Description
Dog Breed: Plott Hound (short coat). Hi! My name is Jekyll and I'm a recent college graduate! Ok, so it’s not college exactly, but let’s not diminish my accomplishments. I just finished an 8 week training program and I feel like a brand new man. I mean, I'm practically a champion walker! I walked all crazy ziggy-zaggy at first but now walks with me are a breeze. I never have potty accidents, and I also know how to sit, lay down, wait, leave it, and go to my “place.” Waiting is really hard because everything is so exciting, but I'll do it because I want to make you happy. I love running around outside and playing fetch with one of my many tennis balls. I love other dogs, and cats too, but I don't think they like me as much as I like them. I'm just so excited to see them! And I want to play! Playing is my favorite. I would LOVE if my new forever home had another canine friend that matches my energy. It would be neat if they liked to do fun stuff outside a lot, too. My foster family found me near their house where I was trying to play with cars(they do not play nicely) so I'm happy that I'm safe and sound now. What do you say, can we be best friends? My adoption fee is $350 locally in Houston, TX or I can be transported out of state for $550 (includes health certificate and travel fee). I am up to date on my vaccines, spay/neuter and microchip.

Overview:
The Plott Hound is a rugged, intelligent breed originating from the mountains of North Carolina, primarily bred for hunting large game like bear and wild boar. Known for their striking brindle coat, which can range from light tan to dark black, they are a medium-to-large dog with a muscular build, powerful legs, and a distinctive deep, resonant bay. Temperamentally, Plotts are loyal, courageous, and generally good-natured, displaying an affectionate side with their families. While they can be excellent companions for active families, their high energy levels and strong prey drive mean they require considerable exercise and secure containment. They are generally not well-suited for apartment living due to their need for space and propensity to vocalize. Health-wise, Plotts are a relatively hardy breed, though like many large dogs, they can be prone to hip and elbow dysplasia, bloat, and eye conditions. Regular veterinary check-ups and a balanced diet are crucial for maintaining their well-being.
