Meet Hank! This delightful 2-year-old Beagle/Basset mix is the very definition of heart and soul wrapped in fur! At 62 pounds of pure adorableness, he’s got a way of making the world brighter with his charming, albeit shy, personality. 🌟 You see, Hank is a bit of a wallflower originally, a sensitive spirit who needs a gentle touch and some extra love before he’ll let you in on all his snuggly secrets. He’s on a journey of trust, and once he’s through that door, he transforms into the most affectionate cuddle bug by your side! 🐶💖 Hank absolutely adores lounging on the couch, indulging in playtime with his toys, and occasionally sneaking in a good chew on his favorite bone. When it’s time for a snooze, there’s nobody better than this cozy companion by your side. But let's be real; Hank is still learning about life! He can get spooked by the hustle and bustle of the city; loud noises make him jump. So, if he's not melting into a comfortable nap inside, he prefers a calmer environment where he can take his time adjusting. Lots of love and patience will go a long way with this darling! You may find him pulling back when new people approach on the street or shyly retreating at home, but with the right family, he will blossom into the loyal companion you've always dreamed of. The potential for connection is enormous once he feels safe! Hank is looking for an adopter who may have some experience with dogs, as he still needs to polish up on obedience and would benefit from ongoing socialization. He’s a loving boy who respects hands and feet, but he’s still working on not chewing on things he shouldn’t—oops! Don’t worry though; with some tricks training practice and plenty of puzzle toys to challenge his mind, he’ll be a clever little guy in no time! 🧠✨ Hank is open to meeting cool kids aged 12 and up, but they’ll need to be gentle with him during his adjustment. He prefers to be in a home that’s peaceful and not overly chaotic, and he might just be the perfect match for a couple or a gentle person who can help guide him through his nervous moments. 💕 Also, Hank is crate trained and quite calm while settling into his cozy space, but he still needs some TLC to become fully house trained. He’s working hard on that, and with the right routine and encouragement, he’ll get there! Now, here's what you need to know: Hank is a shy soul who will thrive in a warm, nurturing environment. He definitely deserves a slow and loving approach to help him shine! So, if you're interested in bringing home this precious pup, make sure to **apply through the Buddy App**! While other pets may be met anywhere, adorers must meet and adopt Hank in person. 🐾 💕 Don’t wait, this boy is ready to steal your heart!
