My story

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

Mary Ellen is a 35 lb Cattle Dog/Mountain Cur mix with a heart that’s ready to heal. She’s had a rough start to life and truly needs a confident, experienced dog owner who can help her feel safe and continue building her trust.

Once she’s comfortable in her surroundings, Mary Ellen becomes playful, affectionate, and eager to bond. She is housebroken, walks nicely on a leash, and already knows basic commands—she’s a smart girl who wants to please!

Mary Ellen gets along well with other dogs, is good with cats, and would do best with older kids who can respect her boundaries. She has been spayed, fully vaccinated, microchipped and is heartworm negative.

She’s ready for the right person to show her what love, stability, and patience really look like.

Additional adoption info

Adoption fees BEGIN at $100 for cats and kittens but are higher based on care an animal has recieved. Dogs and puppies START at $150 then go up depending on care the animal needs (this means they may be more). An application and references are necessary and I reserve the right to deny adoption if not a good match.

More about this rescue

We do this to save the numerous animals put to sleep each year because of over crowed shelters.
