My personality

My story

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

💖 Meet Lydia: Ready for Her Quiet, Devoted Forever Home

Lydia is a stunning 3-year-old Treeing Walker Coonhound mix with a heart shaped by resilience and a deep capacity for love. Found abandoned in a Florida dumpster with her brother, Lydia has spent far too long moving from one temporary situation to another. Now, she’s truly ready for what she’s always deserved—a stable, loving home where she can finally exhale and feel safe.

Lydia thrives in a calm, secure environment and is looking for a patient, experienced adopter who understands that trust takes time. She may be a bit shy at first, but once she warms up, she blossoms into a deeply loyal and devoted companion. The bond she forms is special—quiet, steady, and incredibly rewarding.

Currently, Lydia is participating in training, and she is absolutely shining. Her trainers are continually impressed by her intelligence and growing confidence. She’s learning valuable life skills, walking nicely on a loose leash, staying focused on her handler even around distractions, and excelling on field trips. With each session, her confidence continues to grow—she’s truly one smart cookie!

Lydia is ready to prove that the dogs who’ve been through the most often love the hardest. Give this deserving hound the chance she’s been waiting for, and you’ll gain a loyal best friend for life. 🐾💖

More about this shelter

At Darbster Rescue, our goal is to place kittens, cats, and dogs with great, forever homes in New England. The pets are primarily from South Florida and other southern states where the euthanasia rates are very high. Our shelters are in New Hampshire which has a strong demand for pets relative to supply and where shelters like ours are strictly no kill operations. Our animals will go to their new homes spayed or neutered, UTD on shots and a clean bill of health from FL and NH. We are here to help everyone look for the perfect match for themselves and their family.
