Description
Dog Breed: Black Mouth Cur / German Shepherd Dog (short coat). Little Man is believed to be a Black Mouth Cur/German Shepherd mix born about January, 2025. He is very attached to his foster family. He prefers to sleep on their bed or on a dog bed right beside them. Black Mouth Curs are believed to be the inspiration behind “Old Yeller”. Little Man gets along with all other dogs, cats and is safe with children. He is leash trained and house trained, a very good dog. Interestingly, he was a stray in a neighborhood, but unlike some strays, was liked and cared for by people. They left out food and water for him, and he never did anything wrong—no digging, chewing, barking, or other disruptive behavior. Our rescue took him in to find him a home because we were concerned about him getting hit by a car on the busy road. Also, because this sweet boy needs a warm place to sleep in the winter, and people of his own to fully bond with. Little Man is neutered and has been brought up to date on all vaccines and health care. Adopt your own piece of the Old South and see how intelligent, people-oriented and loving this mix can be. $50. This covers the cost of spay/neuter, DHPP, Rabies, Flea, tick, heart worm check, worm treatment, and microchip. To adopt, you need to first fill out an application. Go to: rutherfordcountyhumanesociety/dog-adoption-application/ We are located in Western North Carolina. Optional transport is weekly. After your application is approved, we will contact you regarding cost and delivery if you so desire.

Overview:
The Black Mouth Cur is a rugged, intelligent, and versatile working dog with roots deep in the American South, particularly known for its origins in the southeastern United States as a multi-purpose farm and hunting dog. Physically, they are medium to large-sized dogs, typically possessing a short, dense coat in shades of fawn, yellow, or brindle, often accented by their characteristic dark muzzle, which gives them their name. Their build is muscular and agile, perfect for an active lifestyle. In terms of temperament, BMCs are known for being fiercely loyal, brave, and protective of their families, making them excellent companions and watchful guardians. While they can be affectionate and good with children when properly socialized, their high energy levels and need for mental stimulation make them generally unsuitable for apartment living. They thrive in homes with ample space, active owners, and a job to do. With generally robust health, key considerations include potential for hip and elbow dysplasia, common in many active breeds.
