About Dewey

Dewey is a charming 5-month-old, 37 lb male Blue Heeler/Coonhound mix, currently in South Texas but ready to be transported to his forever home. This little guy was found fending for himself after being abandoned, but he quickly adapted to life with his foster family. He’s now crate trained and has made great strides with house training. Dewey loves to romp around the yard, engage with resident cats, and play with his doggy sibling. He’s a sweet and affectionate pup who enjoys showering his humans with kisses. Being a typical hound, Dewey needs a secure, fenced yard where he can explore and burn off his puppy energy, but he also craves downtime cuddles with you. Although he can be a little startled by loud noises, he’s shown bravery and is learning leash manners and basic commands quickly. Dewey gets along well with cats, dogs, and children, making him a wonderful family pet. He’s eager to find a loving home, so consider meeting him soon!
