Oh, honey, let me introduce you to the magnificent Festus! This gentle giant, weighing in at about 58 pounds and about a year and a half old, is here to steal your heart! 🐾✨ Picture this: a big, playful hound mix who walks like a pro on a leash, wagging that tail like it’s the best day ever. 🎉 Now, let’s get real for a second. Festus is currently heartworm positive, but don’t you worry! His treatment is in full swing, and his last treatment will wrap up in January 2026. The wonderful news is that if you choose to adopt this sweet boy, his treatment costs are covered! How amazing is that? 🎁🏥 Also, he’s fully up to date on shots, neutered, microchipped, and on flea and tick prevention. Talk about a well-rounded pooch! Festus has a past that tugs at the heartstrings; he came to us as a stray, with a couple of puncture wounds that remind us he’s a survivor. But don’t let that fool you! This big sweetheart is too busy basking in the joy of life to hold onto any grudges. He would easily adapt to house training since he prefers not to do his business in his kennel. Isn’t that wonderful? 🏡 Are you looking for a loyal companion who’ll stand by you and be your friend through thick and thin? Festus is your guy! Just remember, being a hound means he might have a little hunting spirit, so if you’re on a farm, a secure fence would be best. This loving animal is new to the rescue, so you can bookmark Festus in the Buddy App to check back in for more updates and information! Trust me, you don’t want to miss out on the chance to bring this lovable guy into your life! Apply today to adopt Festus through the Buddy App! 🐶❤️
