Adopt a Bluetick Coonhound / Coonhound (short coat)

Meet pretty Ladybug!

Hi there!  My name is Ladybug, and I have a huge personality for a little hound! I came all the way from Tennessee, where I was used for breeding and never allowed to live in a house.

When I arrived to Canada I was so scared and hid in my crate for weeks, was pretty sick and just exhausted from my previous life. Thankfully, my foster parents were patient with me; they taught me how to live in a house (especially using those pesky stairs), how to walk on a leash, enjoy my dinner without fear, know what it’s like to have a cozy bed and make friends with people that come to visit, my foster siblings and other area dogs – I’m a real star around the neighbourhood!

The wonderful rescue has helped me though a few health hiccups, even making sure I received the ACL surgery I needed. My little knee is as good as new, meaning I’m ready for long walks around the neighbourhood or trails – I LOVE my walks! Just please remember, I can NEVER be off-leash, but do LOVE my 20’ training leash when going for long walks on trails…oh the things I can sniff on those trails!

I’m still working on my fear of males; I’m simply not confident around men and it takes a while for me to trust them. There are certain things males do that trigger my fear and set me back; the sound of an opening pop or beer can terrify me, so please just open them in a different room, or loud sounds of yelling or talking; I know you’re likely just excited watching that hockey game, but it makes me really scared.

I am looking for a special home. I need someone who will be patient with me as we work together through my fears and training. I’m very timid at first and it might take me some time to trust. I’m good when left alone, but really love my human companions the most.

I am the cutest naturally and know it too! Once you get to know my sassy personality, I’ll have you in stitches laughing non-stop! If you’re looking for a snuggle or walking buddy, I just might be your girl because I’m looking for my forever home.
