Trudy's Story

Trudy is a beautiful redtick coonhound who was rescued several months ago from life on a chain in West Virginia. Her Massachusetts fosters report that Trudy is an absolute joy. She is very well behaved. She does not counter surf and is not a big jumper and would probably do well with children. She is not a huge fan of the cold and snow, however she has discovered some holes in the snow in the backyard where animals have burrowed and enjoys rooting them out! She was totally housebroken before the snow arrived, but now needs some coaxing to stay outside, but she's getting used to it. Trudy has not had a lot of interaction with other dogs but she will stand up for herself if another dog is overly dominant. She would be fine as an only dog or with a more submissive independent dog. She is not very interested in playing with other dogs. Trudy really likes to be with her people and is most content when she is with - or can at least see her fosters. She loves to cuddle on the sofa and is a great companion with many good points. She's not a big barker/bayer; she doesn't bother the family at mealtime; she's getting used to her crate and will sometimes go in on her own to chew on a toy or have some quiet time. She sleeps quietly through the night on her own bed near the family. She doesn't mind the car and settles down for longer drives. Trudy would be happiest in a home where someone is there a lot. She is an amazing girl and would make someone individually, a couple with no children, or a family very, very happy. Trudy is 4 - 5 yrs old and weighs 57 lbs. Trudy is available for visits north of Boston.<br/><br/>If you’d like to apply to adopt, please submit an application using the link below. <br/>Application link (please copy and paste into your browser's address bar) <br/>https://ws.ishelters.com/application.php?k=coonhOUnd&t=Coonhound%20Adoption <br/> <br/>About our rescue <br/>We are a foster based rescue.

Our Mission
Coonhounds and beagles are abandoned in shelters because in many parts of the country they have very little value as pets. They are often kept outside in pens and sometimes do not even have names.
