About Buck

Buck is a delightful 3-year-old Basset Hound, embodying the spirit of affectionate companionship. Weighing around 50 pounds, he is the epitome of canine comfort, with a low-riding build perfect for snuggling. His sweet and friendly demeanor makes him a friend to everyone—people, dogs, and even children. While he's encountered cats, his interactions have been notably indifferent, so we can't definitively say he's cat-friendly. Living outside previously means Buck will need some help with house training. He knows the basics but will thrive with regular outings and patient guidance to refresh those skills. Buck's gentle nature brings warmth to any home. He’s calm, social, and eager for cuddles, demonstrating an interesting mix of playfulness and an appreciation for downtime on the couch. At his age, Buck has outgrown the more chaotic puppy phase but still maintains a curious and spirited attitude. He doesn't demand much—just a bit of space on the couch and the love of a caring human. If you're ready to make room in your life for a Basset Hound, Buck could be the perfect buddy. Your new best friend is waiting for you to apply!
