Libby came into our care by way of a local animal control facility after being picked up as a stray.  She was a young adult, but she was still very much a puppy in spirit.  Libby was a happy girl who was full of energy and loved to play.  She was eager to please and, as with most hounds, she was very food motivated---she just needed to find a family who would be willing to work with her.  Once Libby had been spayed, tattooed, micro-chipped and updated on her vaccinations, she was ready to find her forever home.  She was adopted by a fabulous young couple in Victoria who are committed to continuing on with her training.  Libby has a canine brother named "Johnny" who also has lots of energy and loves to play.

***An update from Libby’s family:

"...just a little message to update you on Libby.  She is adjusting well to our household and her behaviour and "manners" have been slowly improving.  We have been able to leave her in the house with the other dog (alone) when we go to work, etc...without too much damage.  We are also starting obedience classes with her next Tuesday through the Greater Victoria Dog Obedience Training Club, though she is now able to sit, usually stay, and walk fairly reasonably on a leash.  She also goes to Doggie Daycare twice a week now, and that has really helped with her dog social skills.  We've gone for a couple of walks to Thetis Lake, and she's been very good when meeting other people and dogs along the way.  Now, just to keep her away from the cat litter...

I've attached a few pictures of her and our other dog, Johnny, as well."

"Today was a big day for Libby!  She graduated from her obedience training class, and we celebrated with giant milk bones.  "Sitting" is her best skill so far.  Hope you enjoy the pictures."
