He isn’t a model, so hipbones and ribs are not at all becoming on DECKER! This handsome boy came to us in need of some care. Here’s another one that we say was "rode hard and put up wet," but he is very personable, happy to be with us, and is enjoying lots of attention. Of all the hound dogs to come to us, he has picked up the housetraining idea more quickly than any other. On day one, he figured out that we would take him out to potty, and now he will hold everything until he can get outside if he can. His tail has been injured, he had lots of ticks on him, and his feet were swollen, but he’s already feeling better. He could be a twin to another dog in our care, Tater. Maybe you recognize this one? He does love having other dogs around for company!
