About Natalie

Natalie is one of four Plott Hounds rescued from a high-kill shelter, and she’s ready to start her new life. At around 8 months old and weighing approximately 40 pounds, she is still a young pup, learning about love and family. She has spent most of her life with her sisters in an outdoor kennel but is now discovering the joys of being indoors, where she can relax and soak up affection. Although Natalie is a bit more reserved than her braver sisters, she has a sweet and gentle nature. She will need a patient family who can help her learn the basics, such as house training and leash walking. Natalie gets along well with other dogs and has been around children, making her a great fit for a loving home. There are cats on the property, but her interactions with them have been limited. With her loving spirit and desire to please, Natalie truly deserves a second chance at happiness and adventure. This girl is ready for soft beds, belly rubs, and a family who will show her what love really means. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
