NorCal Poodle Rescue

💔🐾 Randall is not doing okay… and he needs us.
This sweet boy just lost everything. His owner is terminally ill and had to surrender him. Before that, he’s believed to have lived life as a breeding dog—confined, overlooked, and without the love he deserved.
Now Randall is at the shelter, and he’s heartbroken.
He circles. He cries. He doesn’t understand why he’s alone again.
But when someone stops to hold him?
He melts. 💞
When the kennel manager gives him hugs and kisses, he’s so happy…
…and when she walks away to help other dogs, he cries for her to come back. 😢
✨ The real Randall is in there:
🐶 Sweet and gentle
🐶 Good with other dogs
🐶 Lights up when someone plays with him
He just needs someone to stay.
🏡 Randall needs a calm, loving home to help him feel safe again.
He’s not broken—he’s grieving. And he is so ready to love someone with his whole heart.
💔 Please don’t let him shut down in a kennel.
❤️ Be the person who gives Randall his second chance.

Poppy is out of our area, but she sounds like such a cutie we are posting her to widen her adoption search.

Poppy – Cream colored poodle, 1 year, 33 lbs

Poppy’s Story – A Little Dog Who Refused to Give Up

Poppy’s past is unknown, but we know it wasn’t kind. She was found alone in the rain in rural Fresno County — injured, underweight, and trying to survive.

She had suffered a traumatic loss of part of her back leg and was dangerously anemic, too weak at first for the surgery she needed. But with the help of Labrador Retriever Rescue of Fresno, Poppy was given a chance.

For two weeks, she healed in foster care, and through every moment of pain and uncertainty… she never stopped wagging her tail.

On March 2nd, she finally had her life-saving surgery. And true to who she is, Poppy kept fighting — and kept choosing joy.

Today, she’s healing beautifully.

And the most amazing part?
Poppy is pure happiness.

She loves everyone she meets, greets the world with a wagging tail, and soaks up every bit of love she can. She enjoys short walks, rides great in the car, and is learning just how good life can be.

As a young pup, she can be a little mouthy, so an adult only or older-child home would be best. She may also do well with cats with proper introductions. A single-story home will help her thrive as a Tripawd.
She really enjoys having a dog friend and would love one who has a softer, balanced play style.
Poppy has been through more than we’ll ever fully know… and still, she chooses to trust, to love, and to be happy.

Now all she needs is a family who will love her back — forever.

❤️❤️ Meet Xander — Your Velcro Valentine ❤️❤️
🐾 Adoption Fee: $250 15 pounds 6 years 9 months old.
Xander is a deeply affectionate, people-loving boy who wants nothing more than to be right by your side ❤️ He’s happiest following you room to room, cuddling close, and soaking up quiet companionship.
He’s friendly with visitors and workers, gets along great with his poodle sister, and is playful, sweet, and easy to handle ❤️ Grooming, medications, and vet visits are a breeze, and he enjoys neighborhood walks and safe off-leash time with excellent recall.
Xander does have ongoing eye and allergy needs and must eat Hill’s Prescription Diet z/d (canned only), so his adopter should be comfortable with routine medical care ❤️
❤️ If you’re looking for a loyal shadow with a big heart and endless love to give, Xander may be your perfect Valentine ❤️

UPDATE- ADOPTED AND LIVING HIS BEST LIFE
Hello… I’m Coco Puff. 🧡
I’m sorry to bother you, but I’ve been waiting for my forever home for a little while now. Is it because I’m a senior? I know I’m 14… and I was really hoping I’d find my forever family before—well, you know.

My mom would have kept me forever if she could. But she had to move into assisted living, and can you believe it? They wouldn’t let me go with her. So here I am, still wagging my heart out and hoping someone sees me.

I’m a 14-year-old, 7.5-pound gentleman with the sweetest soul. I’m house-trained, well-mannered, and absolutely love being with people. I may be small, but my heart is huge. I enjoy gentle companionship, cozy naps, and quiet moments with my person.
I don’t have teeth anymore (no worries—I eat just fine!) and I have cataracts, but they don’t slow me down one bit. I get around just fine and adapt beautifully. Mostly, I just want a soft place to rest, kind hands to pet me, and someone to love.
If you’ve ever thought about opening your heart to a senior dog, please consider me. I still have so much love to give—and I would be honored to spend my golden years with you. 🐾💛
