Story
Hi, I’m Daisy – Your Future Queen! I’m an 8-year-old, slightly plump Basset Hound looking for a family to spoil me with love, cuddles, and treats fit for royalty. My foster family is helping me with my weight loss journey, and I’ll need a family that’s willing to keep me on track with healthy meals and exercise.I am fully house-trained. I love being outside, exploring at my own pace, or just soaking up the sun. I need a home with a fenced yard (no invisible fences, please) since walks aren’t really my thing. I prefer to move at my own speed. I do best in a peaceful neighborhood because loud noises really scare me. No city, apartment, or condo life for me—I’m all about the quiet life. I am crate-trained and sleep quietly there through the night. I love cats and I would do well with cat(s) that get along with dogs. I sleep with the cat in my foster home sometimes. I get along with other dogs, but I need time to adjust to a new environment and can sometimes be reactive toward other dogs. So, BROOD recommends a home without other dogs due to the adjustment period I need. I like routines and will put myself to bed at night in my crate sometimes. I’d do best in a home with kids 12 or older who know to leave me alone when I am sleeping. If you’re looking for a lovable, quirky, and food-loving queen to rule your home, I’m the Basset for you! My adoption fee is $200.00.**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. 11/19/2024
