Paige

Paige is a 3 year old Redbone Coonhound mix. She and her puppies were rescued from the south and transported to RI. All of her puppies have found their forever homes, but Paige is still on her quest for the perfect match! Paige has been in a few homes, but they didn't quite work out. She needs to be the ONLY animal in a dog savvy household-- no dogs, no cats, and no small animals, as she does have a prey drive. Paige did live with a 10 year old boy, but shouldn't live with anyone younger than that, as she a rough and tumble gal. Paige is INCREDIBLY smart! She picks up on training quickly and is eager to learn. She will need ongoing training-- as she does has a habit of jumping up at folks. True to her breed, Paige is very observant and notices everything.. and she will let you know! She is super food motivated and would do well with nose work and regular training. She definitely needs to be able to use her brain! Paige is fantastic on leash-- though, she can be very barky and reactive towards other dogs, but will settle down. Paige would make an excellent hiking partner and would do best in an active home. She has gone on many field trips to Heritage and Pulaski Park. She absolutely LOVES the water and wants to be shoulders deep in it. Our volunteer, Donna, has taken Paige home several times and cannot say enough about her! She's even met Donna's 92 year old mother and was a very polite gal. Paige is a great dog who needs someone to give her a chance and set clear boundaries with her. She is a working dog breed and needs to be able to use her brain to be a happy gal.
