About Nugget

Meet Nugget, a 7-year-old with soulful eyes and a heart that’s been through a lot of change recently. Nugget came to SBR after the only mom he has known entered hospice care and was no longer able to return home to care for him. In the midst of losing both his mom and his canine companion, Nugget has understandably been scared, confused, and searching for stability. Nugget has spent his life as an indoor dog with access to a fenced yard, which he absolutely loves. He enjoys exploring outside and has been known to slip through weak spots in fencing to go on little adventures, so he will need a securely fenced yard to keep him safe. He previously lived with another dog and seems to miss having a canine friend around, often expressing himself with a classic basset howl. He has also lived alongside cats and mostly enjoys chasing them around for fun. We believe Nugget is around 55–60 pounds and likely has “a little something extra” mixed in with all that basset charm. While we are still getting to know him, one thing is clear: Nugget is looking for a patient, loving home where he can feel safe and secure again after so much upheaval in his life. Because he has never lived with children and is unfamiliar with them, an adult-only home would likely be the best fit for him. After everything he’s been through, Nugget deserves a soft place to land and a family to love him through his next chapter.
