Dutch, Adult, Neutered Male, Tricolor Plott Hound
I can't get enough nature walks and I would love to have you scratch my ears (they're super soft!). Kids are my favorite thing! I love to lick their fingers and say hello to them gently. I am also great with other dogs! In fact, the staff think I am the best pup to introduce new dogs to because I go with the flow and love everyone. I love other dogs so much, I want find a family with another dog! If you are looking for a country boy with a gentle disposition and a love of snuggles and treats, I'm the happy hound for you!
