Coonhound Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Maxine! She’s a 7yo coonhound whose humans had to lovingly surrender her when their mom entered hospice care and their father could no longer give them the time and attention they deserved. This girl is equal parts energetic and laid back and would make a great addition to any family.

Maxine is a sweet, playful girl who wants nothing more than love and affection. She loves bones, toys, and loves even more to tear them apart. She walks well on a leash and has improved quite a bit with pulling. Maxine gets along with other friendly dogs and seems indifferent with cats. She is a little nervous in new situations but warms up with reassurance. Maxine is very food motivated and needs to be supervised to prevent counter surfing but respects gates and responds to correction.

She has a littermate sister named Mavis who came to the rescue with her. Ideally, we would like for them to be adopted together, as they are littermates and have spent their lives as companions, but it’s not entirely necessary.

These two are crate trained, spayed, up to date on vaccines and ready for their new beginning. They are well behaved and understand basic commands. 

If this girl tugs at your heart strings, please fill out an adoption questionnaire at AllHoundRescue.org/adopt
