About Simpson

Meet Simpson, a charming brindle hound mix with a big heart and even bigger paws. He's an affectionate and goofy young guy, currently 7 months old, eager to make friends with everyone—humans of all ages, other dogs, and even cats. Right now, Simpson is learning some house manners; he’s almost house trained but will need a bit more help with that. He requires a home where his humans can be around for much of the day, as he shouldn't be left alone for more than 5 hours at a time. Simpson's playful nature and social spirit make him a delightful companion, and he's ready to grow into the wonderful boy he's meant to be.
