Dunkin
Male, Redbone Coonhound/Boxer Mix, current weight 61 pounds, Estimated age 1.5-2years old
Dunkin has a coppery coat that gleams like a penny in the sun and the soulful eyes of a dog who’s seen hard times and come out stronger. He’s currently being fostered by a loving family in Asheville, NC, who stepped in to care for him after Hurricane Helene devastated the region and forced Brother Wolf Animal Rescue to shut its doors temporarily. Dunkin may have had a rough start, but he’s thriving in his foster home and is ready to find his forever family.
Dunkin is house-trained, crate-trained, and full of heart. He loves his people fiercely and is happiest when he’s by their side, whether it’s cuddling on the couch, sleeping at their feet while they work, or tagging along on errands. He’s great on long walks and hikes, staying close both on and off-leash and coming back when called, especially if there are Dunkin snacks involved. Dunkin is happiest out in the country where he can trot along and sniff all the exciting smells to his hearts content. Dunkin gets along well with other dogs, reads their cues beautifully, and loves frisky playtime when the mood strikes. He’s also fantastic in the car, snoozing peacefully while you travel and even enjoys boating!
Dunkin does have a few quirks that make him even more lovable. His time as a stray has left him a bit food-insecure, so he’s always eager for mealtime (and yes, he may attempt some counter surfing if he thinks he can get away with it). A firm "No" keeps him in check, though, while he is learning self control . Loud noises make him nervous, so he’s not a fan of fireworks or gunshots, but that just means he’d prefer a cozy home over a hunting trip. And while he’s a big boy, he doesn’t know it—he loves climbing into laps or standing on his hind legs for a hug.
Dunkin is the kind of dog who makes you feel like the most important person in the world. His loyalty, affection, and zest for life make him the perfect companion for someone who can give him the love and stability he so deserves. If you’re looking for a hiking buddy, brewery pal, and cuddle enthusiast all in one, Dunkin is your guy!
