My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

May
Breed: Catahoula Mix
Age: 9 months +/-
Weight: 50+ lbs
Medical: Up-To Up-To-Date on Vaccinations, spayed
Cat Friendly: No
Dog Friendly: No
Kid Friendly: Unknown
House Trained: Yes
Crate Trained: Yes
Location: Massachusetts

We are looking for a forever home for May. May is an extremely sweet and gentle Catahoula mix that loves people but is not friendly around other animals (fear based aggression). She has a few dog friends from slow and careful introduction and training, but cannot be indoors with any animal or around most dogs unless they are leashed and separated.

Apart from this, May is literally the perfect dog. She is the most
loving, cuddly, and well behaved dogs I've ever had. She has never had an accident in the house or chewed something she isn't supposed to chew *ever*. She loves cuddles, being outside, working on her training, walks and runs. She is fearful of loud noises/commotion, so she would be fantastic for a home with no other animals, and older kids.

If you are interested in adopting May, click at the link below:

Once your application has been received and reviewed, you will be contacted via email or phone by one of our volunteers. After your application is approved, the foster parent for the dog you have selected will contact you to answer any questions you may have and determine if that dog is a good match for your family.

If you have no particular dog in mind, we will be happy to keep your application on file and notify you if the right dog should come into rescue. Catahoula Rescue of New England is an all-volunteer group. Dogs in our program are fostered by volunteers. The foster homes care for our dogs as if they were their own. All dogs have received vaccinations appropriate to age and are spayed or neutered.

May's adoption donation is $300 which includes Rabies, DHLPP, Bordetella, fecal test, heartworm test, is on preventative, microchip and neuter depending on age at time of adoption. We do not have a physical shelter; all of our dogs are fostered in individual foster homes across the New England and Canada.

3.

Additional adoption info

We have a written application followed by a phone interview. If the applicant is approved past this point then we check 2 personal references as well as their vet reference. If they rent we speak with their landlord as well. If all is well at this point then we do a home check. The final step is a meet and greet where the adopter and the household, including dogs travel to meet the new adoptive dog. If all goes well they can adopt. There is an adoption contract and the adoption fee ranges between $200-400 depending on the fees that we put into the particular dog.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

We support local "ma & pa" business before the big box chains since many of us come from some communities. We also attended fairs and "meet & greet" events.

More about this rescue

We are all volunteers that love and appreciate the breed. Our board members all have many years of breed knowledge and have all adopted or fostered rescued animals.
