Her story

June has been a much loved family dog. She has the most beautiful golden eyelashes. Her nickname is Princess Diana, or "Pri Di" for short. She is kind to everyone she meets and adores other dogs and children. City life has turned out to be hard on her, though. Traffic, planes and sirens make her anxious. Her family wants her to have the quiet, open space where she can really be herself.

June's dream is wide open spaces, but she would gladly call herself a suburb girl. Right now she lives in a Charleston home with a postage-stamp lot.

A fun bonus: her website, junebugmylove.com, goes with her to her new family.

What we love about June

• Sweet and gentle with everyone
• Great with kids and other dogs
• Quiet for a hound. She is not much of a barker
• She does not chew furniture
• Crate friendly in moderation. She doesn't mind a crate and sometimes walks into one on her own to lie down, but she's happiest when it isn't all day.

Her ideal home

• Land and a quiet setting is best, away from busy roads and city noise. A quiet suburban home with a good yard is welcome too
• A secure, tall fence. She can clear 5 feet, so taller is better
• Ideally another friendly dog to play with
• An active family. She has lots of energy and needs long walks and yard time every day
• People around. She is calmer when she has company

Good to know

• She pulls on the leash and startles easily, so a good harness helps
• She does not love car rides
• Spayed: Yes
• Vaccinations: Yes (up to date)
• Microchipped: Not known yet (check with vet)
• Adoption fee: None, no adoption fee
