~~Rescue Roots Run Deep~~ 


Poodle and Pooch Rescue was on the front cover of Urban Pet Magazine this month.  They highlighted one of our very special volunteers, Nini Underwood shown above with our fearless leader, Donna Ticknor.  They asked us if they could write about our group and all of the special needs dogs that we save.  We happily accepted and gave them some insight into the world of our rescue.  We pride ourselves on not just saving dogs, but also teaching the next generation how important it is to care for these animals that depend on us.  We welcome volunteers of all ages and so do our pooches.     


~Touched by an Angel~ 

Meet Angel, our Dapple Dachshund.  Angel came straight to our vet, infested with fleas suffering from a pretty nasty skin and ear infection and her teeth were in pretty bad shape.  Angel came in with her sister, both of which were neglected and terrified.  After our vets examined her sister, they determined that her health was so bad that it was best to send her over the rainbow bridge.  She had tumors covering both sides of her little body and all over her abdomen.  The tumors were so large that they were dragging on the floor.  Angel was the "lucky" one out of the two.  Angel had her teeth cleaned and she is on antibiotics for her skin and ears.  She is still scared and not sure where her sister is, but her foster mom is giving her all of the love and comfort that Angel so desperately needed.  

 
Please help us afford Angel's care with a donation.  Thank you.



Save a Dog on Death Row 

Welcome to Poodle and Pooch Rescue!

Poodle and Pooch Rescue is a 501(c)3 approved non profit organization that rescues dogs that truly need help.  All donations are tax-deductible.  We have many older, special needs dogs because these are the dogs that need us.  Other rescue groups scoop up the young, highly adoptable dogs from animal control.  We rescue the "leftovers" -- the ones they don't want because the dog is older or isn't perfect due to a medical condition.   These are the dogs we save, so their "last" day becomes the first day of their new life.  We provide the veterinary care they need and a foster family they love.  When they're ready, we match them with a special family who cherishes them for the rest of their lives.  We are all volunteers, nobody is paid. 


Double the fun! Meet Buttons and Bouncer.... 
 
Buttons and Bouncer are a dynamic duo that are available for adoption.  They are sweet, gentle little guys that love each other very much and couldn’t bear to be apart so they are looking for a home that would gladly adopt two little fluffy balls of love!  These boys came to us scared, abandoned and all they had was each other.  They are ready for a new start and a new life.  Please visit them on our Adoptables Page.
 
 

Cristen Loves All PPR Pooches! 


Cristen is a PPR volunteer and foster mom.  She opens up her home to one and often times two dogs to make sure that bonded pairs stay together.  Cristen makes sure her fosters are spoiled with lots of belly rubs and walks around the neighborhood.  Without volunteers like Cristen, these dogs wouldn't have a second chance at life.  

From Homeless to Homemade Birthday Cakes! Chelsea hit the jackpot! 



Nancy sent us the below email to update us on Tina, now known as Chelsea.... 

"I adopted “Tina” from you back in November. We changed her name to “Chelsea” which seemed to better fit her royal personality. These are pics taken last week when she turned 2. Don’t worry, the cake was doggie friendly. You can see the results of training with her waiting for permission to begin eating. Thanks for sharing her with us. I am not sure who rescued who!"
