Hello Hank 1 year ago

On Monday we drove down to Rocky Mount to meet a 2 year old basset hound who was in the Animal Control Shelter. He was awesome, so he came home with us.

On Wednesday we took Hank to get checked out by the vet. Seeing as we picked him up after spending almost week in the shelter we were worried that he may have been left to roam the streets because he had heartworms or some other nasties.

He does have a bit of a respitory infection, but everything else checked out fine. His joints are fine, he’s free of heartworms, his teeth and gums are good and he’s not overweight.

Turns out he’s happiest when I work on the couch and he flops down in front of VH1 Classic.

He’s a ridiculously mellow, healthy, temporarily snotty pooch who loves classic rock. Rad.



Adoption is the way to go 1 year ago

For us, at least.

I hate to think that there are awesome dogs out there who aren’t getting the love they deserve, so rather than just go for a puppy we’ve decided to adopt when it’s time to find my hound.

Hopefully either the Carolina Basset Hound Rescue or the SPCA of Wake County will have something to put me out of my misery.
