ROSEALYN - HOUND / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Posted Breed: Hound / Mixed (medium coat). Adoption Fee: 400. Rosealyn "Rosie" is a female redbone coonhound estimated to be born Sep 19 2023. She currently weighs about 14lbs but is estimated to be around 35-40lbs when full grown. She is a sweet snuggler who is loving her new pampered life of cuddles, cozy blankets, and working for treats. She will easily melt your heart when snuggling nearby when she sleeps but when she is awake she wants to play, run and chew on all her toys. She currently has 3 young foster siblings who she loves to play with and is very patient with but is learning to keep her puppy teeth to the toys only when she is playing, so a home with children over 5 would be best for now. She has shown no aggression around her food when people are close by and has a huge appetite. Hounds are very social and do best with other dogs in the home so naturally she loves playing with other dogs both big and small and will show you just how fast and outgoing she is when around them! A home with a fence is pretty crucial because this girl is not only curious but fast too and her nose has no boundaries. If you are a runner you are in luck, she will make an excellent running buddy! Rosealyn is not yet comfortable with eating her food around other dogs. She does not have much interest in cats as she would much rather play with her people, dog friends, and toys. Rosealyn is working hard on potty training and is currently using puppy pads. She does a great job going potty outside on command as soon as we go outside. While she had some medical emergencies early on, now that she is feeling better she is very quickly learning to walk on a leash, follow the command "sit", and respond to her name when called. She is a very smart girl who is starting to show her need for independence and exploration and would love someone who can keep her active and mentally stimulated while also being open to affection and snuggles.
