Calvin arrived at NCCR on 4/21/26, a local pup in need of a loving family. He is thought to be between 6-8 years old, and is guessed to be a mix of German Shepherd and Aussie Cattle Dog, although he could have other breeds in his mix. Whatever his heritage, he’s 100% Good Boy! Calvin walks nicely on a leash, rides well in the car, and has been friendly to everyone he has met so far. He may also be house trained – he keeps a tidy kennel. This poor guy came in with some seriously itchy & inflamed skin, but with a vet checkup, some medication, and a healthier diet, he is on the road to recovery. Now all he needs is you! *Approved applicants are welcome to participate in our popular Slumber Party program and take a dog home for up to 2 weeks to make sure he/she is a great fit.   If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first step should be to complete an Adoption Application at www.caninerescue.org. *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application. It takes a lot of time to process the applications, so we ask for your patience while we do so. If you see that the dog you were interested in has been adopted it means there were many applications for that dog and we did not get as far processing your application before a home was found. We welcome you to apply again when you see another dog that interests you. If you have a question, please email us at adoptions@caninerescue.org. It is much easier and quicker for us to respond by email as we receive many phone calls each day. We do adopt out of state, however we do not transport or ship dogs. Potential adopters must be able and willing to travel to the Rescue to meet the dog they are interested in. *PLEASE double check all of the phone numbers that you provide. If they are incorrect, we will not be able to process your application. Please also let your references know that someone from NCCR will be calling them. Most adoption team members call from their personal phone, so advise your references that there may be an unknown or private number calling them. Thank you!
