Where Your Purchase Helps Support Rescue!

Who We Are

Catahoula Rescue Inc - IL is a small, nonprofit group of volunteers dedicated to rescuing, training and rehoming unwanted or abandoned Catahoula Leopard Dogs. Our mission is to advocate for homeless Catahoulas and Catahoula mixes, to place these animals in permanent, loving homes, and to promote responsible guardianship through humane education. Most of our adoptees come from shelters. We also assist Catahoula owners who need help with behavioral or training issues to prevent more Catahoulas from ending up in shelters. All of our dogs are in foster homes; we do not have a physical shelter for you to visit.

Adopting a Catahoula

The Catahoula breed is not for everyone! They are a working dog and need a job that challenges them mentally and physically. Catahoulas excel at herding, agility, dock diving, flyball and many other performance sports. Catahoulas are highly intelligent and do best in active homes. The first step in adopting a Catahoula is to fill out an adoption application. An application can be obtained by contacting us at catahoularescue@cbcast.com We have dogs coming into rescue on a continual basis; so if we don't have the one your looking for now, fill out an application, and we will notify you when a dog fitting your description comes into rescue.

Adoption fees help to offset expenses incurred in rescue. Our tax-deductible adoption fee is $350. All dogs are spayed/neutered, up to date on all vaccines including rabies, microchipped, fecal tested and dewormed and heartworm tested with preventative started if old enough. Catahoula Rescue receives no funds from other groups or government sources. Our work is paid for by donations, adoption fees, and the volunteers themselves. If you are interested in adopting one of our Catahoulas in need, please email us for an application.

Volunteers and Fosters Needed!

Catahoula Rescue, Inc. needs volunteers to help save these great dogs. We need people not only to help foster dogs, but to assist in many other ways. This includes transporting, checking shelters, helping with placement, assisting at adoption days, public relations, and fund raising. You can also Sponsor A Dog! Many people are unable to foster a dog but would like to help. There is no better way to help than to sponsor a dog of your choice. This donation will help offset the cost of vet care, food, and anything else the dog may need. If you are interested in volunteering to help us save these dogs, please contact Michelle or Amanda at catahoularescue@cbcast.com
