Beautiful Fawna arrived at NCCR on 7/25/25, anxious about what the future holds for her, but ready to give it a try! After years of producing puppies for profit, she is more than ready to begin her next chapter. Fawna, a 5 ½ year old female mini poodle, didn’t have the benefit of a loving family or good treatment in her previous life. She is hoping to find someone who will be patient with her while she adjusts to things, who will treat her kindly, and who will give her the nurturing and understanding she needs to thrive. Fawna may not have a very good opinion of people right now, but she is ready to rethink things and change her outlook, she’s just waiting for someone to help her get there! Treat her right and you’ll have a devoted forever companion to love. A fenced yard is required.

If you still think you might be interested in adopting, the next step should be to complete an Adoption Application. *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application. It takes a lot of time to process the applications, so we ask for your patience while we do so. If you see that the dog you were interested in has been adopted it means there were many applications for that dog and we did not get as far as processing your application before a home was found. We welcome you to apply again if you see another dog that interests you. If you have a question, please email your question to adoptions@caninerescue.org. It is much easier and quicker for us to respond by email as we receive many phone calls each day.
We do adopt out of state, however we do not transport or ship dogs. Potential adopter must be able and willing to travel to the Rescue to meet the dog they are interested in.
*PLEASE double check all of the phone numbers that you provide as if they are incorrect, we will be unable to process your application. Please also let your references know that someone from NCCR will be calling them. Most adoption team members call from their personal phone so advise your references that there may be an unknown number or a private number calling them.
Fawna is kindly sponsored by Pauletta Abbey, Jellybean (former NCCR resident) and Doodlebug Parker, Suzanne, Tillie Mae and Mimzie in memory of Bron Bron, Kelsey Thomas, Marilyn and Jerry Bertges in memory of Libby and by Bette Lou Wisler. Thank you everyone!
