My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Rousseau, a delightful Bluetick Coonhound mix with a gorgeous brindle coat that turns heads wherever she goes. This charming lady has a heart full of love and a gentle spirit, making her the perfect companion for anyone seeking a loyal and affectionate friend.

Rousseau's favorite pastimes include cuddling up on the couch with her favorite people, lounging in the sunshine, and showing off her smarts. She absolutely loves car rides and will happily join you on any adventure. When you return home, Rousseau's joyful greeting and wagging tail will make you feel truly cherished.

Smart and eager to please, Rousseau knows lots of skills, thanks to her participation in APA!'s TOP Dog Obedience Program. Her well-behaved nature makes her an ideal houseguest, and she enjoys working for treats and showing off her skills.

Rousseau's ideal home would have a fenced yard where she can bask in the sun. She thrives as the only dog in the home, soaking up all the love and attention she desires. If you're looking for a smart, affectionate, and stunningly beautiful companion to share your life with, Rousseau is the perfect match. She's ready to bring joy, comfort, and unconditional love to her new forever family.
