I am a 9 year old hound dog looking for a new home. Don't let my age fool you, I still have tons of energy and love attention from everyone!
I love long walks where I can smell lots of new smells, and I will always fetch a ball or stick! I am a smart girl who is good at solving doggy puzzles. I love a good ear scritch and kind of treat I can chew on! You should see me play tug of war!
All of my vaccines (including rabies) are up to date. I'm a very healthy dog and would make a great companion for anyone.
I currently live in Arlington Heights, IL and my owner is willing to travel a little bit.
