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.

Adopt Lilly! Lilly is a 7-year-old Poodle blend who weighs just 13 lbs. As her name suggests, she’s a beauty who just needs your love and attention to help her blossom!

General Behavior: Lilly is a clever, cuddly, curious dog. She is very gentle, and she loves giving kisses.

Likes & Dislikes: Lilly isn't too impressed with toys: her very favorite thing is just snuggling with her people!

Training: Lily is a little lady! She is housetrained if let out frequently, and she will even let you know when she needs to go out. She is a well-behaved passenger on car rides, she walks well on a leash, and she generally has good basic manners.

Medical: Lily is a healthy girl! She just needs her monthly flea and heartworm preventatives, like any dog.

Other Animals: Lily is good with other dogs of all sizes. She just ignores them. She's even good with cats!

Children: This gentle girl is good with kids of all ages.

Home: Little Lilly is equally at home downtown and down on the farm. She'd do well in an apartment, condo, or single-family home.

Grooming: Since she is a Poodle blend, Lilly has a beautiful coat that will need regular brushing plus professional grooming about every 6-8 weeks.

Overall: If you are looking for a faithful, affectionate companion, Lilly is the dog for you!

Roses are red, violets are blue: could sweet little Lilly be the best dog for you? Then please 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. She is up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped, and spayed.

➡️➡️ 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.

The post will be updated when the adoption is official. All dogs are in foster homes in and around Orlando. An approved application is required in order for us to connect you to the foster family.

Adopt Isabelle! Isabelle is a 3-year-old Cocker Spaniel/Poodle/Dachshund blend girl who weighs 20 lbs. She’s a curious and enthusiastic pup who is looking to find a forever home filled with love . . . and LOTS of toys.

General Behavior: Isabelle’s foster family describes her as sweet, active and smart. She is a snuggly girl who is also quite athletic. She does have anxiety when her people leave the house, and she becomes quite vocal (but she calms down fairly quickly).

Likes & Dislikes: Isabelle LOVES many things, but playing with squeaky toys is at the top of her list. In fact, the louder the squeak, the better. She loves to play ball and will happily play for hours (if allowed) and put her athleticism on full display.

Training: Isabelle has done great with house training and will even let her foster know when she has to go outside. She walks well on a leash, has good basic manners and loves riding in the car. She is also food-motivated, which lends itself nicely to additional training.

Medical: Isabelle is a healthy girl who just needs monthly heartworm and flea/tick prevention, like any other dog.

Other Animals: Isabelle has experience with dogs of all sizes and generally ignores them. She has not been tested with cats, but her foster feels it would probably not be a good fit.

Children: Isabelle would be best suited in a home with children 8 and older.

Home: Isabelle is a vocal girl who will bark when she wants out, when she wants to eat, and when she wants to play. Because of this, as well as her anxiety when left alone, a single-family home will be necessary. Isabelle has free rein of her foster home and gladly sleeps in the “people bed” at night. She'd prefer a home where her humans are around more often than not.

Grooming: Isabelle requires regular at-home grooming with baths and brushing to prevent matting and professional grooming every couple of months to keep her beautiful coat in tip top shape.

Overall: If you are looking for an affectionate, playful girl who is sure to bring love and laughter to your home, Isabelle could be the one for you.

Are you the one for Isabelle? Then visit our website www.PoodleandPoochRescue.org where you will find the application to adopt. You will be put in contact with the foster family for more information if it is a potential match. She is up to date on vaccines, microchipped, heartworm negative, spayed and has pearly whites due to her recent dental cleaning.

➡️➡️ 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.

We have exciting news to share: Cash has relocated to a FOSTER HOME! 🎉🎉🎉

For almost a year, you’ve seen us beg for someone to foster Cash. The amazing team at The Parc Pet Suites, Sports & Spa in Longwood offered to take Cash in until we found him a foster home. What was supposed to be just a short-term arrangement turned out to be an unexpected long-term arrangement as we were unable to find a place for Cash to go.

We’re so incredibly grateful The Parc Pet Suites stepped up to help Cash for all these months and truly don’t know what we would have done without their support. As you can see from the smile on Cash’s face, he’s grown close to the staff who cared for him during all this time. Cash stopped by The Parc Pet Suites one more time for a proper goodbye after the meet-and-greet with his new foster family.

Now, it’s time for Cash to close this chapter and leave the boarding environment behind. We can’t wait to share more about how Cash is enjoying the luxuries of his new foster home as he continues to search for his forever family. Stay tuned!

FOSTER FOUND!

Earlier this week, we took Georgia and her puppy, Grady. They were found abandoned in a parking lot and Grady was pulled from a sewage drain.

We’d like to get this sweet pair out of boarding and into a foster home (together) ASAP.

Georgia is a Tibetan Terrier, just 1 yr old and 19 lbs and sweet as pie. She is pure love.

Grady is A Tibetan Terrier (likely mixed) just 6 weeks old and 4 lbs and he’s the softest, sweetest, most snuggly and kissy little guy ever.

If you can help, please visit our website at https://poodleandpoochrescue.org/apply-to-foster/ and submit a foster application.

Thank you! 🐾

Gus is a curious pup, but he approaches the world with caution, so his foster mom got him this doggie stroller to help him explore the world from his own little safe space.

While 3-year-old Gus will likely always be a timid dog, he’s made great strides in his foster home and is ready to find his forever family - someone who allows him to come to them on his own terms. Underneath it all, he is the sweetest boy!

Do you have the calm, dog-savvy home Gus is looking for? Visit our website at www.pprfl.org to read his full adoption listing and submit an application.

Today is the first day of summer, a season known for fun in the sun.

But let’s be honest: most of us Floridians would prefer to sprawl out in the A/C at this time of year, and Evie is no exception. Especially if staying inside means she’ll get more snuggles and cuddles with her person.

To learn more about adopting this beautiful 4-year-old gal, visit our website at www.pprfl.org!

Adopt Leo! Leo is a 7 year old Yorkie who may be named after a lion, but he’s only 6 lbs.

General Behavior: This feisty little lover just wants to tag along with you and to be your buddy. He's small enough to take with you on your adventures, and in return he will protect you from evil forces like other dogs or loud noises. He wants to be on your lap but he will happily follow you when you need to get up. He will make a great, dedicated companion.


Likes & Dislikes: Leo loves snuggles with his person. He also likes to roam around in the back yard.

Training: This little gentleman is making good progress with housetraining. He walks well on a leash, loves car rides, sleeps in the people bed at night, and generally has good basic manners.

Medical: Leo is a healthy boy! He just needs his monthly flea and heartworm preventatives, like any dog.

Other Animals: Lovely Leo is good with other small dogs. He has yet to be observed around cats, but his foster thinks he'd get along with a feline friend.

Children: Leo would do best in a home with understanding, kind children (ages 8+).

Home: This little firecracker requires a single family residence. As a Silkie Yorkie, he’s always on alert and will bark at sudden noises. He would also enjoy a supervised fenced area.

Grooming: To keep Leo looking his best, he will need professional grooming every 6 weeks. He’ll also benefit from frequent brushing to keep his coat shiny and tangle free.

Overall: Leo will make a wonderful companion for someone who will take him on adventures, give him lots of belly rubs, and love him forever.

Leo is ready to meet his forever family: could that be you? If so, 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, microchipped, and neutered

🚨 We need your help! 🚨

Yesterday, we took in two new pups in dire need of help. Initially, we were contacted to help with Georgia, a dog that had been found living near a local school.

She was terribly matted, filthy and clearly neglected. She appeared to have had a recent litter, so staff looked around and found one puppy who was in a sewage drain. The drain (pictured) was about a foot full of dirty water.

They continued their search to see if they could find any more puppies, but it looks like little Grady was the only one. A kind person went and picked them up and she also searched the area (she's a trapper in Central FL and has reunited many lost pets with their owners). She didn't have luck locating any other pups either.

Georgia and her pup, Grady, are now safe and with our vetting partner, Integrated Animal Hospital, where they will get a full work up.

Adopt Poppy! She weighs just 11 lbs and is 8 years old. Poppy is a peppy, perky poodle blend who is just looking for a comfy dog bed and a family who will love her forever.

General Behavior: This calm, laid-back girl is a very easy dog. She does allow you to cuddle with her and will sleep near you, but she is not overly affectionate or clingy. Poppy will bark for a little when you leave the house, but she will stop and go back to sleep. When you return, she will greet you with excitement and happy tail wags and wiggles.

Likes & Dislikes: Poppy absolutely loves relaxing in her dog beds around the house.

Training: Poppy is a good girl! She is working on her leash skills and is making good progress with her housetraining. She's a good passenger in the car and generally has good basic manners.

Medical: Poppy is on a urinary rx diet, this costs the same as any quality dog food. Other than that, she just needs her monthly flea and heartworm preventatives, like any dog.

Other Animals: Poppy is good with other calm, small, laid-back dogs. She's even good with cats!

Children: Poppy is extremely calm and would be fine with kids as long as they understand that she might not be as affectionate and playful as some other dogs.

Home: Poppy does not have a lot of experience with steps. She goes up the steps to the couch but at the moment her foster has to carry her upstairs, so a home without stairs might be best. Otherwise, she'd do well in an apartment, condo, or single-family home.

Grooming: Poppy has alopecia (aka some hair loss or thinning in some spots), she still requires regular baths and nails trims and should have a professional spa day every 2-3 months as well.

Overall: Poppy will make a wonderful companion for any family who can love her as much as she will love them.

Do you think Poppy would blossom with you? Then please 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. She is up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped, and spayed.

➡️➡️ 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.

17/06/2025

Hurricane season started earlier this month in Central Florida and “just in case” preparation is underway. Even our pups are getting in on the action - foster dog Poppy, along with PPR alumni Duke and Sunny, are storm-ready!

If you have pets, your supply list should include:

🌧️ Medications and medical records (stored in a waterproof container) and a first aid kit.

🌧️ Sturdy leashes, harnesses, and/or carriers to transport pets safely.

🌧️ Current photos of you with your pet, in case you’re separated and need to validate ownership.

🌧️ Food, water, bowls, cat litter/pan, and can opener.

🌧️ Information on feeding schedules, medical conditions, behavior problems, and the name and number of your veterinarian in case you have to board your pets.

🌧️ Pet beds and toys, if easily transportable.

As always, make sure your pets are wearing collars and tags with up-to-date contact information at all times, and ensure their microchip information is current as well.

For additional recommendations about how to prepare, visit FloridaDisaster.org.

Here’s hoping for a safe and uneventful storm season! 🤞

Adopt Charlie! He is a Labrador Retriever blend who weighs 70 lbs and is just 4 years old. Adventurous, athletic, and loyal, he’s looking for the Linus to my Charlie Brown: someone to be my best friend forever. (And in the meantime, he’s told that he’s a great guest if you'd like to foster me for awhile!)

General Behavior: As long as his people are by his side, charming Charlie is a happy boy! He loves to snuggle and give kisses. It's easy to tell when he's content: he loves to clink his teeth together when he’s happy and smile.

Likes & Dislikes: In addition to snuggling with his people, this active, athletic guy loves to run in the yard and get his energy out.

Training: Charlie has the makings of a very good boy! He is not used to walking on the leash yet and needs more practice. Other than that, he is housetrained if let out regularly, he is a well-behaved passenger during car rides, he sleeps in a dog bed at night, and generally has good basic manners.

Medical: Charlie is a healthy boy! He just needs his monthly flea and heartworm preventatives, like any dog.

Other Animals: Charlie is good with other calm dogs. He has shown some hesitance around other dogs, but no aggression. He’s has yet to be observed around cats, but his foster does not think he'd get along with any feline friends.

Children: Charlie would do best in a home with sturdy, understanding, kind teenagers.

Home: Charlie would do well in a single-family home where he can run and where someone is around more often than not. He likes to be with his humans more then being by himself because he gets sad when you go away.

Grooming: Charlie does not require much elaborate grooming, apart from brushing. (He does shed, so he will need to be brushed!)

Overall: Charlie will make a wonderful companion for someone who will take him on adventures, give him lots of belly rubs, and love him forever.

Charlie is ready to meet his forever family: could that be you? Or could you even just foster this friendly fellow for a few weeks? If so, visit our website www.PoodleandPoochRescue.org where you will find the application to adopt or foster. 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, microchipped, and neutered.

➡️➡️ 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.
