About Eris

Adoption Fee: $25
Foxhound mix
Age: Adult
Sex: Female

Hey guys, this is Eris. Her former owner couldn't keep her due to having to move back in the spring, and we really didn't want to see her go to a shelter, so we've essentially been fostering her since then. We'd love to be her forever home, but she has some quirks that are pretty incompatible with our family. She's a sweet girl, loves cuddles, tussles, and walks, and listens well except when she's excited. We've been working with her on some behavior issues (listening, barking randomly, walking on a leash, charging the food dish, etc), and she has shown some pretty marked improvement in multiple areas, so she's definitely trainable. She's really good with kids, even the littlest (she'll bring the baby her ball and ask her to throw it). However, she's really excitable and doesn't always watch where she's jumping around, and we think she gets jealous of the adult's attention (she cries if she thinks you're not going to talk to her - it's honestly kinda pitiful), so she's probably going to be happiest in an environment with kids 10+, and that can commit to at least 1-2 decent walks per day. Unfortunately we have no idea how she is with cats or other dogs. She's spayed, vaccinated, and chipped, and has ~2 months of flea/tick/heartworm prevention, a month of food, bowls, toys, two beds, and a harness. Her records are available from Lakeside Animal Hospital here in Hermitage, who tell us she's a hound mix of unknown provenance. She's roughly 6 years old, and 40 lbs. This route isn't our preference, and we aren't in a hurry, but unfortunately this is the right decision for us, and it's very important to us that she go to a good home. If you or anyone you know is up for adopting her, please message me and we'll work out a time to meet her and chat about her above-mentioned traits. We're willing to drive her anywhere within about a 3-hour radius of Nashville, so please share as far and as widely as you can.
