Meet Copper, a 1 year old male Bassett Hound! Copper has been in a foster home with four other dogs and has proven to get along well with everyone he meets, after he has a chance to settle in and adjust. Copper loves to play, run, wrestle and romp with the other playful dogs in his foster home. He is a snuggler, lover, player, and all around adorable and silly pup, looking for his forever family!
This adorable boy is SO SMART and learns quickly. He is housetrained and with continued support, should continue to be a star student. If Copper could speak, he would say, 'don’t let my traditional Bassett Hound knees fool you, I can run and play with the best of them! I have so much excitement for you that when you return home, I can’t contain my droopy lips from making the cutest fluttering, vibrating sound of excitement.' His large, adorable ears sometimes get in his food bowl but he doesn't care a bit- this darling boy LOVES to eat!
Copper is looking for an active home with, or without, another playful dog. He would enjoy a fenced yard, however would also do well on leash for potty and walks, so long as he was able to get out often to move and do his business. Copper is crate and leash trained and enjoys to play with and snuggle. He gets along great with respectful kids and adults, of all ages. Copper is a young dog that is still learning about the world around him. He can be naturally protective of his resource items (toys, food, people) with other pets however has been very responsive to positive correction and re-direction from his people and is generally wonderful around other dogs! He will likely be fine with dog savvy cats as well, and just ignored cats when tested.
Potential adopters should have a good understanding of the Bassett Hound breed and have a plan for continued structure, boundaries, and daily activity to help Copper continue to be his very vest self!
