Meet Raven, our sweet Foxhound mix! Once listed as CODE RED at a shelter in North Carolina and in danger of being euthanized, volunteers both near and far sprung into action to quickly hatch a plan to rescue Raven. With the help of friends of the shelter, a generous offer from Coonhound Companions “Project Hound” to sponsor all of her vetting needs, and Transport making room for Raven, she arrived safe and sound in Vermont and is enjoying the good life in a stable foster home while waiting to unite with a family she deserves.

Raven arrived at the shelter as a stray so we do not have any information about her former life. We do know that Raven is a nice, medium sized girl at 37 lbs, approximately 2 years old. She is happy to share her foster home with other dogs and cats. While she seems to enjoy the company of other dogs, she would also soak up the attention of being the only dog in the home and center of your world. She is respectful of the older dogs who do not like to play much, but is up for play when they do engage with her. She happily entertains herself with toys, being especially fond of stuffing-free type toys.

Raven’s super friendly, easy-going temperament, and medium energy, all make her a suitable companion for a family with kids, outdoor adventures, and activities with canine friends. Arriving with a clean slate, Raven would love to work with you as a team to develop some basic obedience skills….sit, down, stay, recall. She walks well on leash and enjoys long walks or a hike to explore the woods, and then is happy to flop down in her favorite chair for a nap. Raven is crate trained and will sleep quietly until you are ready to get up in the morning. You can expect Raven to start her day with stretches and downward dogs as she makes her way outside to potty.
