Rescue Poodles are normally adult dogs. Adults have their own personality and know doggy behavior
rules, although it does not mean that you won't have to train a rescue Poodle. The fact is that a rescue dog might need even more attention. You should understand that rescues are not the right place to look for Poodles of a show dog appearance and temperament.
All rescue Poodles have been neutered or spayed. They have had their shots, have been wormed, vet checked, house trained and treated for medical problems, if there are any. If there are any problems, a potential adopter will be instructed on how to deal with them. People-oriented and friendly, in most cases, Poodles adjust very well to their new situation.
Rescue groups and organizations hope to find permanent homes for their Poodles. Any person interested in adopting a Poodle should fill out an application form. The main goal is to find a perfect
match. You may be put on a waiting list if there is no available rescue Poodle
matching your requirements.
It is a good idea to foster a Poodle while you are considering whether to adopt a Poodle and if it is the right decision for you and your family. This way, you will get valuable experience in caring for the Poodle. Numerous success stories prove that there are few things as challenging and rewarding as adopting unwanted Poodles and making them feel needed and loved.
