About Chestnut

Chestnut is one of six adorable puppies looking for a forever home. At just about 3 months old, this little guy appears to be a mix of Black Mouth Cur and Hound. Rescued from the Hamilton Cemetery, Chestnut and his siblings were initially scared and injured, but they’ve come a long way in a short time. Now, they’re full of energy and love to play, cuddle, and explore their surroundings. Early signs of potty training are evident, as they've begun to use a specific corner in their kennel and prefer going outside when they can! Chestnut has received his second round of puppy shots and has been dewormed and treated for fleas and ticks. While he can't be neutered yet due to his young age, potential adopters will need to commit to that once he’s old enough. If you’re ready to offer a loving home to a playful pup, please reach out to Hamilton Animal Control at 254-499-2814. Let’s help Chestnut find his perfect match!
