ADOPTED ON 05-06-17 : PLEASE CONSIDER SAVING SWEET DIXIE It is doubtful you will ever see a cuter little girl than Dixie. Her big, brown eyes and beautiful coloring will melt your heart. Those ears will make you want to scoop her up and dote on her all day long. And that is exactly what she deserves. Dixie, is a Brindle Catahoula Cur, she is 5 1/2 months old; she is small and has a very sweet personality! She has been on heartworm prevention and is good with dogs!

Dixie is down south and is at risk---we desperately need to move her; the fosters home is full and when that happens, regretfully, we have to look at alternative solutions. It is so difficult for us, each dog is always remembered, wondering if we could have done more. However, if RDVG can commit Dixie to an Adopter or Foster, we can save her.

Dixie smiles all the time and has shown us that she would be a great addition to a family with young kids. She loves attention, as most puppies do. She is learning quickly and has a wonderful disposition. Nevertheless, we need to get Dixie to a safe loving home where she will have a chance at life. She is happy and healthy and ready to go to her forever home.

Please take a moment and consider adopting or fostering Dixie. She is a very good dogs with no behavioral problems. It is difficult to sum up a dog's personality when a dog is first picked up by animal control and brought to the dog pound. At the pound the primary focus is on two issues: physical health and temperament. A thorough exam of the dog is done to analyze any medical issues and then preventive medicine is done next. Through that process, Dixie has passed every test. She deserves a loving home after her very rough start.
Adoption donation includes transport and all vaccinations, except for the Lyme—therefore, the dogs will not need to get any vaccinations for the first year.

This dog cannot be adopted to Massachusetts residents due to new laws regarding rescue
dogs being prohibited from adoption. Please contact Patricia Cabral at: 617-626-1786 or Mike Cahill at: 617-626-1794
for questions regarding what dogs you are allowed to adopt.



PLEASE TAKE A MINUTE TO CHECK OUT THE SECTION BELOW: RDVG wants to provide you with as much information as we can because some of our mix breeds you might not be familiar with. The below section on “About the Breed” offers information on some of the Breed Characteristics, Children & Pets, Behavior and Personality, Temperament and more.

It is important to point out that in addition to the breed, there is an enormous variety in the way a dog acts and reacts to the world around him. In the end, your dog's preferences and personality are as individual as you are--and if you can accept that--then you're bound to enjoy each other.

Our rescue is ONLY in the business of offering FULL DISCLOSURE to adopters, and expects and hopes to engage your questions and concerns fully. We owe it to the dogs we rescue and all the wonderful families/adopters who might consider welcoming our charges into their hearts and home. Our dogs are waiting for that ideal forever home where they will be cherished as deserving family members. It's sad these second chances are even necessary for these dogs, but we are committed to them and will devote the time and energy to their rehoming, and not just MOVE them to save more dogs. We diligently and responsibly seek good matches as we don't want to re-home the dog again. These animals have already endured more than they should have, and through no fault of their own. It behooves us to be honest and forthright, and we appreciate the same in return from applicants. It's that winning combination of reciprocal trust and respect that allows for successful placements to be made. Happy adopters translate to happy dogs, and that's our goal!

Also, take care to contact your veterinarian to let them know a member of rescue will be inquiring about your pet history!

Thank you for respecting that we all donate our time to saving these animals, and understand we value your philanthropic and compassionate desire to help be part of the rescue team. That said, you'll understand why we are committed to the well-being of our charges and consider this veterinarian check mandatory. If you are a first-time dog owner, we will work with you every step of the way! ADVOCACY AND EDUCATION ARE AS MUCH A PART OF RESPONSIBLE RESCUE AS ADOPTION! And it takes a RESCUE VILLAGE to help the most dogs possible in a thorough manner to ensure success on all fronts, and then some! It is an awful feeling to fail a dog, and we can't continue rescue if we don't do everything we can to ensure good matches for the dogs and tender families who might adopt them. THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING.

Although we are an extremely small rescue group, we understand and respect your family's eagerness to be in touch and learn as much as you can about the dogs you are considering adopting. Our very experienced and devoted trainer will be happy to share all aspects of OUR RESCUE DOGS to determine compatibility once you've submitted your application, and another of our volunteers will explain the whole process of our rescue and answer any questions you might have as well
