Sweet Ralphie arrived at NCCR on 6/22/24, rescued from an overcrowded shelter that ran out of room for him. He is an approximately 1-year-old “Labradoodle”, a mix of Poodle and Labrador Retriever. Ralphie weighs just 27 lbs. and is just about done growing. We’re told that he is a little shy, but is warming up as he settles in.

If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first 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.

Ralphie is sponsored by Jill Reese, Ron and Brenda Johnson and by Ryan, Ellie, Michael, and Zoey Wise in honor of Cindy Lou, adopted from NCCR and loved by their family since the minute they met her! Thank you everyone!
