Poodle Rescue of Southern California is a small volunteer rescue organization. We specialize in helping poodles of all sizes, Toy, Miniature and Standard Poodles. When ever possible we also rescue Labradoodles, goldendoodles, and small poodle mixes.
OWNER SURRENDERS: We try to accept as many owner surrenders as possible. If you have a poodle, a goldendoodle or a labradoodle that you can no longer care for and are looking for help re-homing your dog, please consider a few things BEFORE you contact us. 1. Am I really ready? We are very busy and do not have time to counsel you on your decision. Please talk to friends, neighbors or family if you are unsure and do what is best for you and your dog. 2. Can I drive the dog to Ventura County to drop off my dog? If not, you need to call a transport company OR talk to us about options. 3. We CAN assure you if we have the responsiblity of re-homing your dog, we will find the best possible home for him or her. Madeline 805 529-7405 or Heidi 805 647-6432.
ADOPTING OUR POODLES: Step 1: Look below to see our current dogs. Step 2: Fill out and submit our online adoption application. Step 3: Call the person fostering the dog you are interested in adopting or keep checking our site until you see a dog you like and then call. DO NOT wait for us to call you!
ADOPTION FEE: Services to care for sick and injured animals is not cheap and requires a lot of time, effort and money. There is an adoption fee ranging from $50 to $500 for our poodles and mixes. As you can imagine our incoming dogs have every imaginable illness and injury and we make sure to get them healthy and in an adoptable state. In addition, all of our dogs are spay/neutered, have shots, grooming and microchip. Our funding system is called "averaging". Your adoption fee not only helps support your rescue dog, but also helps the medically needy and older dogs. One dog may only cost us $100 in Vet. services while another may cost us $2,000 or more. Old dogs are less and our puppies and young pure bred dogs will be on the higher end of the scale, with the average adoption fee being $350. Standard Poodles almost always have a $500 adoption fee due to high demand and grooming needs.
OUT OF STATE: We do adopt to out to people out of the area, but you need to be willing to drive or fly to Ventura County in Southern California to meet and adopt one of our dogs. If you fly, you will need to have an airline approved kennel and the dog will need a transportation health certificate.
