Ginger is a sweet, young Catahoula Leopard mix (maybe black lab) who is looking for her forever home! At just about 60lbs she is the perfect size and loves to crawl in your lap. Ginger has been nothing but a wonderful guest in our home and has learned the routine here quickly. She is house trained and mostly crate trained, sleeps well by herself or with others, and nondestructive when left alone. Ginger has done amazing with all the other dogs in the home, both females and males ranging from 65lbs to 105lbs. Ginger loves toys of all kinds and can stay busy by herself, but she does love a good game of fetch or tug with humans and other dogs. Ginger is very eager to please and is treat/food motivated. She knows basic commands and is well mannered on leash, until that squirrel goes by! She brushes off most triggers in seconds and continues on her way.
Ginger loves riding in the car and is very calm when opening the door to get her out. She does a perfect sit in many situations. Ginger does love to bark at all things and is hesitant of strangers. Ginger would do best in a home without children and even though she is dog friendly, she would strive in a home where she can get all of the attention and go on adventures. Ginger will need daily mental stimulation and physical exercise. Ginger does have trust issues with men but quickly comes around with calm and confident interactions and of course, time. Once she opens up Ginger is very loving and will take all the rubs and treats you are willing to give her!

CRNE Adoption Application:

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.

Ginger’s adoption donation is $450 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.
