Rescue poodles and doodles for adoption and rehoming in and around Folkestone

As of 8 November 2026, no poodles and doodles are listed for adoption in and around Folkestone on LocalPetFinder. Rescues add animals all the time, so this page fills as they list them.

The Royal Kennel Club lists all three Poodle sizes as not shedding, though the coat needs grooming every day. It publishes no such listing for Cockapoos, Cavapoos or Labradoodles, which are not on its breed A to Z. Battersea says Cockapoo shedding varies from very little to noticeable, so ask the rescue about a particular cross.

Not reliably. Battersea says Cockapoos are "not hypoallergenic as coat type varies a lot and no dog is fully allergy-friendly". If someone in your home has allergies, ask the rescue whether you can spend time with the dog before you commit.

Each rescue sets its own adoption fee. Battersea charges £230 for a dog over six months and £275 for a puppy under six months, Dogs Trust charges £300 for a puppy or adult dog in England, Wales and Scotland, and Blue Cross fees start from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over and £335 for dogs aged 1 to 7. The fee usually covers neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations, and each rescue confirms its own fee.

No. We don't list animals for sale. Every poodle or doodle on this page is with a rescue or rehoming centre. Rescues rehome animals rather than selling them, usually for an adoption fee: for example, Battersea charges £230 for a dog over six months and £275 for a puppy under six months, and Dogs Trust £300. The fee usually goes towards vet work already done, such as neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations. If you searched "cockapoo puppies for sale Folkestone", the poodles and doodles here are the rescue route: you apply to the rescue and pay its adoption fee, not a sale price. In England, Lucy's Law has meant since 6 April 2020 that puppies under six months can't be sold by a third party such as a pet shop or dealer: you buy direct from the breeder or adopt from a rehoming centre.

Usually not. UK rescues normally ask for an adoption fee, which pays towards neutering, microchipping and vaccinations. Many rescue fees are under £500: Battersea charges £230 for a dog over six months, Dogs Trust £300, and Blue Cross from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over. An animal offered "free to a good home" is usually a private advert rather than a rescue. All dogs in the UK must be microchipped by 8 weeks old, and in England, Wales and Scotland a dog can't pass to a new keeper until it is chipped, so ask to see the microchip details.

Not right now: no poodles and doodles are listed in and around Folkestone today, so there are no puppies either. Puppies do get listed, and rescues can tell you much more about an adult's character, so check back.
