My story

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

Callie

Breed: Catahoula Leopard Hound Mix
Age: 3 year +/- est
Weight: 40 lbs
Medical: Up-To Up-To-Date on Vaccinations, microchipped, spayed
Cat Friendly: No
Dog Friendly: Yes
Kid Friendly: Ages 8+
House Trained: Yes
Crate Trained: Yes
Location: South Carolina
Callie is a very loving, high energy, and an attention needing love bug. She thrives on have a job to keep her focused and she could use a challenge. She would exceed in anything you put her to do as long as you take the time and patience with her. She loves to run all around the yard, she never gets tired. When she is inside, she does love to counter-surf, always following her nose, looking for a snack. She does love to be outside the most, so if you are looking for hiking, running, walking or just a camping buddy – so she would be it!

Callie loves to cuddle, and she has lived with young children, however she doesn’t quite understand that the kids come first in the cuddle realm. She also doesn’t understand that she needs to not play NASCAR around the wee little ones. With that being said, we recommend slightly older children in the home.

She has been great with other dogs; however, all bets are off when it comes to them near her food bowl and crate. She can at times be a little insecure about her belongings and will need some work on that.
As far as leash walking, Callie does well, could always use more practice!

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.

Callie’s adoption donation is $350 which includes Rabies, DHLPP, Bordetella, fecal test, heartworm test, is on preventative, microchip and neuter depending on age at time of adoption. If the dog is too young for a spay/neuter then they will be adopted with a spay/neuter contract and deposit. We do not have a physical shelter; all our dogs are fostered in individual foster homes across the New England and Canada.

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.

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.
