Bart is a gorgeous medium energy young boy. He's approximately 2 years old or under. He's such a cuddly sweetheart and a pretty mellow guy. Bart is around 85 lbs and can easily knock small children over so would be better suited to older children. Goofy is putting it mildly! He's learning house manors and to walk nicely on a leash. His foster family is working on basic training with him. He gets along great with his foster Bloodhound buddy but he will chase cats. He doesn't want to hurt them but finds fun in the chase. He is a more dominant male who doesn't like to back down if challenged so is better suited to living with a female. Bart is a big ole goofy clown who needs a family with a sense of humor! :)
Please Note:We are all volunteers and busy taking care of our foster dogs so please take the time to fill out our o-nline adoption application if you are interested in more information about any of the hounds that we have for adoption. Filling out our application does not obligate you to adopt in any way. It does, however, help us to determine if the dog that your interested in would be a good match for your family and lifestyle. All of our dogs are fully vetted. They have been wormed, vaccinated, altered, microchipped, heartworm tested and on prevention.
ADOPTION FEE: $350.00
LOCATION: Bart is currently in foster care in Smithville, ON. Transportation to his forever home can be arranged. Don't let distance deter you! If you would like to give this beautiful boy a forever home please fill out our on line adoption application at ADOPTION APPLICATION
Canadian Hound Rescue is dedicated to promoting responsible hound ownership. Many of the hounds that end up in shelters or rescue are abandoned hunting dogs that were previously tied to a doghouse outside for most of the year, only to be let loose during hunting season. We believe that no hound should have to suffer such a fate, and will place hounds as indoor pets only. Since many of our hounds have never lived in a house before, all dogs are initially placed in foster homes where they are housetrained and learn basic house manners. While in foster care our hounds are also spayed or neutered, brought up to date on vaccinations, and provided with any necessary medical care. Finally, their temperament and personality are evaluated so that we can find the best possible match between each individual hound and its adoptive home.
If you would like to meet one of our hounds please contact us as they are located in foster homes throughout Ontario. We always need more foster homes. Fostering is essential to Canadian Hound Rescue in saving hounds and keeping our rescue going. The more homes we have, the more dogs we can save.
Our Adoption Process...
All adoptive homes are required to go through a screening process that includes a telephone interview, filling out an application, reference checks and a home visit. An adoption fee is required to offset some of the costs incurred in caring for and re-homing each hound. Canadian Hound Rescue remains committed to each animal for the rest of its life and if, at any time and for any reason, the adoption does not work out, we require that the hound be returned to us.
We Serve the Following Cities, Towns, and/or Counties...
Canadian Hound Rescue is a small, not-for-profit organization of volunteers dedicated to helping homeless and abandoned hounds find loving and permanent homes as indoor pets.
