About Dax
Meet Dax, a two-year-old bloodhound/coondog mix with a wrinkled face and a tail nub that never stops wagging. Weighing in at around 48 pounds, Dax is all charm—his floppy ears and constant energy for wiggly greetings set him apart. A total toy lover, he’s happiest romping around with stuffed animals or squeaky toys. Dax enjoys the company of other dogs, warming up after a bit of shyness, and prefers having a canine friend to share the day with. After burning off energy in the mornings and evenings, he likes nothing more than curling up close for a nap. He’s always up for a walk, a park visit, a car ride, or his favorite treat: a pupscicle. Dax does well with other dogs and would fit best in a home where he isn’t left alone often, especially if he can share it with another dog. He isn’t crate trained and can get into minor trouble if left to his own devices too long. Dax would likely thrive in a household with older, dog-savvy kids willing to join the fun but respect his space. While he has an enlarged heart, his veterinarian isn’t concerned at this time—it’s just another reason his big-hearted personality stands out. Most days, Dax wants simple things: company, a few good play sessions, a treat or two, and plenty of cuddles on a soft lap. He’ll reward your attention with loyalty, gentle affection, and an endless supply of happiness. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
