Poodle and Pooch Rescue of Florida

A Rescue Based in Central Florida Saving Dogs in Need Poodle and Pooch Rescue is a 501(c)3 non profit organization that saves dogs that truly need help.
(466)

We rescue the "leftovers" from animal control, the dogs nobody wants because they're older or suffer from neglect, abuse or have a medical need. Their "last" day becomes the first day of their new life. We provide the veterinary care they need, a foster family they love and when they're ready, we adopt them to a family who cherishes them. We are all volunteers so your tax-deductible donation goes

directly to help the dogs. We have saved over 5,200 dogs since 2008. Please help us save even more with a donation marked "Special Needs". Our greatest need is for donations for our Special Needs dogs who are listed on the "Save a Dog" page on our website at www.PPRFL.org.

Bugsy made a wish on his third birthday and although he didn’t tell us what it was (birthday wishes are best kept secret, after all) - we’re pretty sure he wished for a family to call his own. 🎂 🏠

This smart, silly, curly boy has been working hard with our friends at Beyond The Leash brushing up on his training and showing off his big personality. He’s ready to graduate into his forever home… preferably with an active, dog-savvy human who loves adventures and snuggles.

Bugsy would like to be your one and only pet, and would do best with adults or teens who can match his enthusiasm and strength.

Help make Bugsy’s birthday wish come true! Read his full bio and apply to adopt at www.pprfl.org

The listing said “Adopt Sully” but what it should have said was “Adopt a Doppelgänger!” 👯

Kelsey and Kiley were looking for a companion for their senior pup, Dahlia - and when they saw Sully’s face on our website, they knew he would be the perfect match. He looked just like Dahlia with his soulful eyes and frosty muzzle.

Now, Sully gets to live out his golden years hanging out with his new BFF (and twin) Dahlia, all while being spoiled rotten by his doting parents!

Do you have a pair of doppelgänger dogs? Share some pics with us in the comments!

Sammy has a lot to be thankful for these days… including his brand new Muffin’s Halo, donated by the amazing team at Second Chances For Blind Dogs Foundation, which will help prevent him from bumping his head as he navigates the world as a blind dog.

This sweet senior Peke–Shih Tzu mix came to us after being found in a home with his deceased owner. He was underweight, neglected, and struggling with severe vision loss and painful eye disease. Ultimately, both of Sammy’s eyes were removed, which has made him so much more comfortable.

A huge shoutout to his wonderful foster mom, Emily, who pursued and applied for the halo so Sammy could have this incredible gift. Now, he’s learning to explore the world safely and confidently… and he looks absolutely precious doing it!

We’re so grateful to the Second Chances for Blind Dogs Fondation for providing this life-changing gift of Muffin's Halo For Blind Dogs. Thank you for helping our sweet Sammy! 😇 💛

Hi, I'm Denver! I'm a 1-year-old Yorkshire Terrier (Yorkie) blend. Even though I only weigh 11 lbs, my love is bigger than the Rockies, and there ain't no mountain high enough to stop me from finding my forever family.

General Behavior: Denver is a cute little guy that picks a person and follows them everywhere! He knows when you want him to play and when you want him to relax. He will even take his naps lying next to you. This little guy is the best love bug ever.

Likes & Dislikes: Denver loves snuggling and napping with his people! He is also learning to play with toys. His foster sister is teaching him how much fun you can have with tennis balls and stuffed toys.

Training: Denver is a good boy! He is housetrained if let out frequently and he is learning quickly that our walks are for him to go potty also. Denver is learning his basic commands such as come, sit and down. If you offer him a treat he likes, he is even better at obeying the command! Denver is still learning how to walk properly on a leash; and that he should not try to chase and bark at every dog, person and golf cart that passes by, but he is making good progress.

Medical: Denver is a healthy pup who just needs his routine monthly heartworm and flea prevention.

Other Animals: This friendly fellow is good with other calm, small dogs. He has not been observed around cats yet.

Children: Due to his small size Denver needs a home with kind, understanding, older children only (ages 8+).

Home: Denver does best when left in a secure area with his bed and a treat, when he is going to be left alone. Otherwise, his anxiety causes him to bark, whine and get into things he should not. He would do best in a home that his owners are home a majority of the time. I do not recommend an apartment for him due to his barking when he is left alone.

Grooming: His fur is still growing in at the moment, but Denver is a Yorkie blend who will require grooming every 6 - 8 weeks.

Overall: Denver will make a loving companion for anyone who can raise him, train him, and care for him forever.

Is your love for Denver a mile high? Then visit our website www.PoodleandPoochRescue.Org where you will find the application to adopt. You’ll be put in contact with the foster family for more information if it’s a potential match. He is up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped, and neutered.

📍Located in the greater Orlando area. We adopt anywhere within the state of Florida. You must be able to come to us.

➡️ Note: If this dog is listed on our website, www.pprfl.org, they are still available and we’re accepting applications. If they are not listed, they are either pending adoption, have a meet scheduled, or have received multiple qualified apps. We are still accepting backup applications.

Wanted: foster homes and funds!

Meet Fifi and Gizzi, each 15-year-old and weighing just 6 lbs each. Their owner was moving and didn’t want to take the dogs, so all the pups were loaded into a U-Haul and surrendered to the local county shelter.

These tiny seniors were handed over in heartbreaking condition - covered in fleas, missing patches of fur, and suffering from severe dental disease. One of the girls is also blind.

Despite everything, they are gentle souls who deserve safety, comfort, and love in their golden years.

Right now, we need:

🏠 Orlando-area foster homes: Fostering is free - we provide food, supplies, vet care, and medications. You provide the love! The girls do not need to be fostered together.

💰 Donations to help cover their urgent medical needs, including dental care, flea treatment, and more. If you’d like to contribute, you can do so:

- Directly through this post
- Via PayPal at Give2PPR.com
- Via Venmo -poochrescue (last four digits of our phone number: 3089)
- Via CashApp at $PPRFLORIDA

Can you help? Visit www.pprfl.org to apply to foster, or make a donation to support Fifi and Gizzi’s care. Let’s give them the fresh start they deserve.

*Update!! Foster FOUND!!!

🍊Orlando-area foster needed!

Cody is leaning into the “child-free by choice” lifestyle and looking for a calm, kid-free home where he can hang out until he’s adopted.

Before coming into our care, Cody lived in a quiet, loving home, but unfortunately his owner experienced some health challenges and asked for our help when she could no longer care for him. Cody was then adopted by a family with small children, which proved to be too overwhelming for him. Now, Cody’s back in our care and we’re hoping to get him out of boarding and into a loving foster home ASAP.

This 2.5-year-old, 23 lb. Havanese/Poodle blend boy is housebroken and will let you know when he needs to go outside. He knows basic commands and doesn’t need to be crated. He gets along with other dogs. Cody is fully vetted, neutered, healthy, friendly, happy, affectionate and soft like a big stuffed teddy bear. He’s truly an awesome dog and just needs to land in a kid-free home where he’s set up for success.

As a reminder, fostering is FREE - we provide food, supplies, medications, and vet care. You provide the love!

Meet Tammy! Hi there, I’m Tammy — a 2-year-old, 14-lb Yorkshire Terrier blend with springs in my step and joy in my heart! Some say I might have a bit of kangaroo in me because I love to leap, wiggle, and bounce right into your arms. I’m a sweet, silly, affectionate girl who’s ready to fill your home with laughter, love, and endless snuggles.

Personality & Behavior - I’m happiest when I’m with my people. Expect zoomies in the yard, playful hops around the house, and plenty of cuddles on the couch. I’m also a sensitive soul who appreciates peace and calm when the world gets noisy. I can be a little nervous around men at first, but I warm up quickly once I know I’m safe and loved.

My Favorite Things - I love running and dancing around the backyard, being part of whatever you’re doing, and ending the day curled up next to you. Leash walks are one of my favorite adventures — I go full steam ahead in a funny little zig-zag pattern that’s guaranteed to make you smile. Playtime and attention make my tail wag, but snuggling is my specialty.

Training & Manners - I’m a quick learner — I already know “sit” and I’m doing great with my housetraining! I’m also crate trained and sleep peacefully through the night without fussing. When I first started, I just needed a calm “no, quiet” once or twice to understand bedtime rules. After a busy day, I’ll snooze soundly in my cozy dog bed. I can be a bit wiggly in the car, so a dog seat belt helps keep me safe, and I’m still polishing up my basic manners. With a little patience, I’ll be the perfect little lady.

Health & Care - I’m spayed, microchipped, fully vaccinated, heartworm negative, and recently had my teeth cleaned. I just need regular monthly preventatives and occasional grooming to keep my coat shiny and healthy.

Other Pets - I do well with small to medium-sized dogs and would love a canine companion — I don’t like being alone for long. I’m a bit too interested in cats, so a cat-free home is best.

Children - I’d do best with dog-savvy kids ages 10 and up who understand that I can be timid sometimes and need gentle handling.

Ideal Home - A single-family home with a tall, secure fenced yard would be perfect for me. I love to run, jump, and play safely outside, but because I can spook easily, I need a secure environment to keep me safe. I’d also do well in a condo or apartment, as long as I’m taken out regularly for walks and potty breaks. I’m not a yapper — my bark is soft and more of a little howl, and I save my voice for when someone is at the door or coming inside.

If you’re looking for a playful, snuggly sidekick who will brighten your days with hops, wiggles, and unconditional love — I might just be your girl! Ready to meet me? Visit www.pprfl.org to fill out an adoption application. If we’re a good match, my foster family will be in touch.

📍Located in the greater Orlando area. We adopt anywhere within the state of Florida. You must be able to come to us.

Introducing the First Royal International Tree Offspring (FRITO) Finder 300!

The latest model can overcome any challenge you throw at it. Big stick, little sticks, not even a stick, but an old 2x2? No problem!

Frito can even find sticks while wearing a cone post-neuter!

This stick seeking model is not only efficient outdoors, but is also great at finding loose dog toys inside as well. He does require intermittent recharging throughout the day, and a full recharge overnight, but then he’s fresh and ready to work.

If you have too many sticks and not enough time, Frito may be the exact solution you are looking for.

Check out Frito’s full bio and the application to adopt at www.pprfl.org

Psssst! If you’re perusing our socials because you’re in the market to adopt a dog, here’s a pro-tip! 👀

Did you know adoptable dogs are posted on our website FIRST, before they’re shared on social media?

In fact, sometimes a dog will be listed on our website for several days before we have a chance to fit them into our social media schedule.

We often hear from followers who are disappointed a dog was adopted so quickly after we post on social media… even when the dog was sitting on our website for days prior with zero applications before we posted.

So here’s our best advice: visit our website at www.pprfl.org frequently, as dogs are often being added and removed. You may discover your dream dog before they ever make it to social media! 🤫
