Story

Before her rescue, Ripley was a devoted mom to a litter of puppies. Now, it’s finally her turn to be pampered and spoiled. She loves people and greets everyone with tail wags and enthusiasm—sometimes a little too much excitement, but with some gentle reminders, she’s quick to learn. Ripley is a spirited, high-energy 4-year-old who’s ready to find a forever home that matches her zest for life! This athletic girl lives for movement—she loves to run, play, and will gleefully destroy any toy that crosses her path. She’s fantastic with other dogs and adores children, making her a great match for an active family with kids or playful pups. Ripley thrives in a home that’s always on the go—whether it’s hikes, runs, or backyard zoomies, she’s all in. A quiet, laid-back lifestyle just isn’t her thing; she’s looking for a household that’s as energetic as she is. Ripley is crate trained, housebroken, and knows basic commands like “sit.” She’s also super smart and very treat-motivated, so training is a breeze with the right snacks and consistency. Important note: Ripley cannot be in a home with cats or small animals. She has a strong prey drive and takes her “squirrel patrol” duties very seriously—your yard will be rodent-free! If your home is filled with energy, love, and adventure, Ripley just might be your perfect match. Ready to make her part of your pack? ##2223382##

Kiara

Coonhound

Sheffield Lake, OH

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

🐾 Meet Kiara! 🐾 Kiara is a sweet, smart, loving, playful 1.5-year-old female coonhound (birthday Nov. 9). She is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. Kiara loves toys, playing outside, and running around. As a hunting dog, she has a strong prey drive and loves to chase animals, so she would do best in a home without cats. She has never hurt our cats, but she does chase them. She has been boarded and gets along great with other dogs. Kiara is crate trained during the day but loves sleeping with her people at night. She is nervous around fireworks and isn't a fan of car rides. Due to changes in our schedule, we’re looking for a home where Kiara can spend less time in her crate and have plenty of room and time to exercise. Someone familiar with hounds or hunting dogs would be ideal. Our priority is finding Kiara a loving, active forever home where she can thrive. ❤️🐶
