This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped.
Letty is a one‑year‑old, 22‑lb beagle mix with the softest eyes and the sweetest nature. She’s an affectionate, cuddly little girl who loves curling up with her people and soaking in quiet companionship. Outside, she blossoms — exploring confidently, trotting happily, and relaxing in the fresh air like it’s her comfort zone. Indoors, she can be a little nervous in a new space, but she warms up beautifully with patience and reassurance, and she’s already showing how resilient and eager‑to‑bond she is. Letty is calm, quiet, and maybe even soulful, with a soft, thoughtful presence that makes her incredibly endearing.
Letty comes from a hoarding situation in Oklahoma, where she was kept in large outdoor kennels with many other dogs, which explains why outdoor spaces feel familiar and safe to her. Despite her challenging first year of life, she has held onto her loving, trusting heart — she leans into affection, watches other dogs play with interest, and is already learning how good life can be inside a home.
She’s doing well with housetraining, stays cool and calm in her crate for hours at a time, rides calmly in the car when either loose or crated, and enjoys cuddling and quiet time. Letty will thrive with a gentle, patient family who understands that new indoor environments can feel overwhelming at first — and who will celebrate every small moment of progress as she settles in and discovers comfort, routine, and love. Access to a fenced-in outdoor area would help her transition along too. Come say hi to Letty!
Note: Caregivers of dogs from hoarding situations should be prepared for quirks as well as fear of normal household things/life, people, and excursions. Adopters of dogs like these need to be looking to adopt to help the dog, not so much to get a pet for themselves with specific expectations of the pet. While dogs from hoarding situations can make great pets, they need a home and lifestyle that is gentle, accommodating and will be forgiving as their needs and personalities unfold.

An adoption donation is required for each adoption; please see HERE for more information about this.
