Meet Thelma, the spirited little Bagel girl (that's a delightful blend of Basset Hound and Beagle 🐶) who is ready to steal your heart! This dainty dynamo has clearly experienced life working as a hunting dog, often living outdoors and held in a pen. But don’t let her petite frame fool you – she is strong and full of energy! 💪 Now, don’t you just adore a dog that loves couch snuggles? Thelma is a true cuddle bug who absolutely thrives on belly rubs and pets from her favorite humans. However, when outside without supervision, her inner rabbit hound comes alive! She'll dash off with that nose to the ground, sniffing out adventure like nobody's business. If she escapes the backyard, you might find her exploring the neighborhood, so it’s crucial to keep a close eye on her. But here’s the good news: she’s a superstar when you’re with her! A simple call and she’ll happily trot back inside – it seems she’s shaping up quite nicely from her past life into a loving companion. 🌈 Thelma journeyed to her rescue after being spotted on a Lost and Found page, and let’s just say, that Kentucky heat was no place for this precious girl! With the help of caring volunteers, she’s learning how to let go of her old ways and embrace her new life. While she is warm and affectionate with her people, she would do best in a home without small animals, as her instincts from her previous life may kick in. But don’t worry – she adores playing with other dogs and is fantastic with people of all ages! 🎉 This sweet girl even recently went on what may have been her first truck ride, and she handled it like a pro. Just keep in mind, she may try to lend a paw at the wheel if you don’t keep her restrained! 🚗❤️ Due to their shared history, it would be best for Thelma to be adopted separately from her sister, Louise, so she can truly embrace her new life as a cherished family member. Are you ready to give Thelma the forever home she deserves? You can apply to adopt this loving little girl through the Buddy App! 🐾💖
