Meet Pettersson

Add to favourites

These four boys came to us on transfer from the north, and will soon be looking for their forever homes! The boys are steadily growing and will continue until they are large breed dogs! They have a smoochy face, which is a characteristic of Coonhounds and Ridgebacks. If you fancy a howl, or a show in your home, then one of these boys are for you! Coonhounds are very intelligent, stubborn breeds and will require a patient guardian who can continue to socialize, train with R+ obedience methods and continue to explore scent work and hounds are lead by their nose! Because of this, it is very important to be extra cautious with these dogs off leash as their nose can often find them in trouble! They are highly active dogs, requiring a busy hosehold with yard access. They are not suitable for apartment living and would do best with a breed experienced adopter.

These puppies initially found their way into shelter at 4 weeks old and were suspected to have Cerebeller Hypoplasia. Fortunately on re-examination at 8 weeks of age, the vet does not feel like they have a neurological disorder after all.

Please come into the shelter during visiting hours if you would like to meet me. You can also submit an application online if I am in foster or you would like to save some time when you come visit. While we do welcome online applications, in person meets have top priority.
