Hopkins County Humane Society’s Pet of the Week Monday, April 15

Meet Baby, a resilient and loving 2-year-old dog who’s a unique mix of Plott Hound and Mountain Cur. Baby’s journey began when she arrived at the shelter as a stray, accompanied by her 11 precious puppies. Thanks to the diligent efforts of the shelter staff, her puppies found their way to rescue organizations, but Baby herself is still awaiting her forever home. Despite her challenging start, Baby’s temperament shines through. She’s a gentle soul who gets along well with cats, dogs, and children alike, making her an ideal addition to any family. Baby has been in a foster home and she is house trained, crate trained, and a joy to walk on a leash. However, Baby’s journey to finding her forever family hits a snag-she’s tested positive for heartworm. While this might seem daunting, it’s a hurdle that can be overcome with proper treatment and care, which a potential adopter can discuss with their local vet. Despite being in the shelter for 30 days, Baby hasn’t lost hope. She eagerly awaits the day when she’ll finally find a loving home where she can share her boundless affection and loyalty with her new family.
