Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Curly – A Gentle Soul Searching for Safety and Love 🐾💔
Sweet Curly was saved just in time—from a fate no dog deserves. Since arriving on March 30, 2024, he’s been slowly finding his footing, but the shelter is no place for a dog like him. Fearful and overwhelmed, Curly needs a chance to heal in a quiet, patient, and loving home.
Curly isn’t aggressive—he’s just scared. The world has not been kind to him so far, but we believe, with all our hearts, that it’s not too late for this tender soul to discover what it means to be safe, loved, and part of a family.
He’s very sensitive to noise and would thrive in a calm, low-traffic home without young children. He would greatly benefit from having another dog—especially a kind and confident female—to help show him the way. Despite his fears, Curly is sweet and longs for connection, even if he doesn’t quite know how to ask for it yet.
Right now, Curly is too frightened to be touched, even for something as simple as a brushing. But we know that with time, consistency, and zero pressure, he’ll begin to trust. He just needs someone patient, understanding, and willing to move at his pace. Someone who sees not just who he is today, but who he could become.
Curly has never had a real chance. Could you be the one to give it to him?
We are seeking a very special foster or adopter—someone who can offer a safe, quiet space, a steady routine, and unwavering patience. In return, you’ll witness the incredibly rewarding transformation of a dog learning, possibly for the first time, what love really means.
Please consider opening your heart to Curly. He doesn’t need perfection—he just needs someone who won’t give up on him.
Curly is Pets for Patriots eligible. See more here: https://www.petsforpatriots.org/forget-me-not/curly-ga/

More about this rescue
The mission of Castoff Pet Rescue is to save and nurture homeless dogs; to match companion animals with loving, life-long homes; to foster responsible pet care; to control overpopulation in our community through spay/neuter programs; and to assist other shelters and rescue groups in any endeavor to benefit the animals. We believe that the same kindness, compassion, and generosity we extend to our two-legged neighbors should be given to our four-legged friends because they are not able to speak for themselves.
