About Maggie

Hi I'm Maggie! I am nervous in new situations and need a home that will give me time and space to adjust. I came in as a stray so my history with kids, dogs, and cats is unknown. I would likely do best in a calmer environment and proper management and slow introductions will help set me up for success.

About Black Mouth Cur Dogs

Black Mouth Curs are rugged, versatile Southern working dogs known for their loyalty, courage, and strong work ethic. They get their name from the distinctive dark muzzle that most carry. Originally bred for hunting, herding, and guarding homesteads, they are tough and capable.

Adopting a Black Mouth Cur brings a devoted, protective companion into your family. They bond deeply with their people and are gentle with children. Their high energy and intelligence mean they do best with active families who can give them plenty of exercise and purpose.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

15°F to 42°F

Dec – Feb

Colorado Springs winters bring cold spells and snow, but sunny days often warm quickly at this altitude. The strong UV exposure at 6,035 feet means light-skinned pets may need sun protection even in winter. Garden of the Gods trails are accessible year-round with proper gear.

Spring

28°F to 62°F

Mar – May

Spring weather is unpredictable, with possible snowstorms one day and warm sunshine the next. Carry extra water on hikes as pets dehydrate faster at altitude. Palmer Park and North Cheyenne Canyon Park offer beautiful spring hiking as wildflowers emerge.

Summer

55°F to 88°F

Jun – Aug

Pleasant, dry summers are perfect for mountain trails and outdoor adventures. Watch for afternoon lightning storms and keep pets off exposed ridges during thunderstorms. Carry extra water as the altitude and dry air cause faster dehydration.

Fall

30°F to 70°F
