My personality

My story

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

Molly is an 8-year-old classic Basset Hound with a big personality and more energy than you’d expect from a senior gal! Independent and confident, she loves spending time outdoors with her nose to the ground, exploring every scent the world has to offer. Walks are one of her favorite activities, and she enjoys every adventure with her family by her side.

Molly is house-trained, uses a doggie door, and prefers to sleep in her crate overnight. She loves being around people and soaks up every bit of affection she can get—pets, belly rubs, and kisses are always welcome! She gets along well with other dogs as long as they respect her space, food, and toys—and understand that she’s the boss. Her previous owner also reported that she does well with cats.

While Molly adores people, she’d do best in a home without young children under 10, as she appreciates her space and quiet time. She has learned to use her voice since settling in and will bark to alert her family about visitors or passing dogs, wants food or snacks, ready to get in bed, excitement over walks, or just needs some love. She does have mild separation anxiety and whines for a bit when her family leaves. Combined with her barking, she may be disturbing to close neighbors like in a townhouse, apartment, or condo setting.

Molly has mild skin allergies that are easily managed with daily medication to keep her looking and feeling her best.

Full of sass, love, and classic Basset charm, Molly is ready to find her forever home. Contact BROOD today to meet Molly! Her adoption fee is $200.00.

**Only BROOD-approved adopters can meet a dog (no exceptions). Our adoption application is on the BROOD website at https://brood-va.org/adoptionapp/. We adopt to residents of Virginia, Maryland, West Virginia, DC, Delaware, and southern Pennsylvania. Do not apply to adopt from BROOD if you live in another state. We require a virtual home visit and a veterinary reference. The age of BROOD dogs is an estimate, as very few come with exact age records. 11/04/2025
