A little mini Poodle named Teddy Bear ended up in the Carolina Poodle Rescue a few years back through no fault of his. Now, sadly, at 91/2 years old he is returning; again, through not fault of his. It seems tha this adopted mother died and he found himself homeless again. Poor baby sitting in a shelter in Missouri. Well once again C.P.R. www.CarolinaPoodleRescue.org is coming to his rescue as they would do for any of their own. A long and intricate journey involving more than 10 volunteers will be taking him from the shelter back to a safe place in Pacolet, South Carolina, tomorrow. The tireless volunteers would never see him whither way in a far away shelter, especially the director Donna or the transportation coordinator Bunny who work tireless hours for no pay. The C.P.R. is a federally registered non profit. Any donation is tax deductible. I know these people and on occasion have helped them with transportation and through direct donation of cash. If you have it in your heart to help a wayward Poodle, why not call or email them and offer to be put on their transport list or donate some cash or other items to them. Their name is deceptive; they have rescued other breeds frequently and they are not limited to South Carolina. I have known of rescues that they performed that reached to all the corners of the country. If you are in the area, they love visitors too.
Gayle, I've wanted to get involved with animal transport for quite a while but can't seem to find any groups that need people to do that. When I was in Virginia I met a woman who was part of a relay team who drove 4 hour legs to the next person who would then take the dog to the next stop. I'd love to do that so if you have any information please let me know how to get involved. Poor Teddy Bear he must have been so scared. I have a friend in PA who just adopted a blind poodle from Dogs Deserve Better. They were made for each other. BTW love the music! Too bad Whitney got involved with Bobby Brown. He totally ruined her and her career.
