Hound Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Kayla

At just 8 months old and 35 pounds, this hound-ish mix is a total sweetheart who’s learning the world at her own pace. Kayla is on the shy side at first, but once she feels safe and comfortable, her soft, affectionate personality shines right through.

Kayla absolutely thrives with another confident dog by her side — they help her feel secure and show her the ropes. That said, she’s adaptable and could settle in as an only dog with a patient adopter willing to give her the consistency, reassurance, and gentle structure she needs.

Once she warms up, Kayla becomes a loyal little shadow who wants to understand her people and make them proud. She’s smart, observant, and quietly motivated, taking cues from both humans and other dogs beautifully.

If you’re looking for a tender-hearted companion who will blossom with love and stability, Kayla might be the one who steals your heart next.
