Sophie's story...

Courtesy Posting: Sophie is available for adoption through Grand River All-Breed Animal Rescue.  If you are interested in her, please visit their website: www.grandriverallbreedrescue.ca or call 519-650-9228 or email at GrandRiverRescue@hotmail.com
Sophie is an adorable Redtick Coonhound who came from an overcrowded shelter where she was slated to be euthanized.  Sophie is approximately 2 years old and weighs 50 lbs.

Sophie is a very loving and sweet girl who craves human companionship and affection.  Her prior life may not have exposed her to many things, so she is getting used to being a companion dog and is shy and timid with most new situations, but she is extremely eager-to-please and wanting to be part of a family.  Poor Sophie has been moved several times in a very short period of time and hasn’t had the opportunity to adjust to a real home, her new forever home will need to patient and committed until Sophie can feel comfortable that she is not going to be moved again. She gets along well all dogs and cats. She is very sweet with people and gives kisses and nudges for attention.  She is a gentle and kind soul who will blossom into a wonderful family member!  Sophie is housetrained and crate trained.  Her crate is her comfort place and she will need one in her new home.    She is a smart girl and learned sit and lie down in a week.    Sophie loves walks and playing fetch and needs an owner who will be committed to daily exercise to tire her out and help her relax.

About Our Rescue Group...
Canadian Hound Rescue is dedicated to promoting responsible hound ownership. Many of the hounds that end up in shelters or rescue are abandoned hunting dogs that were previously tied to a doghouse outside for most of the year, only to be let loose during hunting season. We believe that no hound should have to suffer such a fate, and will place hounds as indoor pets only. Since many of our hounds have never lived in a house before, all dogs are initially placed in foster homes where they are housetrained and learn basic house manners. While in foster care our hounds are also spayed or neutered, brought up to date on vaccinations, and provided with any necessary medical care. Finally, their temperament and personality are evaluated so that we can find the best possible match between each individual hound and its adoptive home.

Come Meet Our Pets...
If you would like to meet one of our hounds please contact us as they are located in foster homes throughout Ontario. We always need more foster homes. Fostering is essential to Canadian Hound Rescue in saving hounds and keeping our rescue going. The more homes we have, the more dogs we can save.
Our Adoption Process...
All adoptive homes are required to go through a screening process that includes a telephone interview, filling out an application, reference checks and a home visit. An adoption fee is required to offset some of the costs incurred in caring for and re-homing each hound. Canadian Hound Rescue remains committed to each animal for the rest of its life and if, at any time and for any reason, the adoption does not work out, we require that the hound be returned to us.
We Serve the Following Cities, Towns, and/or Counties...
Canadian Hound Rescue is a small, not-for-profit organization of volunteers dedicated to helping homeless and abandoned hounds find loving and permanent homes as indoor pets. We mainly operate in Ontario, but have volunteers in other provinces as well. We rescue all breeds of coonhounds including the Black and Tan, Bluetick, Redbone, English, Plott Hound, and Treeing Walker Coonhounds. We also rescue Bloodhounds and hound mixes.
