SPC

​The Standard Poodle Club, founded in 1965, began its Rescue Service in 1980 in response to the many Standard Poodles down on their luck and needing help.

The service has been in operation now for 45 years and is the oldest established rescue service in the UK.

​

The SPC rescue has rehomed 1215 dogs during this period and so far this year (Aug 2025) have rescued 14 dogs.

SPC Rescue is here to take in standard poodles that need a new home, many through no fault of their owners. However, in recent years, the numbers needing help have grown, while the condition of the dogs coming to us has deteriorated. These dogs need months of care, to recover from abuse and neglect. We take them in and mend their bodies and spirits
 
We can only help these dogs with the generous support of our members and friends. We work as volunteers; feeding, housing, and caring for these dogs until we can find wonderful happy homes for them. Veterinary costs have gone up and we lose significant amounts on each dog we rehome: that shortfall is made up by the generosity of our benefactors.

Rescue 13th Sept 2025

SPC in the last few days successfully rehomed 3 standard poodles. We did this via safe, timely, well established processes including health/behaviour monitoring, Vets visits and thorough home checks.

This is part of a major operation which we expect to continue over several weeks.

We are looking for experienced homes for more rescues. These will need to be from people with a background in training or behaviour.

If you think you may be able to offer a home please contact your rescue rep​ here.

If you have already applied in the last two weeks , please be assured we are dealing with your enquiry.

This work is only possible through the generous donations the Club has received over the years.

Thank you
