My story

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

Meet Vanessa! This precious 6 month old brindle beauty is ready to bust out of the shelter and land the forever home of her dreams! Vanessa is an outgoing and sweet plott hound mix who is a bundle of energy and joy. She's not just a looker, Vanessa's got brains too—she's already mastered the art of sitting for treats. When she's not busy playing, this smart pup turns into a cuddlebug, ready to shower you with affection. Adopting a puppy like Vanessa is like gaining a forever friend, but it's also a commitment that comes with a lot of tail-wagging responsibilities. Are you up for the challenge? If you're ready to embrace the playful chaos, the sweet snuggles, and the rewarding journey of raising a pup, come meet Vanessa today! She's eager to find her forever home, and she promises a lifetime of love, laughs, and a little bit of puppy mischief.

By adopting me today you will save the life of two pets -- you'll save me and that will make room for the Shelter to rescue and save another pet.
