My story

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

Isabel is 7 year old, 64 pound Foxhound. Isabel is a sweet girl who loves attention and snuggles with her humans.

Because Isabel was microchipped we know more about her than we do most rescue dogs. She was born 11/6/16 and was adopted as a puppy from a rescue in Merrifield, Virginia. In 2023 she ended up at the Prince William County Shelter in Manassas, Virginia. A man adopted her in July of 2023 and was living in a travel trailer. He was in an RV park in Bethany, Missouri and his family called in a welfare check on him because they had not heard from him for a few days. When the police found Isabel’s owner he had been deceased for several days and she was in the trailer with no heat and temps well below zero. The man’s family immediately released her to our rescue and we drove to get her to safety.

Isabel has clearly had some training in the past because she knows how to sit, lay down, and shake. She has great house manners and doesn’t need a kennel. The one skill she doesn’t seem to have mastered is leash training. She is a strong girl and she will pull when on a leash. She gets easily distracted by other people and dogs when on a walk which makes walks more challenging. She needs continued training and an adopter willing to work with her. She needs a physically fenced yard so she can play safely and continue her training.

Isabel is very treat motivated which helps with training. She also enjoys chewing on Benebones or Nylabones. She wants to be near her people and likes cuddles. Isabel doesn’t have any concept of her size and will try to crawl into your lap. At night she will sleep in a dog bed next to her people but she would probably be happier sleeping on the bed with her people.

Isabel is house trained, spayed, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm tested, and microchipped.
