MORT - RHODESIAN RIDGEBACK / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Rhodesian Ridgeback / Mixed (short coat). #A5751958 Mort is a 2-year-old male Rhodesian Ridgeback mix, possibly hound mix, with a brown and black coat, big floppy ears, and the sweetest, soulful face. Found as a stray on January 25, 2026, alongside Palmer A5751957 , Mort weighs 93 lbs but is very underweight for his breed and will need time, good nutrition, and care to reach a healthy weight. Mort is a big boy with even bigger paws and a gentle presence. Though the shelter has been overwhelming, his soft expression and calm demeanor suggest a kind, affectionate dog underneath it all. He’ll need patience as he settles in and regains strength. Mort is adoptable on a $50 trust waiver so his new family can continue his care and help him fully recover. With stability and love, this gentle giant has all the makings of a loyal, devoted companion. -2 years old, male, 93 lbs (underweight for breed) -Rhodesian Ridgeback mix / possible hound mix -Found as a stray on 01/25/2026 (came in with Palmer A5751957 ) -Big frame, big paws, big floppy ears -Very underweight; needs to gain healthy weight -Gentle, sweet-faced boy -Adoptable on a $50 trust waiver -Would thrive in a patient, nurturing home MORT’S VIDEO: youtube/shorts/jDcTxjoio_g For more information, contact volunteer Lor at lorunitedhopeforanimals ------- United Hope for Animals (UHA) is a volunteer group and does not have a facility for animals.
