Hattie

My story

Approximate Age: 3 Approximate Weight: 43 lbs Meet Hattie Hattie is a lively and affectionate hound mix with a big personality and an even bigger love for the outdoors. ● Boisterous and playful, especially outside—she loves to run and explore ● Friendly with people and gets along well with other dogs ● Enjoys toys and engages in active play ● Crate trained and displays excellent potty manners. ● Needs a securely fenced yard or leashed walks—her hound instincts make her prone to following scents ● Has a strong pull on leash and is still working on leash manners ● Can jump gates and puppy pens with ease ● Needs supervision around cats—she’s lived with one but can get overly excited ● Not suitable for homes with chickens ● An enthusiastic chewer—needs appropriate outlets and supervision Hattie will thrive in an active home that understands hound behavior and is committed to providing structure, exercise, and continued training. ********************************************************************* Visit our website for an application to adopt. https://www.olddominionhumanesociety.org/adoption-application What breed am I? Mixed mutt! ODHS does not breed label (unless there’s official paperwork), as studies show it is nearly impossible to tell the exact breed of each dog based off of their appearance.
