Oct., 2017: Poor Dougie. He is losing his home because his owner has no time for him. DOUGIE has been shuttled from quite a few homes already in his young life, so it's no surprise that he's initially unsure of himself and others at times. He's ~almost 2 yrs old and is a very handsome Hound Mix. He's full of energy and a little bit of mischief wink emoticon. He is super smart and already knows a few commands (sit, paw, other paw
, down) and is thrilled to work(train) for treats. He also loves to run around after balls and toys. He is particularly fond of squeaky toys and will run around, throwing it up in the air in delight. He's quite the silly boy. After earning your trust, he is very affectionate, wanting to wrap his big paws around you for a hug and attention.
He is good on leash with a harness or gentle leader but could use some refinement to make walk time enjoyable for everyone.
No young children.
He lived with a cat and was fine with the cat. He is dog-friendly with proper introduction and loves spending time romping around our play yard with his Rescue Ridge canine friends. Here's his video link: https://youtu.be/ItZ6QTivED8
