🐾💕REESE 💕🐾

This beautiful young girl was taken in from a hoarding/neglect situation by a Good Samaritan and thanks to her being able to foster her for us, we were able to help ❤️ Reese is 9.5 months old and weighs around 40lbs. Her previous owner said she was a hound/lab mix but we really don’t know her exact mix. Her beautiful coloring is what got her her new name…Just like a Reese’s peanut butter cup ☺️

What we do know is that she is good with other dogs, kids, cats, loves car rides, and is both house and crate trained. She is a total sweetheart, and would love a home with another dog to play with along with some hooman kids to grow up and be best friends with ❤️

Reese is currently being fostered in Deale MD and will be ready join her new family once her vetting is complete. For more information about this VERY sweet girl or to request an application please message this page or email us at [email protected]! 🐾💕

Roscoe is the last bloodhound at our WV rescue kennel who’s still looking for his perfect someone 🐾

This handsome boy was adopted about a month or so ago to a great home, but it turned out to not be the right fit. While they absolutely loved his sweet and loving personality, it was quickly determined that he didn’t like to be left alone in the home when his owner went to work. And not having another dog buddy to hang with didn’t help him with adjusting to his new routine. So he’s back with Sandy at the kennel where he’s welcomed to live out his furever but we’ll keep him in our available album in case his perfect fit comes along ❤️

Roscoe came to our rescue a year ago after being found chained to a tree, abandoned by his owners when they moved. This could explain why he doesn’t want to be left alone…bloodhounds are very sensitive souls, and he probably remembers them walking away 💔 We are not sure of his age but we think he’s around 8, and he’s
a strong boy that LOVES attention. He will need another friendly dog to hang with and someone who is home a lot, at least until he gets adjusted to his new surroundings and routine. He does need to be fed separately from other dogs and while he enjoys the company of children we feel that teenaged kids would be best.

Roscoe is fully vetted, neutered, housetrained and located at our rescue kennel in Dunmore WV where a meet and greet can definitely be arranged. If you feel that he would be a good fit for your lifestyle, please email us at [email protected] for more information 🐾

We have some wonderful news! Tungsten has been adopted by his new family in CT!! 🤗

He joins AMMAR alumni’s Ginger & Cricket along with another bloodhound sister, Belle, who insisted that they need a big brother 😁 He is settling in great and absolutely loves playing and romping in the yard with his new sisters ❤️

We truly want to thank his foster mom Kim for taking him in and caring for him over the last several months. We couldn’t have helped him without her foster offer…Fosters are the only way that we can continue to help these amazing hounds, and we’ve always said that THEY are their true HEROS ❤️

Tungsten, we all wish you nothing but the best life sweet boy…Welcome HOME!! 😊🐾

As many of you may or may not know, our WV rescue kennel is now closed to intake indefinitely. But there’s one very special girl still there, who’s still waiting to finally go home 💔

It’s been 8 months now since Bonnie joined Sandy at the kennel. She was at a local shelter after being picked up as a stray and she was very sick 😞 You see, Bonnie had pyometra which is an infection of the uterus that if not treated quickly could be fatal. Luckily our friend who is also a fantastic vet was able to surgically remove Bonnie’s infected uterus, saving her life ❤️ But here she still sits and waits for her new journey to begin…

While she isn’t a hound, she IS a sweetheart of a girl. Her age is somewhat of a mystery…The shelter had her as 2.5 years old, but her vet felt more like she was around 8-9. Sandy at the kennel feels she’s closer to 4-5 so if you’re looking for a middle aged girl then Bonnie has it covered. We are not certain of her breed either but perhaps a shepherd/border collie mix of some sort? She weighs about 70lbs and does well with all of the hound kids, but what she REALLY loves is attention from her hooman which she soaks up like a sponge ❤️

Bonnie is fully vetted and located at our rescue kennel in Dunmore WV where a meet and greet can definitely be arranged. Transport assistance is also available to the right home. For more information or to request an application for this very special girl please EMAIL us at [email protected] 🐾

SANSA…Adoption Pending ❤️

This beautiful girl came to us by no fault of her own, and was very loved in her previous home. But due to some ongoing health issues they have been dealing with, they wanted her to find the home she deserves…

Sansa turns 2 this month. She is a very loving and playful girl, with the usual energy of a young bloodhound. While we are still learning about her, here’s what we know so far…

🐾 She’s completely housetrained and sleeps in her crate at night with no issues.

🐾 She enjoys toys, sticks, and romping around the yard.

🐾 She is unsure of new things, but has mastered the stairs and is getting more comfortable with doorways and hardwood floors ☺️

🐾 She does well with other dogs her size, and would do great with another dog who could be a playmate and role model for her.

🐾 She has a great nose and has had some SAR training by her previous owner. While she’s not a good candidate to do it professionally, she would probably love to do it recreationally down the road.

🐾 Her foster family is working with her on her leash manners and her confidence, and she has already shown great improvement in the short time she’s been with them ❤️

Sansa is being fostered in MD and will be ready to find her forever family once she’s fully vetted and we learn more about her. Please stay tuned for updates! 🐾

With today being St. Patrick’s Day ☘️, Bonnie is sure hoping that some of that Irish luck comes her way! 🐾

Bonnie has been with us for 6 months now. She may not be a bloodhound or any type of hound for that matter, but she IS a sweetheart of a girl who’s still waiting for her perfect someone to finally find her 💕

Her age is somewhat of a mystery…The shelter had her as 2.5 years old, but her vet felt more like she was around 8-9. Sandy at the kennel feels she’s closer to 4-5 so if you’re looking for a younger to middle aged girl then Bonnie has it covered ☺️ We are not certain of her breed either but perhaps a shepherd/border collie mix of some sort? She weighs about 70lbs and does well with all of the hound kids, but what she REALLY loves is attention which she soaks up like a sponge ❤️

Bonnie is fully vetted and located at our rescue kennel in Dunmore WV where a meet and greet can definitely be arranged. Transport assistance is also available to the right home. For more information or to request an application for this very special girl please EMAIL us at [email protected]! 🍀🐾🍀

Sharing a post

For a big part of her 5 years, Eloise’s world mainly consisted of a dog box and a tether. She lived a small life, with a giant heart that only wanted to love and be loved.

She joined our rescue back in June thanks to help from two very special people, and was gladly taken in by Sandy at our rescue kennel. This sweet girl captured everyone’s hearts along her journey, and now she has captured the most important hearts of all…those of the family that will love her FOREVER ❤️ Eloise has been officially ADOPTED by her foster to adopt family!! 🥰

She now lives in PA and has a new fur brother and sister, AMMAR alumni’s Chief (left) & Scout (right) who she absolutely adores and loves to play with. Her foster dad said that it was like she was the missing piece, and now their family is complete ❤️

Eloise we all wish you a lifetime of happiness sweet girl and the BEST future. Your dog box has now become a home, your tether has now become the loving embrace of your family, and your wish has now finally come true…Happy FOREVER sweetheart 💕🐾

Six months ago, a sweet foxhound girl named Caroline joined our rescue when one of our past fosters offered to take her in. Her life up to this point was a bit of a rough road, and she was also HW + 😞

Fast forward to today, and Caroline is now not only healthy and happy but she also found what she wanted all along…To finally be HOME ❤️ We are SO HAPPY to announce that Caroline is staying right where she is, and has been adopted by her foster mom!! 🥰

This pretty girl joins AMMAR alumni’s Freddie, Watson & Amber along with some other new fur siblings to play and nap with. She enjoys laying in the sun and collecting things from around the house for her treasure collection 😁 But most of all she will be loved FOREVER ❤️

Happy endings like these can only happen with your support. Please consider fostering a hound in need…we can’t help them without you!

Welcome HOME sweet Caroline!! 💕🐾

Sometimes being last is not such a bad thing…Like being the last one to leave an amazing vacation or the last one to wake up from a good sound sleep. But being the last bloodhound at the rescue kennel to find their new family? Well…not so much 😕

Roscoe joined us back in May after being found chained to a tree, abandoned by his owners when they moved. We are not sure of his age but we believe he’s around 5. He gets along well with the other dogs but he does need to be fed separately and would do best in a home with children over 12. He’s a strong boy with a bit of an independent side, but he loves playing with toys, LOVES attention and will wiggle his whole body when you are loving on him ☺️

Roscoe is available for adoption or foster to adopt…He’s fully vetted, neutered, housetrained and just a really good guy ❤️ He’s located at our rescue kennel in Dunmore WV where a meet and greet can definitely be arranged. Transport assistance is also available to the right home. For more information or to request an application please EMAIL us at [email protected] 🐾

He’s been waiting patiently for eight months now for his perfect someone to find him. Eight months in the life of a bloodhound is a LONG time. Please give him a share so that he hopefully doesn’t have to wait much longer to finally go home ❤️🐾❤️

Today was our first adoption of 2024 ☺️ And to make it even MORE special, the day belonged to our longest resident TILLY! After waiting for over a year, this sweet girl joined her new mom and headed HOME to CT!! ❤️

She’ll have lots of fenced acres to explore with her new hound brother Jasper, lots of comfy places to nap on while getting belly scratches, and her mom is going to pursue SAR training with her which she will LOVE! But most of all she’ll have a family who will love her forever which is all she’s ever wished for ❤️ We want to also thank our friends who helped with her transport today…we couldn’t do any of this without all of you ❤️

It may have taken a long time for your special person to find you Matilda, but you hit the jackpot and we are SO happy and excited for you to begin this wonderful new journey…welcome HOME sweet girl! 💕🐾

Some people say that the eyes are the windows to the soul…If that’s true, then one look into Bonnie’s beautiful brown eyes will show you how extremely special she is ❤️ She may not be a bloodhound or any type of hound for that matter, but she is a sweetheart of a girl who is still waiting for her perfect someone to finally find her 💕

Bonnie’s age is somewhat of a mystery. The shelter had her as 2.5 years old, but her vet felt more like she was around 8-9. Sandy at the kennel feels she’s closer to 3-4 so if you’re looking for a younger to middle aged girl then Bonnie has it covered ☺️ We are not certain of her breed either but perhaps a shepherd/border collie mix of some sort? She weighs about 70lbs and does well with all of the hound kids, but what she REALLY loves is attention which she soaks up like a sponge ❤️ She’s been waiting to love on a family of her own for four months now…Who’s ready to love on her FOREVER?

Bonnie is fully vetted and located at our rescue kennel in Dunmore WV where a meet and greet can definitely be arranged. Transport assistance is also available to the right home. For more information or to request an application for this very special girl please EMAIL us at [email protected] 🐾

As we say goodbye to 2023, we wanted to thank all of our adopters, fosters, volunteers and supporters for we couldn’t have made it through another year without all of you ❤️

While we have been forced to slow down our rescue efforts at a time when there’s more in need then ever 😞 we pray that 2024 brings new hope that we can continue to help more of these amazing kids. We know that these are tough times but we still have faith that more people will decide to give fostering a try, volunteer to transport, or donate to help with the ever rising vetting costs. But even if this turns out to be the end, we are just so thankful to have been able to help the ones that we have ❤️

2024 should be amazing for Holly, Caroline & Eloise as they are all in foster to adopt homes and are flourishing ☺️ And our long-timer Tilly is heading home to Connecticut in a couple of weeks! 🥰 Bonnie and Roscoe hope that the new year brings them their new families too 💕 We will keep on going as long as we can because all of these kids deserve a second chance, a loving home, and a happy forever ❤️

We hope all of you have a wonderful New Year and cheers to 2024!! 🎉🐾
