My story

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


Meet Hawk – Basset Hound Mix Built for Charm

Anytime you mix a dog with a basset hound, you’re guaranteed next-level cuteness—and Hawk is living proof! With his short legs, curious nose, and “who, me?” expressions, he’s basically a walking mood-booster. Hawk is a certified sniffer extraordinaire and would love daily walks where he can follow every fascinating scent the world has to offer. But once the exploring is done? He’s all about snuggling up and soaking in those belly rubs.

He also enjoys chasing tennis balls—though watching him run with those adorable little legs (which are always in first position, thank you very much) is arguably the real entertainment. Fun Fact: Hawk once got so invested in a smell that he gently walked into a bush without noticing. If you`re looking for a dog with charm, sweetness, and comedic timing built right in, Hawk’s your guy!
