Introducing Apple: A Sweet and Shy Hound Cross Looking for a Patient Forever Home
Meet Apple, a 2-year-old hound mix with a gentle and timid nature who’s ready to find a family that can give her the time and love she deserves. Apple is a shy girl at first, but once she feels safe and comfortable, her sweet and affectionate side shines through. She’s looking for a patient and understanding family who will help her build confidence and give her the space she needs to blossom.
As with many hounds, Apple has a high prey drive, so she’s not suitable for homes with cats or small animals. She’ll also do best in a home with older children or adults who can respect her gentle temperament. With the right family, Apple will become a loyal and loving companion.
Training & Behavior Needs:
Apple is still learning how to navigate the world, and basic training will be important to help her feel more secure and well-mannered. She’s a quick learner and just needs someone who can provide consistent, positive guidance.
Timid Nature: Apple can be shy and reserved around new people and in new situations, but she’s incredibly sweet once she feels comfortable. She will need a patient and quiet home where she can gradually build trust and gain confidence. High Prey Drive: As a hound mix, Apple has a strong prey drive. She may be inclined to chase small animals, so she’ll need a home without cats, small pets, or young children who may trigger her instinct to chase. Basic Training: Apple would benefit from some basic training to help her build better leash manners, improve her confidence, and learn some essential commands. She’s a smart dog, and with time and positive reinforcement, she will thrive. Socialization with Other Dogs: Apple is currently housed with Android, another dog, and while they’re not closely bonded, they do seem to get along well and enjoy each other’s company. A meet-and-greet with any other dogs in the home would be required to ensure compatibility. Why Apple?
Apple is the perfect companion for someone who has the time and patience to work with a sweet, timid dog and help her come out of her shell. Once she feels safe and secure, she will reward you with loyalty and affection. With continued training and socialization, Apple will make an amazing, loving pet who will be grateful for the support and care she receives.

We require potential adopters to fill out an pre-adoption application. If that application is approved, the dog/cat must be spayed/neutered before it leaves our shelter (if not already done). If it is a puppy under 4 months old, we allow it to go home with the adopters under a foster care agreement until it is old enough to be returned for spay/neuter. Kittens are allowed to leave before spay/neuter is done, but they must be done within a certain time frame.
Fees: Dogs/puppies range from $150-300, depending on if they came in already spayed/neutered or if we paid to have that done.
Cats range from $80 - $140, though we often have deals on older cats or cats that have been there a long time.
Kittens are $60 with $25 refunded once it has been spayed/neutered.
All adoptions include at least the first vaccination, deworming, de-fleaing, microchip ID, and 6 weeks of pet insurance.
