My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You're looking at Jericho's photos and saying to yourself, "What a Stud", right? Well, Jericho actually was a stud for a couple of years, then he was given away and has lived the last 2 years pretty much as an outdoor dog. It just wasn't a safe place for him, in fact, he even got bitten by a rattlesnake once, so his new owner decided he could have a better life somewhere else and he came to us.

Jericho is 4 years old and it's hard to describe how handsome he is, the photos just don't do him justice, he's a tri-color, but he makes other tri-colored bassets look washed out. Instead of the usual brown he has a beautiful mahogany red color. He also happens to be sweet and loving, and very smart. Jericho learned the doggie door in a few minutes, and is well on his way to being house-trained.

So far he has enjoyed some long walks and some trips to the dog park, both of which he liked a lot. Jericho is a very willing pupil, he just needs a kind and patient teacher to show him the things in life that he's been missing. He gets along well with other dogs, cats and older children that we know of, and is so gentle would most likely do well with younger children too. If you would like to take over Jericho's education, fill out an application, but do it soon, we dont think it will take long for him to find his forever home.
