes, all it takes is a Sprinkle… to make everything better. How do I act when I first meet new people? Sprinkle adores attention - she truly does - but she needs a moment. A moment to believe she’s safe. A moment to realize that love is hers to keep this time. And once she trusts you, she leans in gently, soaking up every kind word and gentle touch like sunlight on her back. Other tips and tidbits: Sprinkle is estimated at 2 years old. We celebrate her birthday 06/09/2023. 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 18, 2025, 8:50 am
