Shepherd and Coonhound Dogs Available for Adoption

My name is Gretchen, and yes, you could say I’m so fetchin'. I’ll be 2-years-old in May and I'm ready to graduate from the amazing Pups 4 Parole Training Program now!!! That means it's time for my real, very own, forever home!

This 35-pound Shepherd/Coonhound mix girl rocked the program and I'd love to show off all the things I've learned. I even bow and pray!

I love playing with other dogs and hanging with older, respectful kids (you know, the study kind who love to play). Toys are almost as amazing as I am. Seriously, I love carrying them all around the house and yard. If there’s a toy, I’m either playing with it or napping near it.

I’m bouncy, playful, cuddly, and totally devoted to my humans once I know I can trust them. Our forever family will need a privacy-fenced yard where we can play. . . together. I'm so excited. I can hardly wait!

Of course, my forever family must be willing to continue my training, I sure don't want to forget all I've learned!

Does this all sound wonderful to you? Great! Here's the app to complete so we can meet:
