ADOPTED! MATTEO! HAPPY TAILS!


Hi there! Matteo here - your favorite pint-sized shadow and professional snuggler. At just 14lbs, I may be the smallest in the house, but I’ve got a heart that could fill a stadium. Thanks to the kind folks at CDR, I found the perfect forever family: two fur siblings and three great hoomans. We're already a tight-knit little pack. I may be the new guy, but I can keep up with the best of them (especially when treats are involved, hehe). Whether we’re sunbathing, playing chase, or just curling up together for naps, I’m right where I belong. Cheers to a lifetime of love, tail wags, and being the tiny boss of the house. Thank you, CDR, for helping me find my happy ending. – May 2025 adoption 🐶🖤🐾

 
 

Our Mission

 

California Doodle Rescue is a 501 C-3 non-profit (EIN 88-0967716) dog rescue.

Our mission is to rescue, foster, and find safe loving homes for poodle mixed breed dogs affectionately known as 'Doodles'. This includes Labradoodles, Goldendoodles, Aussiedoodles, Bernedoodles, Sheepadoodles, and many more.

We support and promote humane animal regulation through the encouragement of neutering and spaying of dogs, to promote quality medical treatment and care of such dogs, and to provide suitable long term facilities for the humane care and treatment of lost and abandoned poodle mixed breed dogs.

We promote concepts of nonviolence and unconditional love for animals, no kill shelters in California, and to provide a safe haven for neglected, abused and unwanted poodle mixed breed dogs.

We also provide educational opportunities to persons desiring to learn about dog rescue organizations, puppy mills and hoarding situations, as well as the proper care, treatment and medical attention required by dogs.

About Us

Our directors are doodle enthusiasts, who have had extensive experience working with national dog rescues. During this time, they recognized an immense demand for rescuing doodles right here in California. So, in February 2022, they established a 501 C-3 non-profit rescue that serves California residents. Since then, California Doodle Rescue has re-homed and adopted over 3,000 doodles to loving families across the state. 


While our directors are based in Southern California, we do not have a physical facility. Instead, we operate by fostering doodles in private volunteer homes until suitable adoptive families are found. This is made possible by dedicated and wonderful volunteers. Without their help, these doodles may otherwise end up in shelters.

We rely on adoption fees and your generous donations which are highly valued and deeply appreciated. Your contributions assist us in covering  essential operating expenses such as fostering costs and pet supplies, paying for expensive veterinary bills, and facilitating transportation for these precious doodles.
