Ginger has arrived in Massachusetts and what a great dog she is! She's very engaging with new people, got settled quickly in her foster home and showed that she is a champion snuggler. She was adopted once from the shelter but her owner ended up in hospice and she was returned - so she's had experience living as a pet. She appears to be housebroken, understands that certain things are not allowed, although she could use some obedience training. Ginger is tentative in new urban situations around traffic and noise - she's clearly been a country girl, although she's gaining confidence. Ginger is about 4 yrs old and is a little underweight from the stress of shelter life at 48 lbs. Her ideal weight is probably around 55 lbs. Ginger is fostering in Rhode Island and is ready for visits.
Ann and Dan are a pair of hounds that were found stray, thin and hungry in rural Tennessee. They were taken in by some good samaritans who are retired and can't keep them, but are fostering them long enough to get them healthy and get their vetting done. Ann and Dan are friendly and very sweet. They crate well and aren't very demanding.. Ann is about 3 and we think Dan is her puppy and about a year old. . They will have ideal weights of about 45 lbs. Ann is the tricolor, Dan is the Black and tan. It would be great if we could place them together, but we would consider placing them separately, once we are sure that they'll do well. Ann is recovering from hip replacement surgery for several months at their foster home near Boston.

Name: Rocky
Gender: Male (Neutered)
Color: Brindle (Brown, gray and white coat)
Breed: Plott Hound
Weight: 85 lbs
Rocky is a loving, smart, loyal and mellow Plott Hound boy who has been through a sad and difficult situation recently with the sudden passing of his loving owner. He is a big boy at around 85 lbs and is about 8 and half years old. He is a healthy boy with a beautiful, short brindle coat! Rocky would love a quieter more peaceful home to spend his days. Rocky would do great with older teenagers and adults but prefers to be the only pet in the household, so no doggie siblings please. At this point, Rocky doesn't get along well with other dogs so he will need consistent support and training in helping him feel more comfortable with his dog peers. Rocky is such a good boy with potty time outside and (when not in a fenced yard) does well on a lead line. Some of Rocky's favorite things include walks, meeting new people (Rocky LOVES people), cuddling with his people, being a good listener and hanging out, snuggling up on his favorite recliner, roaming around freely in a fenced yard, and leaning on his people for love, rubs and scritches. Rocky is the sweetest hound boy you could ever meet and can't wait to cuddle with you to his hearts content. Rocky is currently located in Southern New Hampshire and is available for visits. If interested, contact Jen at jmol3125@gmail.com or cell: (603)-566-8500
This big ol' goof is Humphrey! He was rescued from an overcrowded shelter in Kentucky and this southern lug has been adjusting to the busy streets of NYC. Humphrey is a pretty big boy - he's around 70lbs! But he's a big doofus who just seems happy to be here. He's a fun-loving dog who may be a little distracted at times, but he's trying his best! Humphrey is learning his basics during his time here at Animal Haven, but his adopters will have to continue putting in work with basic training to make sure he's the best boy he can be! Although Humphrey has been getting used to the city, somewhere out of Manhattan or in a quieter neighborhood would likely be best for him. He's overall great with other dogs, but he's not a fan of cats. Contact Animal Haven for more information on Humphrey!
Humphrey is at Animal Haven in New York, NY

Gracie is a very gentle, quiet and beautiful Blue-Tick hound girl that is ready to meet you. Gracie has lived with a wonderful and loving family for over three years. She was originally brought in as a foster but then quickly became a part of the family. Due to some significant life changes, the very caring family has decided to find Gracie a home where she can continue to live a happy and active life. Gracie is about 7 years old and 45 lbs. She is a healthy, active girl that loves walks and play time. Gracie might be shy when meeting new people but warms up quickly. Gracie currently enjoys a fenced in yard but can also walk on a leash. She has never been crated while with her current family. Like most hounds (if not all) she loves mealtime and will become a bit more active when it's time to eat. Sadly, Gracie was once a mistreated hunting dog and might be startled by loud sounds so a quieter home would bring her the most ease. A military veteran or someone that understands PTSD would be a great match for Gracie although she would fit into any home that shows her love, guidance and reassurance. Gracie adores her two dog siblings and even shares her bed with them when she wants to cuddle. Gracie is also very sweet and patient. She has experience living with other rescued dogs and has had wonderful experiences with all of them. Gracie would also be good with children, but has never been observed with cats. Gracie is a docile soul that wants to be your soft place to land and snuggle with on the couch. Can you offer her that comfy spot?
Gracie is located in Burlington, Vermont and available for visits. If interested in meeting Gracie please contact Lea at leaterhune44@gmail.com.

Introducing Tracker the sweet and silly boy! Tracker is a beautiful Red-tick/Blue-tick mixed hound boy that wants to meet you. Tracker currently lives with a family that originally planned to keep him as a foster so they are seeking the perfect forever home for him to thrive in. Tracker is 2 years old, weighs around 49 lbs and is active. He would do well in home with kids and dogs but likes chasing cats too much to live with them so no felines. Tracker is a smart pup and understands commands such as: "come here", "off", "out", "leave it", and "kennel" but may need some reminders to follow through. Tracker needs some leash training as he pulls hard but a gentle leader or easy walk harness would really help with his leash skills. Tracker's potty etiquette is excellent as he will scratch at the door when he wants out. Tracker is crate trained and can stay in his crate for up to about 4 hours at a time. Tracker needs a yard with a 6 ft fence because (as his name avows) he likes to explore. Tracker would make a wonderful addition to a home where he can play part of the day and then crash on the couch with his people. Tracker is available for visits in rural Maine but the current family is happy to meet somewhere more convenient for prospective adopters. Please contact Morgan Rolfe for more information on this amazing dog at rolfe.morgan@gmail.com or phone: 207-263-6152
Hank and Loretta
Age: 7 years (siblings)
Breed: Bluetick Coonhound
Male and Female: Spayed and neutered
Meet this cute pair of Bluetick hounds! Hank and Loretta are a sweet brother and sister pair that would love a big fenced yard to run around in. They do great with kids but have not spent much time with cats and dogs so that is unknown. Slow introductions with other pets would be key to ensure a good match. Hank and Loretta are very friendly and happy to snuggle on the couch with their people. These two know commands come, sit and stay and would make great hound companions. These two healthy hounds LOVE walks and both do well on a leash (so maybe a double leash for the two of them would be ideal) and they are crate trained. They would ideally be adopted together since they are close siblings. These two are available for visits in Windham, CT. Please contact Justin Baker phone: 860-942-2632 or email at j.bakerrepair@yahoo.com

Meet Buck! A cute and lovable hound puppy that can't wait to play with you! Buck's family is looking for the very best home for Buck where he can get more time with his humans and a chance to explore his world with them. Buck had his DNA test to see what his mix is. He is 59 percent Bluetick Coonhound with some Foxhound, Treeing walker, Beagle and Plott hound mixed in. He is 100 percent Good dog! Buck is a very friendly boy that LOVES to play and go for walks. Buck knows basic commands with hand signals and is willing to learn more. Like most hounds, Buck would do best in a secure, fenced yard for his safety since he likes to follow his nose and explore. Buck is crate trained but doesn't really like it so very limited time in a sturdy crate with lots of positive reinforcement would be needed to encourage him to be more comfortable with crate time. Buck is good with kids and other dogs as he currently lives with kids and another older dog. Buck would make an amazing and fun addition to your family. He can't wait to follow his nose to you! Buck is located in New Jersey and available for visits. Contact Erin and Ron Burkhardt at eburkhardt06@verizon.net or call (732) 947-6005 or (732) 947-6006 NOTE: (we ask that you please text first to confirm inquiry about Buck).

Introducing Max! Just look at those puppy dog eyes! You're going to want to meet this 4 year old beautiful and friendly hound boy! Max is looking for a new home where he can play freely in a large, fenced yard. Since Max likes to explore and challenges containment, he needs a secure, tall fence to keep him safe and needs to be leashed with a harness while on walks. Max would do best with a family that can spend lots of time with him, play in the yard and go for walks. Max is great with kids and other dogs. He's also very gentle with young kids and babies. He is a very social boy and has spent time with different people and dogs in doggie daycare. Max understands commands such as sit, down and paw. Max will come to you especially with food in hand since he, like many hounds, is very food motivated which makes him extra trainable :-) Max is leash trained but since he follows his nose tends to pull so he would need consistency in leash etiquette and a "no pull' style leash. Max needs to keep busy and is very fast on his feet. Max needs lots of doggie activities to keep him stimulated and happy. Max is crate trained but prefers to be free to run around a secure yard. Max will make an amazing addition to an active family that can play with him and keep him company at home. Max is available for visits in Phillipsburg/Lopatcong New Jersey. Contact Laura Gryzlo for more information. Call or text (908) 337-1231 or email at lstupi85@gmail.com

Meet Phillip! He is a beautiful large boy that will win your heart as soon as you see his face. Phillip is too strong for his current, senior owners and they want him to receive the care he needs. Phillip is a sweet boy but prefers female dogs or submissive males, indoor cats are ok and even though he hasn’t been around kids, his owners suspect he would do well with older/respectful children. Phillip is crate trained (but doesn't spend much time crated) and walks well on a leash. When it comes to meeting new people he might be shy at first but once he warms up he will love you forever. Phillip will be cautious when meeting new people or animals so he likes slower introductions to become more comfortable. Phillip can't wait to show you his skills with commands such as come, sit, stay/wait, down and bed. Phillip would be very happy with a fenced yard where he can run free as he has lived on a farm. He also does very well inside the home environment where he can cuddle with his people. He is a big lovable boy that would make a great addition to a family or person seeking a sweet and loyal buddy. Phillip is available for visits in Southeastern CT contact Lindsay at 860-235-6523 or lindsayashafer@gmail.com or olivershouserescue@gmail.com

Breed: Black and Tan Coonhound
Gender: Female spayed
Molly is a sweet and engaging Black and Tan Coonhound who really needs a break. She has been passed around through several homes and most recently was found abandoned at a state park in central Massachusetts. Her history became apparent after the people who dropped her off were located. She's in the care of the local Animal Control Officer and this is a courtesy posting. Molly makes friends with people easily; she's outgoing, affectionate and loving. She's pretty calm, housebroken and crates well. Like all hounds, she likes some time outside for tracking and exploring. She behaved well at the vet and has shown no aggression around food. In a home environment, she may not do well with other resident dogs. Molly has been through a lot in the last 6 months. It is not unusual for rescue dogs with this history to be anxious and stressed in yet another new place. Molly needs an experienced dog owner and Hound experience would be a plus. She needs structure and patience, time to build trust and confidence, and a gentle and slow introduction to other animals, children and visitors. She may bond strongly to her primary caregiver in a new home environment but this is easily mitigated by involving everyone, including frequent visitors, in her care and feeding. Molly has a great personality and will be a fun and loving hound companion in the right home. Please contact necoonhoundrescue@gmail.com
