Archie's Story

If you're looking for a walking companion or a best friend for your current fur baby, look no further. Archie is a 3-year-old harrier/hound mix, weighing approximately 50 pounds. He is up to date on shots, heartworm negative, neutered, potty trained and walks pretty good on a leash. He is eager to learn and loves his belly and paw rubbed. And soft sofas with pillows! Archie is a social pup and very dog friendly. He was the shelter's dog tester. He is good with kids and adults. He can scale a 3 1/2 foot fence, so he needs a 4 foot or higher fence. He is a fairly active dog and would enjoy an active family to care for him. He could be an only pup too, but would likely do better with a companion. He has been around small dogs as well as large dogs without a problem. Cats are unknown. If you're interested in this handsome guy, please fill out an application at https://www.bassethoundrescuemd.org/adoption-form-page . Archie is currently in Annandale, VA with his foster parents, but transportation can be arranged to his furever home.

Basset Hound Rescue League's Adoption Policy
*We prefer homeowners (town homes, short-term rentals, roommate situations, condos, and apartments are often not approved) *Dog should not be left alone for 7+ hours a work day without access to the backyard (e.g. doggy door or a dog walker or a neighbor that can walk the dog) *The dog will sleep indoors at night *A fenced yard is required for hound breeds *Swimming pools must be fenced in *Children eight years or older are preferred (specifically Basset Hounds -- as dogs get older they often do not get along with very young children and this is the #1 reason that dogs are given up to us) *Stairs need to be blocked off for short legged breeds to prevent back injuries The above requirements are especially enforced with Basset Hounds, however, exceptions can be made for other breeds.
