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.
(465)

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.

Take a closer look. 👀

Bet you thought this was THE engagement pic, but nope, it’s our adoptable pup Sammy, who’s ready to write his own love story. And around here, we measure love in cuddles, not carats! 🥰

If you’re ready to say YES… to adoption… visit our website at www.pprfl.org to learn more about adopting Sammy!

Happy National Dog Day! 🐾

Adoot Skye! She’s a 4-year-old, 18 pound chihuahua/terrier blend. Sky is looking for snacks, snuggles, and a family to call her very own!

General Behavior: Skye is a lover girl who really wants to cuddle, to be loved, and to show her humans some love. She can be a bit wary of men at first, but she has warmed up to her foster dad. If her foster had to describe her in one word, it would be "sweet".

Likes & Dislikes: In addition to snuggles, Skye absolutely loves food and will do anything for a treat. She'll even go onto wet grass for a treat, even though she hates being wet. She will take all her pills like a champ if you just put them in her food bowl. She hasn't shown any interest in toys so far.

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

Medical: Skye is a healthy girl! She just needs her monthly heartworm and flea/tick prevention, like any other dog.

Other Animals: Skye does well with other small, calm dogs. She even respects older dogs when they indicate they don't want to play. She hasn't been observed around cats, but her foster thinks she'd get on with them, too.

Children: This friendly gal has done well around young visitors and is very gentle. She does, however, have a tendency to jump, so she would do best in a home with older children (ages 8 and up).

Home: Easy-going Skye would do well in a condo, apartment, or single family home: wherever there is a loving forever family who can give her the love, attention, and care she needs.

Grooming: As a short-haired dog, Skye shouldn’t require too much elaborate grooming, apart from the occasional bath.

Overall: Skye will make a wonderful companion for any family who can give all the snacks, snuggles, and love she deserves.

Do you have a heart big enough for Skye? Then visit our website at 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, and spayed.

📍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.

🏡 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.

⚠️ WARNING: Adopting a dog from Poodle and Pooch Rescue may cause sudden side effects.

Miss Chanel’s new family reported immediate onset of symptoms:

💗 Intense spouse–dog infatuation (“She stole my husband!”)

💗 Uncontrollable urge to provide dog with royal treatment (“He carries her around all the time and says, ‘Princesses get carried.’”)

💗 A permanently full heart

There is no known cure. Treatment is not recommended. In fact, we encourage this.

See our current adoptable dogs at www.pprfl.org… and adopt at your own risk!

We’re looking for volunteer photographers to help our foster dogs shine!

You don’t need to be a pro or have fancy equipment - if you can capture clear, personality-packed pics on your device of choice and are willing to help out a fellow volunteer who may not be as photo-savvy, we’d love to add you to our list of helpers.

Our dogs are located in foster homes all across Central Florida, and our goal is to build a network of volunteer photographers we can reach out to on an as-needed basis.

How it works:
📸 Fill out this form to add yourself to our list of volunteer photographers, and we’ll contact you when we need help in your area - no ongoing commitment required: https://forms.gle/LXGBePZttbnEj7eJ6
📸 You’d meet with foster families in your area on an as-needed basis (either in their home or a public place, like a park or pet store) to take photos of adoptable dogs.
📸 Your photos will be used for adoption bios and social media, helping dogs find forever homes faster!

Having quality photos is a crucial part of our rescue efforts. A great picture can make all the difference in helping a dog get noticed and adopted. Your support means the world to us... and our pups!

Ella was ADOPTED!! 🏡

Adopt Ella! She’s a 1-year-old, 13 pound terrier blend. Her name may be Ella rather than Cinderella, but she believes that some day her dreams will come true too: she'll find her forever family and live happily ever after.

General Behavior: Ella is the best of everything – fun, playful, and a snuggler. She is a sweet girl who will take food from your hand ever so gently! After a day full of playing and adventures, she loves nothing more than to snuggle up with her foster dad on the couch.

Likes & Dislikes: Ella loves to play with toys, and chase a ball. She is also a stick collector: on walks, she is very curious about sticks or twigs, and will do her best to pick one up and carry it for the rest of her walk.

Training: Ella is a little lady! She is house-trained if let out frequently, walks well on a leash, and generally has good basic manners. She sleeps well through the night. Ella is fine in a car, although she’s curious and active so she should be restrained for her own safety. She does have a loud bark and is working on communicating more effectively with it. She will instantly quiet and sit if treats/food is involved! She is also working on greeting people without jumping. She is food- and toy-motivated, and seems quite trainable.

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

Other Animals: This energetic, engaging gal would likely enjoy the company of another playful dog. She hasn't been observed around cats yet, but her foster thinks this gentle gal would get on just fine with felines.

Children: Ella has yet to be observed around children.

Home: Between her loud bark and her playful, energetic nature, Ella would do best in a single-family home.

Grooming: As a short-haired dog, Ella should not need too much elaborate grooming.

Overall: Ella will surely be a fun and affectionate addition to a lucky family.

Do you find Ella to be enchanting? Then visit our website at 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, and spayed.

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

A dose of gratitude coming your way! 💊❤

We recently asked for help with the cost of our dogs’ medications, and thanks to your donations, the pups we featured in the post are covered for several months. Our volunteer “Grub & Drugs” team, which oversees the online orders for our dogs’ meds and food, was thrilled to see the Chewy gift cards roll in shortly after our post will live. Your donations are covering everything from heart meds to allergy relief, ensuring our dogs continue to remain comfortable and stable in their foster homes.

Their refills may be ongoing, but so is your kindness… and we are so incredibly grateful!

Adopt Roscoe! He’s a 5-year-old, 12-pound Maltese mix. Roscoe’s ready to volunteer as your co-pilot, errand sidekick, chief snuggle officer, and loyal best friend.

General Behavior: Roscoe is a little shy at first, but once he knows he's safe and loved, his sweet and gentle personality shines through. Roscoe absolutely loves being with his people — he’s a total cuddle bug who wants to be by your side all day long. Need to run some pet-friendly errands? Roscoe’s your copilot — he’s always ready to go! He sleeps peacefully through the night, especially when he gets to curl up in a cozy human bed.

Likes & Dislikes: This lovable cuddlebug’s happy place? Curled up beside you on the couch for a cozy Netflix marathon. When it’s playtime, he enjoys a short round of fetch with his tiny stuffed toy—just enough to get those adorable zoomies going, which are pure entertainment to watch.

Training: Roscoe is a quick learner with great manners. He is housetrained if let out frequently, walks well on a leash, loves car rides, and generally has good basic manners.

Medical: This sweet guy just needs his monthly flea and heartworm preventatives, like any dog, plus a cytopoint injection every 6-10 weeks.

Other Animals: This shy sweetheart can be a bit timid around dogs his size, but with a little time and patience, he warms up nicely. He hasn't been observed around cats yet, but his foster thinks he'd be OK with them, too.

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

Home: Roscoe would do well in an apartment, condo, or single-family home. He does occasionally make some noise: when he gets really excited, he lets out the cutest little howl! He’s a quiet pup and rarely ever barks — only when he's feeling especially playful or thrilled. When left alone he will cry, but quickly settles down.

Grooming: Roscoe has incredibly soft, fluffy fur and will need to be brushed weekly and groomed on a regular basis.

Overall: Roscoe is truly one of the sweetest dogs you’ll ever meet and would make a wonderful addition to any loving home.

Roscoe 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.

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

Cody was ADOPTED!!! 🏡

Update! As you can see, Cody is extremely popular ❤️

Please read this post in its entirety and visit our website for his full bio, adoption donation amount, and the application to adopt. Please be patient with our application team as they process the incoming apps and forward to the foster for review. We are all volunteers who do this in addition to our full time jobs and families.

Thank you 🐾

Adopt Cody! He’s a 2.5-year-old, 23 pound Havanese/poodle blend. He loves his people, especially the adults, as he tends to take his cues from them and match the energy of the house. If everyone is chilling, he’s chilling. If there’s activity, he’s all in!

General Behavior: Cody is an energetic guy who lives life with gusto. He loves attention, especially from adults. He's smart and snuggly, curious and oh-so-cute. Ever vigilant, you can count on him to let you know when the mailman or landscapers arrive. In fact, he’ll even let you know if there’s action on the tv!

Likes & Dislikes: Cody is a big fan of toys – the more the better! He also enjoys car rides and walks. Most of all, he enjoys hanging out and snuggling with his humans. This boy does not like being crated but with his good house manners, he doesn’t need to be.

Training: Cody is house-trained and walks well on a leash. He sleeps soundly in the people bed at night.

Medical: Cody is a healthy guy and just needs his monthly flea and heartworm preventatives.

Other Animals: Cody has been getting along great with his foster fur brother, who is a large, laid-back dog. He hasn’t been tested with cats yet but given his excitability we don’t think he would be a good fit.

Children: This fun-loving boy enjoys kids but jumps up when he gets excited, so we recommend a home with no children or with older children (8 years+).

Home: Cody would do best in a single-family residence because he does bark at visitors and people passing by. He can be left alone for several hours in the home securely with no issues.

Grooming: This handsome boy’s soft, beautiful fur will require regular grooming, and he knows it. He's a perfect gentleman for his grooms.

Overall: If you are looking for an enthusiastic extrovert who will treasure every minute with you, Cody may be the pup for you!

Are you the one for Cody? Then visit our website at 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 throughout 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.

🚨 Pierogi Pupdate 🚨

B.A.R. - Music to our ears when his surgeon called and said “Pierogi had his surgery….he’s bright, alert and responsive!”

During his surgery prep, it appeared as though one of the punctures may have penetrated his abdominal wall. An abdomen perforation is always concerning, but given the fact that we don’t know how long he has been injured, there could be a significant infection.

We prepared ourselves for this complication and they went into surgery.

Our post-surgery update was a sigh of relief as not only had the surgery gone well and they were able to reroute his urethra, but there was no puncture in the abdominal wall!

He is dosed out on pain meds, resting, and getting 24/7 care and cuddles. They said he had to have been in excruciating pain and, left untreated, it would have absolutely been a fatal injury.

The biggest risk right now is infection, so we’re being proactive and adding antibiotics into his med cocktail. He is going to remain in the hospital with round-the-clock care to manage his pain levels and ensure his wounds stay clean and drained.

Thank you to everyone who donated, shared, commented, and sent love. Without you all, we wouldn’t be able to help pups like Pierogi. ❤️🐾

Archie was ADOPTED!!! 🏡

Adopt Archie! He’s a 2-year-old, 60 lb. Irish Setter/Golden Retriever blend.

General Behavior: Archie is a sweet, and goofy guy. He has a lot of energy but at the end of the day loves to cuddle up on the couch with his family. He is everyone's friend: if you have a gathering, he'll charm all your guests, and he is very patient when waiting for his turn for food and treats.

Likes & Dislikes: This playful pooch loves the tennis ball the most and could play fetch all day. He also enjoys going outside and hunting for lizards and has amazing focus.

Training: Archie is one smart cookie! He is very intelligent and knows, sit, paw, and almost knows down, and stay. He also has good basic manners. He is housetrained if let out regularly, he is a good passenger in the car, and he sleeps in the people bed at night. He could just use a little more practice leash-walking.

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

Other Animals: Archie plays well with all other dogs he's met, from daschunds to pit bulls. He has not been observed around cats yet, but his current foster thinks he'd be OK with them.

Children: This friendly guy has been good with all the children he has met, of all ages.

Home: Archie would do well in almost any sort of home, but he does need to be observed around pools. He goes in the shallow end of the pool but needs to work on his swimming skills in deeper water.

Grooming: Archie will need to be brushed regularly but he should not need too much elaborate grooming.

Overall: Archie is a wonderful dog who is looking for an active, loving family who will give him the great life he deserves.

Adopt Archie, and you'll always have the luck of the Irish (Setters). 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 and heartworm negative.
