About Pumpkin Spice

Pumpkin Spice brings joy to her walks, frequently checking in with her human by looking back and grinning, ensuring you’re enjoying every moment as much as she is. At seven years old, she’s a mix of Chesapeake Bay Retriever and Plott Hound. Her distinctive red brindle coat features a white chest and white toes, complemented by the graceful silvered markings around her eyes and muzzle. Rescued on October 8, she's an athletic companion that thrives on outdoor activities. After a good walk, she loves to settle in and lean in for a cozy cuddle. While she has successfully interacted with other dogs when introductions are done thoughtfully, she does require a secure, tall fence around her home as she can leap over a four-foot barrier. Pumpkin Spice’s history with cats and children is unknown, so those introductions should be approached with care. Appointments for meet and greets can be scheduled, ensuring a delightful time for all. Make the connection; Pumpkin Spice is ready to start her next adventure with you!
