Catahoula Rescue, Inc. is a nonprofit, 501(c) 3 corporation staffed entirely by volunteers who try to help Catahoulas and Catahoula mixes escape needless death and find a happy home. Volunteers provide foster care and basic training for dogs that they rescue from pounds, keeping them safe and preparing them to join their new families.

  Foster homes are needed in all parts of the country! You can make arrangements to foster one of “Monday’s Dogs” by contacting the Catahoula Rescue volunteer listed as contact for the specific dog you are interested in helping. Transportation can be arranged to bring the dog to you and from your home to a forever home. If you cannot take a dog into your home but would still like to help, you might consider becoming a "virtual foster". Virtual fosters sponsor a rescue dog's boarding costs until an adopter or foster home is found or donate towards vet bills for a sick or injured dog.

 Please see the Donation links at the bottom of the page.

Jager
Tennessee
406-323-3519
Adopt Me

Jager is in dire urgency. He is in temporary foster care in Tennessee. He is part of a group of dogs we call the "Frontier Dogs", they come from many different walks of life and sadly we do not know all of their stories, and hopefully the next chapters of their lives will be written with much tenderness and happiness. We call them the “Frontier Dogs” because they will now be are entering a new frontier. Many were taken from shelters and abusive situations with the best of intentions, only to have them end up back in a similar and in some ways much worse situation. Now for many this will be their third and forth chance at new a beginning, and this time there CAN be no failure, they will be entering a fresh “Frontier”, a new beginning. Please open your hearts to these dogs. They are all gentle souls, with big hearts, that need love, time and patience. If you cannot adopt, please donate or foster. We need help in many forms of contributions, whether it is food, medical, or homes. Anything you can spare is appreciated. Jager is a very athletic pup that needs lots of play an d exercise (he isn't getting it now folks) . He uses other dogs as punching bags, he has been this way since day one.He is not believed to be dog aggressive as he will submit to an alpha male. If Jager were an athlete he would be the star quarterback. He is so athletic and the SMARTEST worried puppy ever. He is a big cuddler although boarding has made him distant and withdrawn now. He is unhappy. The heart is being taken out of him. He had only been worked with positive reinforcements, never punishment and he responds wonderfully. He knows some commands. He is super playful or was. He plays fetch. He will play with a soccer ball stuff ed with fluff for a long time. He pops air filled ones. He is a young dog, medium size and weight who IS A PUPPY, chews and digs and returned to the shelter after an adoption because of that.They loved him but didn't know how to control it. (CRATE TRAIN FOLKS) I can work with this. HE ACTS tough to other dogs but he is not that way, it is a bluff. He needs to be part of a home and family and be loved. Without this he is just a rack of bones with fur and a heartbeat but nothing else. He is chipped and neutered and ready to go.Won't someone step up for him? I am sad and sick for this dog. I am begging!!! He has been waiting since MARCH. IN a small kennel, waiting waiting waiting and giving up.

Ellie Mae

406-323-3519
Adopt Me

This dog is super urgent, her family can nolonger keep her and is threatening to send her to shelter.Spayed Female Catahoula, 14-months, with all shots updated and micro chipped. She’s 27-lbs, and about 19” tall. Coloring is grey, black & white. She is a very loving dog who is somewhat skittish but once she warms up to you that goes away. She's very energetic and loves to play, understands commands to Sit and Lay Down and is learning Wait. She is housebroken and we've taught her to use the doggie door in the short time we've had her so she is able to go out to the back patio to potty. She barks at unfamiliar noises but we’re working on the Quiet command. She walks well on a leash using the Gentle Leader but still pulls without it.

Snoop
MO

Adopt Me

Snoop is 9 yrs old, Snoop is a sweetheart of a dog, veeeeery smart, who is trying hard to keep his chin up. Shelter life is hard on him though, and the poor boy longs for a home. Snoop likes other dogs and will wait to go potty outside, he will bark to let you know he has to go, the person who dropped him off was not the owner but told the shelter he was abandoned by his owner. He is great on a leash and a very easy going dog. Please save him before its too late. $65 to pull him and he will be fully vetted. Snoop is heartworm positive but the fee for his treatment is sponsored (100%).

Adopt Me

Harley is 5 yrs old, 50 lbs, likes other dogs and kids (not been around cats). He likes to play with the other dogs and loves toys. He is neutered and up to date on shots.

It is very cold here now, very hot in summer, he has an igloo, no blanket. He has dug many holes I'm sure from boredom, and the front of his igloo is tipped in to one of the holes and the igloo is full of dirt. He can see some light and dark and shadows. He can hear just fine. Harley would be eternally gratefull for help! His owner will PTS if we can't find him a home.
