Poodle and Pooch Rescue

Hi! I'm Caraxes! I'm a 10-year-old Rat Terrier that weighs 13 lbs. My name may sound a bit more combat-ready than I am, but don't let the name fool you—I'm much more interested in snacks, snuggles, and living my best cozy life! After all, every good dragon rider needs a loyal companion, right?

Favorite Things: This little guy is a FOODIE! If you've got yummy snacks, Caraxes will be your new best friend! He's not much of a toy guy, but he's always happy to curl up with his favorite human for some quality snuggle time. His love language? Treats and companionship!

Training & Manners: Caraxes is a quiet gentleman with wonderful manners who enjoys napping in his bed and sharing his space with other dogs. He's still gaining confidence with leash walking and working on his housetraining. His foster mom keeps him on a consistent routine, but he may still have accidents, so his adopter should be prepared to continue working with him patiently and consistently.

Health and Care: Caraxes is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. He will need monthly heartworm and flea prevention like any other Florida pup.

Other Animals: Other dogs are a-okay with Caraxes! He's patient and easygoing, even with pups who aren't quite as well-mannered as he is. He hasn't been introduced to cats, so any feline introductions would need to be slow, careful, and supervised.

Children: Caraxes has not interacted with children. Because he is shy and reserved, we believe older children who understand how to be gentle, respectful, and patient would be the best fit.

Ideal Home: Caraxes needs a patient and understanding family willing to give him time to build confidence. New situations can be scary for this sensitive little guy, and even going outside can sometimes make him nervous. A securely fenced yard is imperative since he isn't comfortable walking on a leash yet, and his adopter should be committed to helping him continue building confidence and mastering his housetraining.

Overall: Caraxes is a sweet, quiet, affectionate little guy looking for a safe place to land. He may be shy at first, but underneath his cautious exterior is a gentle companion who loves snacks, cozy beds, and being near his people. He'll need someone willing to give him time, patience, and plenty of reassurance, but watching him blossom could be incredibly rewarding. He may not be the fearsome dragon his name suggests, but with the right person by his side, Caraxes is ready to discover just how wonderful life can be!

If you think Caraxes may be the one, please visit www.PoodleandPoochRescue.org and submit an adoption application. If it looks like a good fit, his foster family will reach out with more information. Caraxes' adoption donation is $300.

Hi! I'm Carrie, an 11-month-old Labradoodle weighing 40 pounds! I’m a bright, bouncy girl with plenty of puppy enthusiasm and a heart full of love. I’m always eager to explore, play, and make new friends, and my silly personality is sure to keep you entertained. If you’re looking for a fun and affectionate companion to share life’s adventures with, I could be the girl for you—and yes, just like my namesake, I’m always ready for a little adventure!

Favorite Things: Carrie absolutely adores her people and wants to be wherever the action is! She has a blast playing and wrestling with other dogs, especially pups who enjoy an energetic play session. Once she’s had her fill of fun, Carrie is perfectly content curling up beside her person and soaking up some one-on-one affection.

Training and Manners: Like any young pup, Carrie is still learning what it means to be a well-mannered member of the family. She has been working with a trainer on leash confidence, housetraining, household manners, and basic training and will need a family willing to be patient and consistent to follow through on what she has learned in training. Carrie is a quick study and picks things up readily, making her a wonderful candidate for a family excited to help her continue growing and learning.

Health and Care: Carrie is a healthy young dog who is spayed, microchipped, and current on all of her vaccines. Her Labradoodle coat will require regular brushing as well as professional grooming appointments to keep her looking and feeling her best. Potential adopters should be comfortable with the ongoing time and expense associated with maintaining a Labradoodle’s coat.

Other Animals: Carrie enjoys the company of other dogs and especially loves canine playmates who are ready to match her youthful energy. She would likely appreciate having a playful dog friend in her forever home. Carrie has not been introduced to cats, so her behavior around feline companions is currently unknown.

Children: Carrie is a cheerful, affectionate girl who enjoys meeting people and gets along well with everyone she encounters. Because she is still a very enthusiastic puppy, she is continuing to learn about personal space and appropriate boundaries. Her ideal home with children would be one where the kids are sturdy enough to comfortably handle her puppy exuberance and are not easily knocked off balance.

Ideal Home: Carrie will need a single-family home because she can be quite vocal when left alone, so a home where this can be managed appropriately would be best. Her family should be experienced with dogs and prepared to patiently guide her through her puppy behaviors. She needs a family who is ready to put in the time, effort, and consistency necessary to help her thrive.

Overall: Carrie is an energetic, affectionate, and clever young pup who has so much to offer her future family! She loves her humans, enjoys canine companionship, and is eager to learn and discover the world around her. She’ll need a family willing to embrace the work that comes with puppyhood while helping her gain confidence and polish her manners. With the right guidance, plenty of love, and maybe a little shopping for the perfect pair of chew-proof “Manolo Blahniks,” Carrie could be the perfect addition to your life!

If Carrie sounds like the perfect match, visit www.PoodleandPoochRescue.org to apply. If it seems like a good match, we will reach out. Her adoption donation is $625.

*** Bonded – Codey and Lexie are bonded and must be adopted together.

Meet Codey and Lexie! Hi, we’re Lexie and Codey, lifelong companions who adore each other and are ready to bring our gentle, senior sweetness to a new family. We’re calm, affectionate, easygoing, and we’re hoping to find a home with room in the heart for two.

Codey: I’m a 13year‑old Maltese blend boy who weighs 8 pounds. I’m young at heart, love staying close to my person, and bring a warm, cheerful presence wherever I go. I’m devoted, cuddly, and always ready to join in on whatever my human is doing.

Lexie: I’m a 12-year‑old Shih Tzu girl who weighs 10 pounds. I’m an independent soul who enjoys quiet moments, cozy spots, and choosing affection when it feels just right. I may be small, but I’m steady, observant, and full of soft charm.

Favorite Things 

Codey: Codey loves staying near his person and happily shadows them throughout the day. He enjoys curling up on the couch, stretching out in bed, and following familiar routines. While toys don’t interest him much, he’s delighted by breakfast and dinner and cleans his bowl with gusto. He naps often but perks up the moment his human moves, eager to join in.

Lexie: Lexie enjoys peaceful moments and likes having her own little nook to unwind in. She’s independent and chooses affection on her terms, occasionally settling beside her person when she feels social. Toys aren’t her priority, but she loves mealtime and finishes every bowl with enthusiasm. During storms or fireworks she appreciates being close, showing her sweetest, most tender side.

Lexie and Codey are both housetrained when given regular outdoor breaks and have lovely manners. They walk politely on a leash and enjoy calm car rides, making outings simple and pleasant.
