Aria is a black Plott hound mix with a medium build, based in Washington, PA. She is a senior, just over 8 and a half years old, and is spayed. Her vaccinations are all up to date, and she is crate-trained. Having spent time with two rescues, Aria is ready to find a family who can keep up with her spirited personality.

About Aria

Aria spent more than a year at the St. Thomas VI Humane Society and has been with Pet Search since September. She’s a lively, playful Plott hound mix, weighing in at about 47lbs and around 5 years old. Aria craves an active family to keep up with her high spirits—she would thrive with a playful canine companion and a fenced yard or a committed adopter ready for regular walks and games. She’s working on her leash manners and impulse control, so consistency will help her shine. Aria is spayed, crate-trained, fully vaccinated, 4DX tested, and microchipped. She’s tested positive for heartworm; however, Pet Search will cover her treatment if continued through them after adoption. Households with young children aren’t the best fit—Aria’s energy suits older kids and adults best. She’s currently in Washington, PA. Ready to start a new chapter in a loving home.
