The
Western Reserve Poodle Club Rescue and Rescue Referral is a non-profit
organization dedicated to the rescue and placement of homeless poodles in
northeast Ohio.
Adoptions of rescued poodles from
WRPC:
We
are a totally volunteer organization that works with veterinarians,
shelters, families and other rescue organizations to care for and re-home
poodles. Before placement, of rescued poodles, all dogs are spayed or neutered, heartworm
tested, vaccinated and groomed. The volunteers are members of The Western
Reserve Poodle Club.
All
medical information is fully disclosed to new owners. When possible, the
dogs are placed in foster homes that provide love and patience to help the
animals adjust before being adopted. While being fostered, it's
possible to do an accurate temperament evaluation.
There
is a fee associated with each adoption (this can vary and usually is in the
range of $125-$350); these fees are used to defray the costs of veterinary
charges, housing, etc.
FYI -
We are located in the northeast Ohio area.
We do not ship poodles
If you are outside this area, please go to the
website:
www.poodleclubofamerica.org to find a referral in your area.
Referrals from WRPC:.
Fortunately, we do not have an overabundance of poodles in our care at most
times.
Therefore, we may be able to assist the prospective adoptee with a Referral
method: these are dogs that are currently in a safe environment, but need a
new home due to various circumstances; the owner will house the dog until
someone is referred to them.
These
dogs, however, have not been evaluated by The Western Reserve Poodle Club.
The health history/status of each dog has been verified with the dog's
veterinarian, but we can make no guarantee as to the accuracy of the information provided
by the referring party. These referrals are provided as a courtesy, in an
effort to find the dog a loving and more permanent home. The referral dogs
are not housed by WRPC members or WRPC foster homes. They are dogs that the
current owner is attempting to find a new home for whatever reason.

poodle awaiting a permanent home (these poodles that are being re-homed or
have been rescued from a shelter), please fill out a
