Meet Smokey, the gentle giant who’s ready to steal your heart! ❤️ This five-year-old coonhound hails from the beautiful hills of Tennessee, where he faced challenges that would melt anyone's heart. Smokey arrived confused, frightened, and carrying the heavy burden of being heartworm positive. 🐾 But here’s the good news! With the support of NAWS, all his treatment is covered! What Smokey truly longs for is something you can only find in a loving home: peace, comfort, and a cozy corner to heal. At nearly 80 pounds, Smokey is a big boy with an even bigger heart. He’s incredibly sweet and gentle, radiating gratitude for every bit of kindness that comes his way. Despite the tough journey he’s been on, this affectionate fluff loves short walks and the warm presence of those he trusts. 🥰 He deserves a calm, nurturing environment to help him mend—not the noisy chaos of a shelter. Imagine welcoming this loving soul into your home, where he can stretch out on a soft bed, soak up affection, and experience what real care feels like. If you have a warm home and a nurturing heart, Smokey is ready to give you so much love in return! 💕 We’re in urgent need of a hero—a foster or adopter—to help Smokey heal in a comfortable setting instead of a stressful kennel. Please, open your heart to this gentle giant. He deserves a second chance at happiness, and he's got a world of love to give. To bring Smokey into your life, apply through the Buddy App today!
