Adoption details

If you're looking for your best friend ever, check me out! They just don’t come any sweeter than me; I guess that’s why my foster dad calls me the Sugar bear!
I’m a 6 year old tri-color beauty with a nice 55 pound build and a clean Basset smile for you! I think I can get along with just about any human – I'm about as friendly as they come. I like other mellow dogs like myself, but I’d rather not have to share too much of the attention. When I make new friends I stay pretty close by their side at first, and as soon as I know I’m loved I’ll fall into my routine.

I love a good walk around the neighborhood, a chance to put my Basset nose to work! I know how to use a dog-door and enjoy exploring the yard and taking a little nap on the lawn. Now if I had my choice, I’d spend the better part of the day just snoozing and lounging around the house. Oh, and an occasional treat or two doesn’t hurt anything!

I recently had a couple of Basset bumps removed, I’m all set on my vaccinations, micro-chipped and I won’t be having any children. Fine by me because I want the attention for myself! I’m not much of a barker, but if I get really excited I’ll let you know. For the most part I’m a calm, sweet girl just waiting for someone who wants all my love and affection. And I’ll expect some in return! My original owners relocated out of the country and decided it was best not to take me so I ended up with the ABHR, where I’ve made some new friends. My foster dad thought I was an adorable sweetheart the first time we met and says that I handled the transition like a champ. I think he’s really going to miss me! Someday soon I want to transition to my forever home with my new best friend!
