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.

&#226&#156&#168 Meet Scooby! &#226&#156&#168 Scooby is now a 9-month-old pit mix, weighing about 40 lbs (and not expected to grow any bigger), and he’s already proven himself to be one incredibly resilient and lovable pup. Scooby’s story started off rough—he was cruelly thrown over a fence as a tiny puppy and spent his early months recovering from surgery. Those difficult days are behind him now. Scooby is fully healed, cleared by the vet, and ready to enjoy life as the happy, healthy dog he was always meant to be. Scooby is the full package when it comes to life at home. He is fully crate trained and potty trained, making him an easy addition to any household. He is dog friendly, loves playing with other pups, and has even met a few cats, doing just fine with them. This sweet boy has a playful, goofy personality and loves to play hard, then settle in close for affection. Scooby is especially known for his love of kisses—if you’re looking for a dog who will shower you with affection, he’s your guy. He’s eager to please, full of love, and happiest when he’s with his people. Scooby is ready to find a family who will cherish him, spoil him with cuddles, and give him the safe, happy life he so deeply deserves.

Male, 4 yrs 8 mos
Hagerstown, MD
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Story
Journey has been at the rescue for close to 3 years! Despite his lengthy stay he has continued to be incredibly sweet and affectionate. He is not only friendly towards humans, but also plays well with other dogs, making him an ideal companion for a multi-dog household. He is playful - loves toys. Journey also enjoys meeting new people, always hoping that one of the new humans will take him home. It is hard to believe that this friendly guy has been in rescue for most of his life. Is it because he isn't as pretty as some other dogs? It certainly isn't because of his behavior. Journey is waiting to have a home of his own with people who will provide him with the love and attention he deserves.FOCCAS is a foster based, non-profit rescue in Crossville, TN.

Needs experienced adopter,
Story
Ok, hold onto your hats, primitive breed lovers. Meet Kip! This handsome guy is looking for a new home through no fault of his own. Kip is a smart, loving, energetic, playful pup. He’s a cutie for sure but he is a true Shiba in his temperament. Therefore, we are looking for an adopter who has experience with Shibas or breeds with similar “attitude,” such as Akitas, malamutes, basenjis, chow chows, and other “primitive” or “natural” breeds. Kip is a quick learner and wants to make his person happy, but … he’s definitely not a Labrador. Training the quintessential Shiba is a bit like training a cat. Kip might not be all the way to the “cat end” of the Shiba spectrum, but he’s still not likely to respond well to several boring, repetitive training sessions in your living room. Shibas can be quite vocal, and Kip is no exception, so he should not live in an apartment or other home with shared walls or sound-sensitive human family members. He enjoys playing with his humans and does like toys, but he can be a little rough and nippy when playing, so we are looking for a home with adults only or adults and teens. When our volunteer met Kip, he watched her approach with mild suspicion but was happy to accept tossed treats. Our volunteer did not immediately attempt to pet Kip; instead, she gave him the choice of whether to make contact. In just about one minute he was approaching her and was happy to accept pets and scritches. Kip seems quite social and friendly but, like many Shibas, he is the kind of dog who does need just a minute to be sure an unfamiliar human is not a threat. On one occasion, we’ve been told that he did lunge toward a stranger who reached out to pet him without asking. Therefore, his adopter will need to be ready to advocate for Kip and his need for space. This may diminish with time in a stable home situation and a chance to trust that his humans have his back. Kip seems interested in interacting and playing with other dogs, though his past experience with other dogs is a bit of a mystery and he can be leash reactive. He has high prey drive and will need to be on a leash or in a securely fenced yard because he will want to chase critters. We recommend a home with no cats or small pets. A home with a very dog-friendly dog may work with a proper slow introduction, but Kip would likely also be happy as an only dog. Kip is about 2 years old and weighs around 20 lbs. He will be neutered and brought up to date on vaccinations prior to adoption. He has no known health issues. Kip is housetrained. He does not enjoy being crated but doesn’t need to be as he is not destructive when left alone. An adopter with another dog providing a slow dog-dog intro can use baby gates and/or exercise pens rather than a crate for this boy. Kip’s current owner recently adopted him from another family that did not have time for him. His current owner loves him very much and would love to keep him, but one of her resident dogs has made it very clear that he is not going to accept Kip. So with a heavy heart, Kip’s human is looking for the very best home for him with a Shiba-savvy adopter. We (FFOCAS) are helping her safely rehome Kip. Interested? Please get in touch via email ([ffocas4pets@gmail.com](mailto:ffocas4pets@gmail.com)). We’ll ask you to fill out a rehoming application to keep this process as safe as possible for all involved – especially Kip!
