, over the course of a week, in a rural town. They were sick, many of them with demodex mange (non-contagious, typically seen when animals are severely neglected and their immune systems are depleted), skinny, and terrified. They stayed in that shelter for a month, getting treatment, before ending up on their euthanasia list. When they got out of the car, they leaned on each other for safety and comfort, and tried to hide in the nearest bush anytime outside for the first 3 days. But after those 3 days, they just flourished. Bandit is the tallest of the bunch, but also the most slender. Photos do not do this gorgeous boy justice - you need to see him in person! He physically and personality-wise, lean towards a treeing walker coonhound or pointer. He even points outside with all the great smells in the air! His coat is so silky! He is the king of playtime! He loves to run and wrestle with his siblings and foster siblings. He worked diligently to win each of his foster brothers over. I really thought there was no hope but he was patient and now he even has our grumpy old man running, wrestling, and playing with him. He loves crinkle toys, balls, and nylabones. He likes his crate and knows it equals chew toys, food, nap time or bedtime. He also loves walks and rolling around in grass! He looks athletic and agile, but still with some goofy puppy tendencies. He also loves to watch tv with you at the end of the night! He is crate trained, leash trained, and 95% potty trained. He understands the word “no” and is not destructive at all. He walks wonderfully on leash and is learning basic commands.
