I have been keeping a close eye on doodle rescues for the past year or so. As of the end of this year I will be in a dog friendly situation and so will finally be able to adopt a doodle!
Do you currently own a dog? If not, have you owned dogs as an adult, with vet records in your own name (not parents' names)?
I have no pets right now. I have always had pets growing up and have been waiting until the right time to make the commitment.
If you are looking to adopt a doodle, why have you chosen this mix?
I think they are gorgeous and I like that they are minimal shedders. I love their friendly and playful personality - such unique personalities!
Have you read our adoption policies, located under the "About DRC" tab?
Yes
Are you aware that many doodles are not allergy friendly and that many of them do shed?
Yes
Are you aware that we do not adopt to homes with children under 10, and that we do not adopt dogs for service work?
Yes
Are you now involved in Rescue? If so, how? Are you interested in volunteering with our rescue?

Melissa, does this mean you are a first time dog owner? We require previous dog ownership as an adult with vet records. However there are tons of dogs needing rescuing.

Melisa, if you had both physical and financial dog experience with vet records in your name then you certainly are not a first time dog owner.

4. GOOGLE shelters and humane societies within your driving range. Check their sites often.
5. If you are looking only for a small doodle, please look at the shelters where there are often small poodle mix dogs. The white ones are often Bichon/poodle mixes which would be guaranteed non-shed.
