Story
Meet Maverick! This sweet, cuddly, and playful boy is living his best life in foster with canine siblings and plenty of canine friends. At about 5 years old, this lanky guy still hasn’t quite grown into his long legs and often hops around like a puppy! Maverick’s DNA revealed that he is 50% Treeing Walker Coonhound, and he certainly lives up to his hound heritage. He loves following a trail, tracking interesting scents, and, of course, enjoying food like a true hound! Maverick absolutely LOVES other dogs and would be happiest in a home with other social, dog-friendly pups. He’s also incredibly smart, knows multiple tricks, rides great in the car, and is both house- and crate-trained. If you’re looking for a goofy, affectionate, fun-loving hound who will keep you smiling, Maverick may be your guy! Apply at Realdogrescue.org/adopt

Story
Meet Ottis!  Ottis is a handsome 2 year old, 60 lb red and white coonhound mix ready to find his fur-ever. This sweet boy is house trained, crate trained, and has wonderful manners in the home. He’s calm, affectionate, and loves being close to his people, though an adult only home or with older kids would be best. Ottis is a big fan of car rides, couch snuggles, and cozy evenings at home. He already knows “sit” and “stay,” and he’s eager to please. Like any respectful co-worker, he'll let you work from home without demanding too much attention. At night, he doesn’t even need to be crated — once everyone settles in, Ottis makes his little rounds checking out each open room before curling up in a small pet bed at your feet and sleeping peacefully until morning. He’s the kind of dog who fits naturally into family life and brings a comforting, loving presence wherever he goes. Whether you’re relaxing at home or heading out on an adventure, Ottis will happily be right by your side. To apply to adopt, go to www.peace4paws.org/adoption-application on your laptop or computer. Not able to adopt right now? You can still make a difference in Ottis ’ life! Fostering is another wonderful way to help, or you can donate toward Ottis'  care while he waits for his forever family. Every bit of support helps us give sweet dogs like Ottis  the love and care they deserve. If you have specific adoption or foster questions, please email: judy.atchison@yahoo.com THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN RESCUING A DOG!

Story
Sampson is really smart and a wonderfully affectionate and well behaved dog and being blind will stun you when you watch his behavior and see just how clever he is. He is a fascinating study. Too incredible to even write here as there is so much to tell. He may have been a hunting dog in his youth as he was not neutered and has an amazing nose to go with his hound dog howl. He has excellent hearing, loves the car, dogs who are nice to him and cats. He is housetrained and just a fascinating study in very cool special needs dog behavior. Adoption fee is waived to just the right home. If you note the boxes checked for personality traits you will see how highly we think of Sampson. However, we also know his issues and one is high reactivity to dogs who growl or play growl of when things involving dogs escalates to loud behavior and kinetic energy. Ideally Sampson should be an only dog OR with a dog who would not engage with him. I watch when a dog tries to play with him and it confuses him in his blindness as though he can smell the phenomes he cant judge other signs dogs visually exhibit, he knows that and has built in self protection.Tried to get him into a Scent program at SUNY Cobbleskill but it is too far. The FDA would appreciate him if we had an' in ' there because blind dogs actually can have advanced scent abilities and Sampson does. he is very affectionate and loves to hide toys and engage with humans. He has zero aggression there. He crates and travels beautifully. May have hunted in his early life. He is approx 5 and a beautiful hound.
