My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

ADOPTED!
SKYLER*
#469-16
Female Coonhound Mix Breed
Date in: 11/12/16

Hey there...I'm Skyler! Yep, you guessed it, I'm a coonhound and I'm a big, beautiful one too! The Muskingum County Dog Warden & Adoption Center became my home because my humans were not taking care of me and my many housemates. See my ribs? I could stand to gain a good bit of weight and then I know I would be absolutely stunning! Like most other hounds, when I'm outside on a walk I go into hunting mode...that means my nose is pressed so hard into the ground that it disappears and I zig zag all over the place tracking whatever it is I can find! Does that make it sound like I'm a puller on a leash? Well, yep, that's what I am!!! Like I mentioned before, I had a lot of other housemates so I didn't get a whole bunch of personal attention. It's going to take me a little bit of time to learn what being loved and cared for really means, but I can't wait!

Adoption fee is $105 which includes spay/neuter, combo and rabies shots, Bordetella vaccine, heartworm test and dog tags. (Although some of the dogs come to the pound spayed or neutered, most do not. If you adopt a dog that has not yet been spayed/neutered, we will set up an appointment for the dog to be spayed/neutered before it can leave the facility.)
