Beau's Story

Meet Beau <br/><br/>If Beau could talk, he'd probably tell you, "I've spent enough time tied down... now I'm making up for it one sniff at a time!"<br/><br/>This handsome 5-year-old, 75-pound Treeing Walker Coonhound didn't have the easiest start in life. Beau came from a home where he spent much of his time chained to a pole. But despite that sad beginning, he hasn't let it dim his love for life.<br/><br/>Today, Beau is all about freedom, fresh air, and following his nose wherever it leads. Give this boy a yard and he'll happily zoom around, dig a few "important excavation projects," and investigate every scent Mother Nature has left behind. Once his detective work is complete, he's perfectly content to stretch out in the grass and supervise the neighborhood from his favorite outdoor observation post.<br/><br/>Beau gets along nicely with other dogs in the adjoining play yards... as long as they understand one thing: he's a sniffer, not a sprinter. While the other dogs may be training for the Doggy Olympics along the fence line, Beau is busy solving mysteries like, "Who walked through here three days ago?" and "Why does that bush smell suspiciously like squirrel?"<br/><br/>On walks, his nose occasionally takes over the navigation system, so he can pull a little on leash when he catches an interesting scent trail. After all, every walk is a new investigation.<br/><br/>And when the workday is done? Beau transforms from Master Detective into Professional Couch Snuggler. He loves curling up beside his people for some well-earned relaxation.<br/><br/>One warning: if you put treats in your pocket, Beau WILL know. Instantly. You may think you've hidden them. Beau disagrees. His case files remain open until every last snack has been located and confiscated.<br/><br/>Because Beau didn't always know where his next meal would come from, he can be a little protective of his food and high-value treats. He does best when mealtime is his own special time and his people respect his space while he enjoys his snacks. With a little understanding and management, Beau is happy to focus on what he does bestbeing a loyal companion and expert cuddle buddy.<br/><br/>Beau has spent enough of his life tied to a pole. Now he's ready for a family who will let him explore, sniff, nap, cuddle, and finally enjoy the life every dog deserves.<br/><br/>Could you be the happy ending this sweet detective has been searching for? <br/><br/>Helen O. Krause Animal Foundation, Inc. (HOKAFI)<br/>813 South Baltimore Street<br/>Dillsburg, PA 17019<br/>Kennel License #3467

Helen Krause Organization (HOKAFI)'s Adoption Policy
We are not a same day adoption facility because we believe in matching pets with the perfect homes and vice versa! We treat each adoption as a case by case basis as each animal we care for is unique in their own way. We like potential pet parents to apply in person after meeting their desired new friend. We do not have application fees but we do have adoption fees that are determined by a pet's age. We do home visits with dog adoptions to help your new friend settle in. Please feel free to call us to make an appointment or come to our open adoption hours to meet our furry friends in need of homes. Visit us Saturdays 12:00 noon to 3:00 p.m.
