This handsome boy has been Shandy is a 3-month-old red tick coonhound mix (also known as an American English Coonhound) and she’s everything you could hope for in a puppy—wrinkly, chubby, playful, smart, loyal, and incredibly lovable. Raised in foster care from birth, Shandy has had a wonderful foundation and plenty of early socialization.<br/><br/>She was born on October 19, 2025, to Mama Rosie in St. Charles as one of 11 puppies. Shandy currently weighs about 22–26 pounds and is expected to grow into a 55–70 lb adult, making her a great medium-to-large companion.<br/><br/>Shandy loves to explore, play, and take in everything around her, but when she’s ready to rest, she turns into a total snuggle bug. She enjoys basking in the sunshine, relaxing with her people, and curling up to watch TV after a day of fun.<br/><br/>This bright girl is already crate trained and especially loves sleeping in her crate. She’s also 100% potty trained and will ring a bell when it’s time to go outside—an impressive skill for such a young pup! Shandy is very smart and understands several basic commands using both verbal cues and hand signals, including sit, shake, speak, and spin.<br/><br/>Shandy is up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and once she’s old enough, spaying will be coordinated and paid for by Starfish. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and cats and would thrive in a home ready to continue her training, adventures, and cuddle sessions.<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting/meeting this pup , please complete our online adoption application that you can find here: https://www.starfishanimalrescue.com/adopt/dog-adoption-application .
