Description
Dog Breed: Treeing Walker Coonhound (short coat). Please note that PAHS does NOT do online adoption applications. You must come to the shelter in person to meet the PAHS pets. Ruby is a 5-year-old female Treeing Walker Coonhound who must be spayed before adoption. She was surrendered by her owner, who could no longer care for her. Ruby has the classic tricolor coat of a TWC—white, black, and brown—and weighs 46 pounds, making her a large dog. She is naturally shy and calm, but once she realizes you are trustworthy, she becomes affectionate, confident, and a velcro companion who loves to be near you. Ruby will quickly bond with a caring owner and form a strong attachment to her new family. She is scent-driven and will require regular exercise, and she is good with children and other dogs. If you are looking for a loving, active, and intelligent dog that thrives on companionship and outdoor activities, Ruby would be an excellent fit. She will flourish in a home with an active owner who can provide both exercise and training, and she is sure to become a devoted family companion when given the right care and environment. Dog/puppy adoption fees are $120. Cat/kitten adoption fees are $75. All pets will be spayed/neutered before adoption; or you will be given a discount spay/neuter certificate to be used at participating vet clinics to help with the cost of spay/neuter. Our adoption fees cover a microchip, microchip registration, deworming, vaccinations (as age and law requires), and a courtesy vet exam at participating offices. Unless otherwise indicated under "special needs" our dogs have screened heart worm negative. *****Please note that PAHS does NOT do online adoption applications.

Overview:
The Treeing Walker Coonhound, a breed originating in the American South, was meticulously developed for its exceptional ability to track and "tree" raccoons and other small game. Physically, they are athletic and elegant, showcasing a smooth, short coat typically in tri-color (black, white, and tan) or bi-color patterns, along with a distinctive long tail and expressive, often pleading, brown eyes. Weighing between 50-70 pounds, their lean musculature allows for impressive endurance. Temperamentally, they are known for being intelligent, friendly, and affectionate, making them wonderful companions. However, their strong prey drive and high energy levels mean they thrive in active homes with securely fenced yards; apartment living is generally not recommended due to their need for extensive exercise and a tendency to bay. While generally a healthy breed, potential owners should be aware of possible issues like hip and elbow dysplasia, as well as bloat. Their loving nature makes them suitable for active families willing to provide ample physical and mental stimulation.
