Story
Meet BEANIE! Beanie is a gorgeous, 9 month old, 47 pound male brindle Plott Hound mix -- his tiger pattern and earnest gaze are hard to resist. This sweetie just had his freedom ride after spending two months at an overcapacity rural NC shelter. He is very sweet, lovable, and just wants to hang out/get attention from his humans! At about 9 months old, Beanie has puppy playfulness and is excited to meet people (of all ages) and dogs, but also nuzzles up to you for head rubs or belly rubs, and gently leans in for more. He loves playing with his toys and will cuddle with you during quiet times. Beanie is smart and already knows sit for a treat, but, as with any young dog, he will need to continue with some basic training so this young dog can become the well-behaved dog he can be.
Beanie ended up at a rural North Carolina shelter, and we can only imagine how he wondered why his family did not come find him and take him home. After two months at the overcapacity shelter, he was in danger and the shelter rescue coordinator asked if we could bring this extremely sweet dog into PetConnect to save him. He is so happy that PetConnect has come to his rescue and brought him to the DC area to find a forever family that will give him the attention that he deserves and never abandon him to such a scary place as a kill-shelter ever again.
Beanie would love to curl up with you to hang out on a cool fall night! He would be an excellent new member of the family!
