My story

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

**SENIOR**  Huck (aka Huckleberry Hound) is everything a hound should be.  Goofy, sniffy, sweet - he is always happy, and happy to share his day with you.  We think he is 8 years old and around 60 pounds.  He is easy in the house - very well behaved. Huck wants to be near his people. His foster tells us he spends most of his day sleeping but is ready for a walk every few hours and food whenever it is given to him.  He LOVES going for walks.  He doesn't pull hard (unless a silly squirrel lets him get close) but finds great joy in sniffing all the great smells.  Don't you want a dose of enthusiasm in your day? (Be sure to check out the video of Huck in his element - the woods!)



While waiting for his food to be put down his tail is constantly wiggling while he sits. He is generally quiet in the house unless he hears dogs in the neighborhood barking and wants to see why. He doesn’t seem interested in toys.  He gets into his open crate on his own at bedtime and sleeps there all night with the door open.  He is house-trained.  He is good about not getting on the furniture and loves his cozy bed. 



A good boy who loves to please, Huck will make a great companion for an individual or a family.  With a loving person who will give him walks, guidance, and affection, he will be a faithful companion and best friend. Huck loves neck and belly rubs and ear scratches. He wants to connect with people, and he will appreciate the comforts of a home and a soft touch. Will you be the person who gives that gift to this deserving guy!?   



PAW adopts in the DC, MD, northern VA, and southern PA area only.
