Meet Elvis – A Charming, Independent Coonhound Mix Looking for a Loving Home
Introducing Elvis, a 2-year-old male Coonhound mix with a heart full of love and a personality all his own. Elvis may be a little shy when first meeting new people, but once he warms up, he reveals a sweet and loyal companion who is sure to bring joy to your life. This charming boy is independent, intelligent, and full of character, making him a unique addition to any home.
Elvis is the kind of dog who knows how to entertain himself. His intelligence and independent streak mean he enjoys exploring his surroundings and finding ways to amuse himself. While his initial shyness might require some patience, those who take the time to build a bond with him will be rewarded with a devoted, affectionate companion who truly values connection once he’s comfortable.
Training & Behavior Needs:
Elvis is a smart dog who learns quickly, but he will need an experienced, patient owner to help him build confidence and teach him the structure and manners he needs. Here’s what you need to know about his training and behavioral needs:
Timid at First: Elvis tends to be shy and reserved when meeting new people. He may take some time to warm up to strangers, but once he feels secure, he is a loyal and loving dog. His new family should be prepared for a gradual introduction and be patient as Elvis builds trust.
Training Potential: Elvis is highly intelligent, which means he will learn quickly with positive reinforcement and consistent training. While he may need a little time to feel comfortable, his ability to grasp new concepts is a big advantage. He will thrive in an environment where he can engage in training that challenges his mind and provides structure.
Prey Drive: As a Coonhound mix, Elvis has a high prey drive, which means he is naturally inclined to chase small animals. He may not be comfortable around other pets, particularly cats or small animals, so he is best suited for a home where he is the only pet. His new family should be aware of his prey drive and provide a secure environment where he is not exposed to situations where he might feel compelled to chase or hunt.
Training Needs: Elvis may require some basic training to help with manners, leash walking, and socialization. He is a dog that thrives on routine, so providing consistent structure in his day-to-day activities will help him feel secure and make training more successful. El

We require potential adopters to fill out an pre-adoption application. If that application is approved, the dog/cat must be spayed/neutered before it leaves our shelter (if not already done). If it is a puppy under 4 months old, we allow it to go home with the adopters under a foster care agreement until it is old enough to be returned for spay/neuter. Kittens are allowed to leave before spay/neuter is done, but they must be done within a certain time frame.
Fees: Dogs/puppies range from $150-300, depending on if they came in already spayed/neutered or if we paid to have that done.
Cats range from $80 - $140, though we often have deals on older cats or cats that have been there a long time.
Kittens are $60 with $25 refunded once it has been spayed/neutered.
All adoptions include at least the first vaccination, deworming, de-fleaing, microchip ID, and 6 weeks of pet insurance.
