Story
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.

Story
Gwen – The Right Dog, Waiting for the Right Home Gwen is a genuinely good dog—she just needs the right environment to prove it. She’s the kind of dog that doesn’t demand attention. She watches, she learns, and when she feels safe, she gives you everything. Gwen is soft, affectionate, and naturally handler-oriented. Once she decompresses, she becomes deeply connected—following you from room to room, settling at your feet, and choosing you every time. And here’s the part that matters—Gwen already has a foundation. She is crate trained, has solid house manners, understands basic 7 commands and walks on leash with no pulling. She understands structure. She responds to leadership. She is not a project dog. But she is a sensitive dog. In a calm, structured environment, Gwen relaxes, opens up, and becomes an incredibly easy, rewarding companion. In high-energy, unpredictable environments—especially with younger children—she can become overwhelmed and unsure. Not reactive without reason, not unstable—just honest about her limits. Gwen will only be placed in a home with children 10 years or older. She communicates appropriately. She tries to create space. She looks for guidance. That’s not a flaw. That’s a dog asking for clarity. Gwen doesn’t need to be fixed—she needs to be placed correctly. In the right home, you’re not getting a “maybe” dog. You’re getting: A dog with a solid foundation A dog that walks well, settles well, and lives well A dog that will bond deeply and stay loyal A dog that loves and thrives with other dogs of all ages She has also shown neutral curiosity around cats with no clear prey drive, and with proper structure and introductions, may be able to coexist. Gwen is for someone who values connection over chaos. Someone who understands that the best dogs aren’t always the loudest—they’re the ones who quietly become everything. She’s ready. She’s just waiting for someone to meet her where she is—and give her the life she’s been trying to step into.
