From Mower County Humane Society

River came to MCHS on 9/30/2025 as a stray caught after running loose for a few days, held for the legal hold time, and never claimed. We are fairly certain of her original background as several puppies that looked like her were dumped by their owner near our shelter in February 2024. We eventually found out that those pups were born in late November 2023 to a Great Dane mix mother and bluetick coonhound father and that the entire litter was not abandoned. All of those puppies found homes and now River is still waiting for one after coming to the shelter as an adult. She has been vet checked, spayed, and microchipped, and her fee is $150. River certainly exemplifies many hound characteristics in both looks and behavior. Hounds and their mixes tend to be stubborn, fun loving, and ruled by their noses and the scents on the breeze. River is energetic, strong, and does like to push the boundaries. She's also extremely happy and loving. She will require a secure environment and a lot of exercise. At this time, we do think she'd do best as the only pet in the home, at least until she gets some good training and socialization. She definitely needs some basic training and would do best…

In the rescue's own words, as they published it.

How adopting River works

Mower County Humane Society decides every adoption: its application, its fee, its home check and its timing. Everybarn only shows this animal on the rescue's behalf, takes no payment and passes no messages.
