Banshee is a handsome 2-year old male Hound/Beagle mix who was surrendered by his owner to the Washington County Ohio Dog Warden on February 26, 2025.
Banshee has a black-and-brown short smooth coat with a large patch of white on his chest, white paws, a long tail, and an adorable Beagle/Hound face with soft brown eyes, a black button nose, a slender muzzle, and large floppy ears.
Thanks to HSOV Kennel Tech Emma Dahlgren for accompanying Banshee for his photo session later in the afternoon on February 26th. Banshee has a friendly disposition and an outgoing personality. He was a pushover for attention and playtime during his 15-minutes of fame with Emma. Banshee playfully demonstrated his 'downward facing dog yoga' pose when he saw dogs being walked in the distance by volunteers.
Banshee weighs 49 lbs and walks fairly well on a leash.
Banshee will be neutered before being adopted by his new family (a requirement for HSOV adoptions to be finalized).
Update Banshee went home with a foster family on June 28, 2025 who plans to adopt him after he is neutered.
Banshee was returned to HSOV on July 1, 2025. Banshee was great with his foster dad and mom, but he didn't appear to be accustomed to sharing a home with young children .. and the children were a little intimidated by Banshee. So the family felt Banshee would be better suited in a home that he didn't share with small/young children.
Banshee was neutered on September 22, 2025 and was also given rabies vaccine.
