Adopt a Belgian Shepherd Malinois / Hound / Mixed (short coat)
Hemy the Dog needs a home
Thank you for your interest in dog who needs a new home. Adoption can be one of the most fulfilling experiences in your life and especially in the life of your new canine companion.
A note to those looking at CPR. We have no perfect dogs - but many of our dogs have proven to be perfect for a certain someone. Our job is to find those someone's. Our most successful adopters come to CPR not because they want a dog. They come to us because they want to give a dog a home. We urge all of our potential adopters not to fall in love with a picture. While we like to know what you like in looks, a dog is more than a pretty face. Our goal is to match you with the best possible pet for you and your home. We want to create furever families.
Our descriptions contain all that we know about this dog today. We'll update as more information is known.
Are you looking to adopt within the next 30 days? If so please visit our webpage at www.carolinapoodlerescue.org and complete the application. You'll find it in the menu on the left hand side. You'll also find a total listing of all our dogs available.
Just browsing but interested in poodles and poodle mixes? Please drop a note to [email protected] with your name, address and phone # and email. We'll add you to our mailing list.
thanks

What kind of home would be best for me? Hemy needs an active home that could possibly give me a job to do! Hemy still does not get along with other dogs and would do best as your one and only boy.
What is my personality like? Hemy is most certainly the type of dog that doesn't let his smelling senses go to waste. Everywhere he goes he is sniffing everywhere out. Once he starts it is hard to divert his attention from it but he could make a great nose work dog. The caregivers have been working with him and have noticed he has gotten better with listening. Hemy is extremely intelligent with a lot of drive. He knows how to sit already and has the potential to learn so much more. He is very treat motivated! Even though he is athletic he still has his sweet/laid back side from time to time. I am a hurricane Irma orphan that was rescued with a few others by Carolina Poodle Rescue. Hemy does not need a ton of attention like a puppy, but we think that he will bond with that right person and be a very loving and loyal dog.
How do I act when I first meet new people? Friendly but he pays more attention to things going on around him.
Other tips and tidbits: One of the "breed experts" here believes Hemy is a Belgian Shepherd Malinois hound mix and he has the personality to go with it. He is still working on leash walking; he pulls with all of his might. But that can be helped with the right kind of harness and training. Hemy is very assertive and alert. You can't sneak anything by him!
House trained? Dogs can be house trained if they are in the right environment and are allowed to follow a schedule as long as a physical reason doesn't keep them from being trained. A dog house trained in my home may not be in yours. We will help you teach your new dog this necessary skill and based on your schedule.
Please note - we do not ship dogs. If you are interested in adopting, please take a look at the distance between the foster home location and your location and make sure you are willing to make that trip. Most of our dogs are at our farm in Pacolet, South Carolina.
To apply, please visit our webpage at www.carolinapoodlerescue.org and visit the tab on the left that directions you to the online application.
Please note that when screening applications, we look at the entire home and then make suggestions based on what would be a good fit for your home. You are not being screened for a specific dog although we are looking to see what type of dog interests you - poodles or non poodles, color, age, etc. Others here may be a better fit for you. It is very difficult to get to know a living animal from a picture and a short description. Since we are constantly getting in new dogs, this may be a dog not in our listings yet. We want you to be very happy with your new companion and will make suggestions based on what you tell us about you.
Thank you for considering CPR.
