Hound Dogs Available for Adoption in Rockaway, New Jersey

Libby is a 5-year-old, 40 lb sweetheart who was rescued from Georgia alongside her sister Layla (who is also available for adoption).

Libby is as kind and easygoing as they come. She’s friendly with everyone she meets—people, kids, and other dogs—and has a gentle, loving nature that makes her an easy addition to just about any home. She’s even good with chickens and doesn’t seem to mind cats.

She’s crate trained, house trained, and walks nicely on leash, making her a very easy companion to have around. Libby enjoys being near her people, soaking up affection, and just being part of the family.

Libby is microchipped, spayed, and up to date on vaccines.
