Kentucky is a lucky hound dog. He was found emaciated and stray with a leg injury. A good samaritan took him in and brought him back to health. He has a sweet personality and makes friends easily. He's calm and gentle and does not have much prey drive. He's housebroken and walks well on a leash, sleeps quietly in his crate, and plays well with other dogs. Kentucky arrived in Massachusetts with a slight limp which seems to be related to his injury. He has been to the vet for an exam and will have an orthopedic consult and possible surgery. He is currently available for adoption with the agreement that NECR will cover the costs of any needed treatments. Kentucky is 4-5 yrs old and weighs about 50 lbs. He is fostering and ready for visits on Cape Cod.

About our rescue
We are a foster based rescue. Our dogs are in foster homes throughout the area or in some cases in the south waiting to be transported north. We do not have a physical shelter. However, meet and greets are set up for approved applicants.

Our Adoption Process

Once the phone interview is completed, we will check your vet reference as well as a personal reference and conduct a home visit.
