Annie

She’s a sweet, easygoing 50-pound hound mix with the kind of charm that makes people fall in love fast. Like most good dogs, she’s still learning her manners — she’s working on not jumping up and sometimes forgets how strong she is — but it’s all just happy excitement and love. She’s fully potty trained, crate trained, not aggressive at all, and has a wonderful calm side to balance her playful one. She loves going for walks, adores her toys, and melts when you pet her, soaking up every bit of human attention — while also being perfectly content relaxing on her own. She’s truly one of those dogs that makes life sweeter just by being around. She hasn’t been spayed or microchipped yet, but she’s healthy, lovable, and ready to be someone’s best friend.
