About Stryker

Meet Stryker, a charming Coonhound who is about one year old. He and his brother were rescued from a troubling situation but have shown nothing but sweetness and love. Stryker is easygoing and affectionate, thriving with adults and older sturdy kids. He’s an active young dog who may unintentionally knock over toddlers, so an environment with older children is best for him. Stryker would flourish in a home with another dog, as he enjoys the companionship. While he’s crate-trained, we’re still learning about his house-training habits since he’s been in a kennel. Currently, Stryker is neutered and up-to-date on his vaccinations, and he’s heartworm negative. He’s eager to find a family that appreciates his gentle and warm demeanor. If you think you can provide Stryker a loving home, don’t hesitate to reach out! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
