Meet Riggs!

Riggs spent several days roaming the streets and hanging out in our small-town grocery store parking lot before Animal Control brought him to safety. Now this affectionate 6-month-old is ready to find a family of his own.

He loves people, gets along with other dogs, and thinks toys are great fun. Riggs has also met some kittens and was gentle with them during their introduction. He’s a sweet, playful young pup who’s ready for a fresh start and lots of love.

We encourage adopters to read profiles fully and reach out with any questions; we are always happy to help. Inquiries through the site are not consistently coming through. If you send an inquiry and we do not answer the same day, we didn't get it. You can use our direct email at atasnp@gmail.com or text/call 469-241-0000.

Medical & Spay/Neuter Information:
Most puppies travel with two rounds of vaccines, and sometimes three. Occasionally, we may not have had a puppy long enough for a second round.

Puppies under 6 months of age are not spayed or neutered. Spaying or neutering is a required condition of adoption and must be completed by the puppy's first birthday or by your veterinarian's recommendation, at the adopter's expense. Out-of-state surgery costs are not included in the adoption fee.

Breed Disclaimer:
Breed is our best estimate based on the puppy's appearance and, when known, the mother's appearance. Fathers are rarely known, and litters can have multiple fathers, meaning puppies may be half-siblings with different breed mixes.

The Coonhound is a versatile and athletic breed known for its exceptional hunting abilities and loyalty. With a strong sense of smell and impressive tracking skills, Coonhounds are often used for hunting raccoons and other game. This breed is friendly, outgoing, and makes a devoted companion for an active family. Coonhounds come in different varieties, including the Black and Tan Coonhound, Redbone Coonhound, and Treeing Walker Coonhound, each with its own unique characteristics and qualities.

The Plott Hound, known for its striking brindle coat, is a devoted and fearless hunting dog with a rich history. Originating in North Carolina, this breed excels in tracking and treeing game, particularly wild boar and bears. The Plott Hound is renowned for its stamina, intelligence, and independence, making it an ideal companion for active individuals or families looking for a loyal and hardworking canine partner in a variety of outdoor activities.
