Meet Adoptable Samson!
Samson is an adult male Golden Retriever/Standard Poodle mix. He came to CPR in early March 2025 as a breeder release.

Samson doesn't have a preference for whether his adopter is a single person, couple, or family—he’s simply looking for someone who will love him, spend time playing with him, and include him in as many adventures as possible. Whether it's a walk in the neighborhood, a hike in the woods, or a trip to the mountains or beach, Samson is ready to be your adventure buddy. And after all the fun, he’d love to stop for a pup cup as a special treat!
This happy boy walks well on a leash but would benefit from some refresher training with his new family. He’ll also need to learn basic commands. Samson is crate-trained and doesn’t bark excessively. He enjoys relaxing in his crate and would love to have a space in his new home to call his own. With regular potty breaks, he’s great about keeping your home clean—just be sure to take him out before bedtime!

Samson gets along well with calmer dogs and would be thrilled to have a well-matched dog buddy in his forever home. He’s not fond of hyperactive dogs, so he’s best suited for a home with a more relaxed canine companion. A fenced-in backyard would be perfect for him to play and bond with his new doggy friend.

If you're looking for a big guy with an even bigger heart who will bring joy and excitement to your life, Samson might be the perfect match for you.

Meet Adoptable Aiden!
Aiden is a young adult male Standard Poodle. He came to CPR in mid-February as part of a cruelty case. Aiden landed in a South Carolina shelter and CPR pulled him from there.

Meet Aiden, a big, bouncy boy with endless energy! This happy-go-lucky guy is searching for his forever home with an active family. Aiden gets along with everyone and loves to play, but he can be a bit jumpy, so he’s not recommended for families with young children (under 10 years old) or seniors.
Aiden doesn't have a preference when it comes to whether his adopter is a single person, a couple, or a family, as long as they’re as active as he is! He wants a family that will engage with him, take him on regular walks, and include him in all their adventures, whether it's hiking in the woods, climbing mountains, or hitting the beach. Aiden loves to be with his humans as much as possible!
If you’re an active person or family who loves long walks, hikes, or beach trips, Aiden would be the perfect companion for you. Adopt Aiden today, and you’ll both embark on the adventure of a lifetime!

E-collar dog training isn't a good training option. Aversive training measures cause stress and pain rather than building a bond with your dog.
