Poodles are easy to find in rescue!!
 

There are plenty of poodles available through rescue groups. This site alone lists 19 poodles and poodle mixes:

The average price of these dogs is $200, new babies are $400. That isn't exhorbitant. Perhaps you are referring to dogs from breeders?

Rescue groups seem to be expensive ($200-$500) until you consider the options. We got our pug from Animal Control for an adoption fee of $40. However, he needed dental work which cost us over $1,000. In the end, it would have been less costly to adopt from a pug rescue group. Of course, we love our little Frankie to pieces and don't regret the costs.

$200 is a good price for a rescued dog. A reputable rescue will makes sure the dog has all it's shots, will spay/neuter it if it isn't already, will do dental work, and will take care of any known health issues. I got a free dog once and I also got a dog for $70. Let me tell you the vet bills to get those dogs fixed, vetted, and dental work taken care was way, way more than $200. The one dog I had almost $2,000 in her in just a few months. So $200 is really a great deal unless you have a good friend or relative who is a vet.

We're coming up on 6 weeks with our "Mookie Monster" and couldn't be more pleased. Thank you all for your well wishes.

Mookie you are a beauty!

I love Mookie's intelligent expression! What a beauty!
