Coonhound-Unknown Mix Dogs For Adoption in Thomasville, NC, USA

Posted Breed: Coonhound / Mixed (short coat). Nikko is a sweet, loving Treeing Walker Coonhound who we rescued 5 years ago after being abandoned as a puppy and on his own for the first year of his lif

e. He's crate trained ( actually puts himself to bed in his crate when he's tired at night!) and house-trained. If he has to go outside of his normal schedule, Nikko excels as placing his head in your lap and laying on the puppy eyes. Nikko has been a sweet, smart and funny companion for our 10-year-old. When they chase each other around, Nikko loves to "hide" behind trees, thinking we can't see him, and learn new tricks when treats are involved. At 45 pounds, he sometimes thinks he's a lap dog and loves to snuggle. If you have a hoodie with a front pocket, he'll put his nose in the pocket and go right to sleep. We love this good boy but have made the tough decision to regime Nikko, as he is not thriving here. We have noticed he has some triggers ( anxious and overstimulated) specific to certain situations in our very crowded neighborhood that I would love to speak with you about over the phone. He absolutely thrives in rural settings, and we would love to find a home that has that for him where he can have a large space to run and be active. ~Adoption donation $ . All vetting is up to date. Microchipped and neutered. Also on flea/tick and heartworm preventative. Visit .ruffloverescue/adoption and fill out an application to make this pup a member of your family

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
