About Anne

Anne, sometimes called Annie or Anne-cakes, is a happy-go-lucky Black and Tan Coonhound mix with a sweet and calm nature. She weighs about 40 pounds, striking a nice balance for anyone seeking a medium-sized dog without all the usual slobber that comes with some hounds. Watchful and loyal, Anne will let you know when someone’s at the door with her unmistakable hound call, but she’s respectful—just blocking her view quiets her right down. Anne gets along well with people and dogs, though puppies can sometimes get on her nerves. She’s easy-going, gentle, affectionate, and not needy, content to nap in the sun or amuse herself while you’re busy. People often comment on her beautiful markings, gentle eyes, soft fur, and floppy ears. She enjoys baths, sheds very little, and is happy to be petted. Anne is crate-trained, though she prefers no bedding, and she’ll do fine as either a family’s only pet or part of a calm dog group. Car rides, walks, hikes, and outings make her happy, and she’s always up for adventure or learning new things—especially when treats or praise are involved. Anne would do well with older kids, couples, or singles. While she doesn’t dig or try to escape at her current home, a previous foster noted she liked to dig when left outside alone, so she’d benefit from supervision or a securely fenced yard. She’s adaptable, ready for her next chapter, and has a lot of love to share. Let Anne show you what a wonderful companion she can be. Click apply to start the adoption process.
