My personality

My story

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

Colt-Carolina/Black Mouth Curr male, ~ 2 yr. (Dec. 2025)
Contact rescuebc@hotmail.com for an application.
Colt came to Rescue when saved from a high kill rural shelter. The lead Trainer with a Prison Program heard of his need to be saved and saw the talent and great disposition in Colt. He was taken from the Shelter, to be in the Prison Progam.
This cross, Carolina Black Mouth Curr will be medium to large and muscular yet slender in build. Their coats are usually short and dense that can be brown, tan, or yellow, with or without white areas around their body. The Carolina Black Mouth Cur mix may have a shy nature at first but will accept its human as part of the pack once it has formed a close bond with them. They may be wary of strangers, are known to have protective instincts with children, and can thrive in a multi-pet household.
Colt is medium in size, about 50#.
In the Prison Program he has good husbandry skills, crate training, rides in car. Colt's obedience training started, and after he has been with us for a week, his real personality came out. Very happy boy and does have that shy nature at this point in his life. But he's also gone through a lot in his short life and when in a stable, kind environment, he may overcome some of the shyness.
Colt's Adoption fee is $350 to help cover the medical costs of getting ready for adoption. For our application, please email rescuebc@hotmail.com Please include your location and a phone number for future communication.

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

Please request an application via email. Please allow 24 hours for a response.

2.

Approve Application

Once your application has been reviewed and approved, we will contact you to arrange a meeting with our pets.

3.

Visit the Facility and Find a Pet

Visit our pets at a Meet and Greet adoption event. Approved adopters will be able to adopt that day.

4.

Sign Adoption Contract

We will review the medical records and contract. The adoption fee is cash only.

Additional adoption info

The first step in the adoption process is to request an application from rescuebc@hotmail.com. Please allow 1-2 days to receive the application. Please be patient as we are 100% volunteer supported. We will need several days to make the calls on your application. The current pets in the home must be spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines and annual exams, and currently on heartworm preventative for dogs. You must be 21 years of age and gainfully employed.
Once you are approved, a volunteer will contact you and invite you to a Meet and Greet to visit with a pet. All our pets are fostered in private homes and only come to the event when they have a potential adopter.
Plan to spend 1-2 hours at the Meet and Greet. It takes time to unload our pets and give them an opportunity to relieve themselves. You will have time to visit with a pet to decide if this is the right pet for your family. You will be required to sign a legal contract and we will go over the medical records with you. You will be required to take your new pet to the vet within 7 days of adopting.
We charge an adoption fee for all of our animals. This fee varies depending on the vetting requirements of that particular animal. The adoption fee is cash only.
If you have any questions, please email rescuebc@hotmail.com.
