Here's what the humans have to say about me:
NAME: Sheldon
BREED: Basset Hush Puppy
GENDER: Male
WEIGHT: 14-20 lbs
AGE: DOB: 07-12-19
LOCATION: Leon Valley, Texas
DONATION: $450.00
Includes all vaccinations and Microchip
ADOPTED ON 01-17-20: Four beautiful puppies dumped on a back road by careless humans. Just another sad story heard all too often. Luckily, the ending is often happy; a big-hearted person drives by, sees the box of puppies, and brings them to a shelter, where they can wait for their forever homes to adopt them.
This is the case for Sheldon and his three siblings. Just born in July, someone thought it was a good idea to drop them off on a back road to fend for themselves. Too often, these people think this is the “best thing”, that someone will pick them up or they will survive on their own. This is just not the case. They are exposed to the weather, wild animals, and they just do not know how to take care of themselves. Sheldon and his siblings are Basset Hound mixes, but one thing is for sure: the level of cuteness is unbelievable!
Sheldon is a social puppy, like his three siblings, and enjoys playtime with them. He has not displayed any strong likes or dislikes yet as he is still developing his own personality. He is a playful, young puppy and would do well with yard play. True to the breed's appearance, this fawn-colored young male loves his life and is totally delightful, playful and an absolute great puppy. Pull up a chair and let him go, he will have you in stitches all the time with his little antics!"
This clownish guy with his gorgeous gold bright coloring and puppy dog eyes, is sure to steal away the hearts of anyone who meets him. Sheldon is a healthy, happy puppy so really all there is to say about him is that he enjoys playing, playing, and more playing. He loves tumbling around with his brothers and sister and playing with his toys. All that is missing is a family to call his own. Take a look at Sheldon, and consider welcoming him into your home, and giving him the warm, loving home he deserves.
ABOUT THE BREED: The Basset Hound fits perfectly into family life with its sweet, peaceful and gentle nature. These dogs are well behaved and always friendly. They are not aggressive to people and other animals. They will happily welcome your guests with a tail wag.
If you’re looking for an easy dog to groom, then they may be right for you. They make a good family dogs since Basset Hounds are friendly with all even intruders. Nothing is as better as curling up with your Basset Hound at the end of the day.
