My story

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

Meet Vincent — the big-hearted boy who is learning to trust.

Vincent is sweet, expressive dog who has made tremendous progress over the last couple months. When he first arrived, we honestly wondered if he might have been feral- he didn’t seem to understand people, routines, or what a home was supposed to feel like.

But during his recent professional training session, we learned something incredibly important:
Vincent is not feral. He is simply fearful- this means he can learn, grow, and connect with patience as he learns to trust. This small shift in understanding makes a huge difference.

What Vincent has learned so far:
* He has started to build confidence and is recovering from fear much faster than before.
* he’s learning that humans can be safe, predictable, and even fun.
* he now practices short car rides, wears his harness comfortably, and is slowly becoming more confident about exploring new spaces.
* potty training is going great!
* he is quiet in his crate.
* his personality- he really Vincent- is starting to shine through—

His personality? It’s amazing!

Vincent is loud and LOVES to use his voice. He’s incredibly playful and has the cutest quirk: when he’s excited or showing off he flashes this awesome toothy grin that makes everyone laugh. He loves other dogs and comes alive while playing with them.

Who Vincent is hoping to find:
Once Vincent has decided you’re safe, he is deeply affectionate, goofy, and so eager to connect with. He’s the kind of dog who will bond hard with his personal- the kind who makes every bit of effort feel worth it.

Vincent has already come so far. Now he just needs someone who sees the same potential in him that we do.

More about this rescue

Hound Rescue is always in need of foster homes. We do not have a shelter so our ability to rescue is limited only by the number of families willing to take in a beagle in need. If interested go to http://houndrescue.com and click on "How to Foster."

Hound Rescue started in Austin, Texas in 1998. We are a small group of individuals who foster dogs in our homes. Hound Rescue also provides placement assistance to both shelters and others who need to find homes for hounds who for whatever reason have become stray.

Most of our animals come from high-kill facilities where they were scheduled to be euthanized. Because of the huge numbers of unwanted dogs, Hound Rescue Texas can only take owner surrenders on a limited basis as space permits in our foster home network.
