Pic of the Week:

Sent in by Brian M.
This is my girl Avery. She was previously
known as Big Bertha before I adopted her.
Before I got married I adopted Avery and my fiancée (now wife) adopted Avery’s
brother Sammy (previously known as Little Joe). They now live together with us
and are taking over our bed. We got our houlas from Staci with Oklahoma
Catahoula rescue.

*Please Remember*: By adopting one
of our foster dogs you save 2 lives!
It frees up space for a dog in a kill shelter that needs to be pulled
and vetted. If our foster dogs don't get homes, we have no room
to pull any of the dogs that are listed below (most of which need
vetting and evaluations by our volunteers). Help us Help more dogs,

Dog!

The dogs listed below have One Week Or Less to Live.
Without Foster or Adoptive homes for these dogs to go to, Catahoula
Rescue Inc. can not pull these dogs from the shelter and save their
lives. Please Contact the Reps listed ASAP if you can help save
one of these dogs.

Lily
FT. Worth, TX
area
979-561-8155
Adopt Me
|
Lily was
apparently dumped beside a farm to market road
outside of Ft. Worth. A woman noticed her in the
same place beside the road for several days ...
apparently waiting for her people to come back and
get her. The woman checked with the animal shelter
and local vets to see if anyone was looking for a
lost dog. When she couldn't find an owner, she
started feeding Lily, who then took up residence on
the woman's front porch. There are already several
dogs in the home, one of whom will not allow another
female into the house or yard. Poor Lily just hangs
around out front and there is concern that she will
get hit by a car on the busy road. She needs a
foster or adopter ASAP. She's probably between 1 and
2 years old, calm and friendly.

This pup is 3-4
months old. He happened to arrive at the Houston
pound while a Catahoula Rescue volunteer was there
pulling another dog. The volunteer said he was very
frightened, but friendly. She also said he is VERY
cute. He is most likely deaf and will not go into
the adoption program. He needs rescue immediately if
he is going to get out alive.

Hank

Hank is a handsome
blue-eyed red leopard boy who was picked up running
stray near Austin, TX. He's in a small town shelter
and his stray hold time is up. Hank can be killed at
any time, but the shelter has agreed to hold him for
evaluation by Catahoula Rescue. A volunteer will
meet him early this week and more information will
be available at that time.

Adopt Me

Cinnamon is a
scared, skinny girl stuck in a very high kill
shelter. She is very worried about what will happen
to her, but she is still gentle and loving to anyone
who shows her kindness. Cinnamon has only a couple
of days to live if we cannot get her out of there.
If you can help us save this pretty dog, please call
Janeen right away!

Jamison
PA
Adopt Me
|
***Update 04/07:
Jamison is still in Urgent need of Rescue!!!!***
Poor Jamison was adopted from the pound, then
returned because he was being food possessive. Dogs
who have spent any time on the streets guard their
food, because they never know when they will get any
more! This behavior can be eliminated easily with a
little training, and Catahoula Rescue Inc. has a
dedicated dog behaviorist who will help teach
Jamison the proper way to behave. The folks at the
pound tell us that Jamison is AWESOME- he is very
dog friendly (used to share a cage with a male pit
bull), people friendly, beautiful and healthy. He is
not really high energy, but athletic and
affectionate. He is male, probably one or two years
old, and already neutered. They do not want to
euthanize this poor boy just because he is food
possessive, but he needs our help to get out of the
pound ASAP, as they are full to capacity and are
forced to euthanize due to space constraints.

Bones is URGENT!
His foster mom is moving and he needs a new foster
home or an adopter ASAP!! If not he'll have to be
boarded. Hi, I'm Bones and I would really like a
home of my own. I'm a very lovable guy and I can
even 'talk' to you. I'm looking for my new best
friend, someone who will love me and give me a home
of my very own. I like to play alot, I'll even sit
on your lap (even though I am 80lbs) if you let me
I'm very silly. I'm 3 yrs old, like other dogs &
kids but not cats, up to date on my shots, neutered,
microchipped, house & crate trained. I love the
water and car rides. So what do you say? How about
giving me a chance to be your best friend? You won't
regret it!!!!!! I promise! I am very handsome with a
blue spot in one of my eyes.

Blizzard
FL
Adopt Me

Blizzard is a
great dog, about one year old. He is house and crate
trained. Blizzard loves to ride in the car...he
entertains ambitions of learning to drive! He is
very playful, loving and likes to give lots of
kisses. Blizzard loves other dogs and children!
Blizzard's only problem is, he thinks cats exist for
him to chase, and his owner's cats are feeling
persecuted. Blizzard needs to find a cat-free home!
He is current on all of his shots, on monthly
heartworm prevention and already neutered...he's
ready to come home with you today!

RAJA
KEY WEST FLORIDA
406-323-3519
Adopt Me

** UPDATE: 4-16/08
This dog still languishes in a low kill shelter
where large dogs are not adopted out quickly. I have
no place for him to go. If the shelter gets full..
he dies. Is the littermate to Phantom. He was pulled
from a Fl high kill shelter and is now in a VERY
VERY TEMP situation. HE IS REALLY URGENT in a true
sense. He and Phantom have always been joined at the
hip and where they are we are not getting much in
the way of home evaluation. We need desperately
someone that can foster these two and help me wean
them and get them ready for adoption. Raja is
outgoing and more secure of the two. A young male
and will be growing into his feet and head. He is
Mastiff X Catahoula. A lovely lovely boy all yellow
and brindle. I NEED HELP WITH THESE TWO DOGS
DESPERATELY. I need someone willing to work closely
with me. I think they are young and will respond
fine in a home environment. IF YOU CAN HELP, we need
to move on it.
