BOB - MOUNTAIN CUR / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Mountain Cur / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 350. Bob is a 5-year-old mountain cur mix with a gentle soul and a big heart—especially when it comes to other dogs. He truly thrives with canine companionship and will do best in a home with at least one resident dog to help him feel confident and complete. Bob’s journey to safety is one that tugs at the heart. He was traveling on a transport van carrying dogs and cats to the safety of an IL rescue during a recent winter storm when the unthinkable happened. The van hit a patch of ice, slid off the road, and was totaled. During the accident, Bob’s crate was tossed and opened. Terrified and disoriented, Bob ran. For days, dedicated volunteers searched for him through snow and bitter cold, refusing to give up hope. Finally, with patience, kindness, and perseverance, they were able to gently coax Bob back into a crate and bring him to safety. Remarkably, all volunteers and animals involved in the accident escaped unharmed—a true testament to both luck and teamwork. Today, Bob is warm, safe, and soaking up love in his foster home. He’s learning that the world can be kind and that good things—like soft beds, full bellies, and friendly dogs—are here to stay. Bob loves other dogs and takes comfort in their presence, making him an ideal companion for a multi-dog household. Bob is now ready for the final chapter of his journey: a forever home where he’ll never have to be scared or alone again.
