Just stare into my big, beautiful BABY BLUE EYES, I will MESMERIZE YOU!

Story
Henrietta, meaning “Ruler of the Home”, is way ToOoOoO formal. I’m more of a ….. Hennie (nickname) kind of gal.  At about 60# and just 1 1/2 year old, I’m a FUN LOVING, “Kick up Your Heels” Bluetick Hound Girl that loves People, Kids, other Dogs and Even Cats! WOW, yep. I’m just looking for a Good Time. One of “14” pups ready to “Pop Out” into the world when mom found herself stuck in a shelter. Lucky for us all, mom was pulled to safety by Molly’s Place Rescue in the nick of time. My sister Halle and I are the “2” lone pups still on the hunt for that special home! Yep, Saved the BEST for Last! With “Floppy Hound Ears”, an occasional Bay to make you smile, I’m an even tempered, all people friendly, tail wagging, eager to please and goofy. Not just a GOOD LOOKING HOUND with my blue ticking coloration, I also have intelligence and a keen nose that leads the brain in different directions. So, a 4 foot fence suits me best to remain safe. Still needing some basic training, my brain will come in handy once given experiences and direction. Did you note the picture of 2 “goofy Gals” peering over the fence? I’m the one on the Left! Oh, the world is SO, SOO big yet I’m ready to take it on with your help, patients and training. Come and explore the options, meet me and fall in love. I’m Hennie/Henrietta, a gal that will fill your life with love, affection and my own zest for life! To submit an adoption application, visit mollysplacerescue.org.

Story
Hey all,  I’m Nova, a 1 1/2 year gal, currently weighing in at approximately 55 lbs. with soft tan/yellow highlighting a white fluffy coat. My Mom “Luna” and other siblings were surrendered to a shelter.  Shelter life is loud and crazy. Thankfully, Molly’s Place became our savior and took us in! My mom Luna, was a good looking white Shepherd. Like my mom, I also am a flashy looker, but my eyes are dark brown giving me a soft angelical look with my lighter coat. Maybe like my dad who they think was a Lab, who knows. But I’ve inherited the BEST OF BOTH! I’m very docile, showing signs of intelligence already, yet fun loving and goofy. Being good with dogs, kids and adults. My zest for life is shown as I dearly enjoy toys, playing with a pack, or just chilling out and giving/receiving love from my person. I’ve got the all the ingrediencies to be YOUR NEXT SUPER FAMILY PET! Yep, I’m eager to please and even tempered. Daily activity is good for all us 4-leggeds. I do have some training needs, but being part Shepherd, I know together we can tackle anything. Be it a few good walks, playing ball, frisbee or taking a ride, physical and mental stimulation will only help me bond with you and learn about life. I’m a true, down to earth, loving girl that just wants to have a “Normal Good Time” with my family. How about it? Are you Game???? I’m Nova and I want to be your “Inseparable Companion” by your side!  To submit an adoption application, visit mollysplacerescue.org.
