About Hank

Hank is a three-year-old neutered male Treeing Walker Coonhound mix who came to the shelter after being surrendered by his previous owner. He's a big, enthusiastic dog who doesn't quite realize his own size, so he’ll need some guidance and consistency to master his manners—especially not tugging on the leash, which improves a lot with a proper training collar. On arrival, Hank was overweight and is now on a managed diet, so adopters should be mindful of keeping up his healthy routine. Anyone interested in Hank should have a solid grasp of what living with a hound entails. If you have children or another dog at home, a meet-and-greet is required before Hank heads home.
