Sophia (Peg-Fostered in TN) Treeing Walker Coonhound & Hound Mix Brooklyn, CT

Meet Sophia!

Sophia is a white Hound/Pointer mix. She is a 1 & 1/2 years old and weighs 50 pounds as of 3/27/25. She was found as a stray with her sister Mia. The pups were dumped in a wooded rural area near the Memphis TN area. Good Samaritans have been taking care of the two pups but now it is time for them to find permanent homes. Her hair is super soft hair and she is genuinely beautiful girl. She loves to play and roll around with her fellow canines. She is good with other dogs and cats.

A genuinely beautiful hound dog with that recognizable, deep, musical hound bark & howl. She loves to play and roll around with her fellow canines. She's very shy at first, but very gentle and warms up to people & animals who aren't perceived as a threat. She waits for Mia to make the first move. She now initiates attention, especially right out of the kennel in the morning. She is vocal when in the kennel too long (her opinion) or spots something on the outside of the fenced yard. She is a huntress and will give chase. She's teachable. She's young. She needs lots of training and plenty of toys to occupy that active mind & spurts of energy. She's not hyper, but still puppy-ish and quite playful. She is "hound" so settles rather quickly...not lazy yet, like hounds tend to become, but quiet through the night and most of the day.

Sophia is currently in TN but will be transported north to New England for adoption. The adoption donation is $400 which includes a health certificate and costs for the transport north.

*Unless stated otherwise, all dogs will be spayed or neutered, on flea/tick product and heartworm prevention medicine (if older than 5 months) and micro chipped prior to adoption.

*Please note that while we do our best to accurately state the breed or breed mix of a dog, we often have very limited information to draw from. Identifying the breed without pedigrees and information on heritage can be very challenging!
