Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption

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

Date into Rescue:1/28/2026
Reason for being in rescue: Jollie was abandoned at a shelter in New Mexico. Carolina Poodle Rescue pulled him from the shelter.
Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet SC
Special Needs? Jollie is neutered, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative. Our vet noted Jollie has an undershot jaw - he rocks a cute underbite. We have no history on Jollie pre-rescue. He is a terrier mix. He is not hypoallergenic and will shed.
Weight: 28 lbs
Height: 14 in
Spayed/Neutered: Yes

Adoption Fee: $499

Fence needed? No, but he would love one to run around and play in!

What kind of home would be best for me? Jollie is an easygoing boy who would fit well into many different home environments. He is good with other small dogs but would be happy being your best boy and only companion. He will need a little time to adjust to household routines and expectations, but with patience and structure, he’s sure to become a happy, well-rounded companion for his future family.

What is my personality like? Jollie’s journey to rescue was an unusual on. He was left in a drop box in New Mexico and made his way across the country with a truck driver and 13 other dogs. What a story! Along the way, he discovered that he loves car rides and enjoys watching the world pass by through the window, making him a great companion for outings and adventures.

At an estimated two years old, Jollie is a terrier mix with a soft, fluffy coat and a personality that’s just as lovable as his looks. Friendly and outgoing, he genuinely enjoys people and is happiest when he can be part of whatever is going on - especially if it involves fresh air and time outside. Jollie enjoys playtime, affection, and exploring the world around him, but he’s also attentive and eager to please. He will benefit from basic training, including leash skills and learning cues like sit and come, and he’s the kind of dog who should pick those things up nicely with consistency and positive guidance.

Affectionate, playful, and naturally obedient, Jollie is ready to settle into a real home.

How do I act when I first meet new people? Jollie does not meet a stranger and is very confident in all situations and environments!

Other tips and tidbits: We have no history on Jollie pre-rescue. Based on his overall health and condition he is estimated at 18 months old. We celebrate his birthday 7/28/2024.

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.
