I’m Doobie, a cuddly, snuggly, lovable 8-year-old classic Basset Hound who’s ready for a fresh start. I came to BROOD when my family had to move, and although I was a bit sad at first, I’ve settled in quickly with my foster family!
I’m fully house-trained and can use a doggie door, and while crating isn’t my thing (I’m a bit too independent for that), I’m so well-behaved that I don’t need one! Even though I’m considered a “mature” pup, I still have plenty of energy and love to play! I enjoy running with other dogs at the park and adore toys, especially chew bones. Just keep an eye on those stuffed toys, as I’m known to un-stuff them in record time!
I’m quite the talker and will let you know when it’s time to go outside, when dinner’s ready, or if I’m just happy you’re home. I’m a bit sad when my family leaves, but I settle down quickly and take a nice, long snooze until they return.
My ideal home would have a fenced yard since I’m not the best on leash and could use some work on my walking manners. Car rides aren’t my favorite either, as I get a bit too excited and vocal until I’m back out again! And one last note—I’m not a fan of cats, so a cat-free home is best for me.
I get along well with people, children, and other dogs, and I’d love a canine sibling, though I’d also be happy as an only dog. As long as I have a cozy couch, a loving family, and plenty of belly rubs, I’ll be as happy as can be!
If you’re looking for a sweet companion who’ll keep you company all winter, contact BROOD today. Let’s make some memories together! My adoption fee is $150.00.
**Only BROOD-approved adopters can meet a dog (no exceptions). Our adoption application is on the BROOD website at https://brood-va.org/adoptionapp/. We adopt to residents of Virginia, Maryland, West Virginia, DC, Delaware, and southern Pennsylvania. Do not apply to adopt from BROOD if you live in another state. We require a virtual home visit and a veterinary reference.
The age of many BROOD dogs is unknown, as very few come with official records. The estimate on the dog’s age is usually the initial estimate given by the receiving shelter, which may be different from that given at the time of the initial checkup. Different veterinarians may also give different ages, and those different opinions are sometimes reflected on the record. ***BROOD’s adoption fees are determined based on the age of the dog. 11/1/2024
