Adopt a Mountain Cur in Massachusetts

Mountain Curs are tough, agile, and intelligent Southern working dogs originally bred for hunting and farm work. They appear in shelters across Appalachia and the South. A rescued Mountain Cur is a smart, loyal companion for an active home.

Massachusetts has a highly active rescue dog community, with most local shelters running primarily on transport from Southern states. Boston, Worcester, and Springfield are major hubs. A rescued Massachusetts dog has usually traveled north through one of these well-established transport networks.
