My story

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

GALO

Breed: Black Mouth Cur & Terrier Mix
birthday: 7/26/2023
Weight: 30 pounds
Health: Healthy, vaccinated and spayed

Personality

Galo is full of personality—bold, clever, and full of heart. She has the confidence of a much bigger dog but the charm of a scrappy little adventurer. Galo is quick on her feet and always alert, making her an excellent sidekick for active families, hikers, or anyone who enjoys an outdoor lifestyle. She can be a bit reserved at first, but once she feels secure, her sweet and goofy side shines through. Galo will make you laugh with her expressive eyes and playful antics. She enjoys working through puzzles and treats with determination and will curl up beside you like a loyal shadow once she’s had her playtime. She’s a little dog with a big soul—loving, bright, and incredibly devoted.

Breed Information

Black Mouth Curs are known for their courage, intelligence, and versatility as working and companion dogs. Mixed with Terrier, Galo likely has added tenacity and alertness. She’s a great size for families or those living in smaller homes but still needs regular activity.

More about this rescue

We are dedicated to saving dogs from high kill shelters, strays, owner surrenders and hoarders. We have been saving animals since December 2016. We hold weekly adoption events at various pet stores and pet expos. We hire dog walkers to walk our dogs and we have volunteers who help us weekly. Many of our dogs go to boarding and training to become adoptable and work on their behavioral issues. All our dogs are assessed to find a great family match.

All dogs receive all necessary medical attention and all dogs are vetted.
