Boudreaux English Coonhound Mix Amelia, OH

Boudreaux ("Boo") is a beautiful 1-2 year old American English Coonhound. He came to our rescue after spending most of his early life tied to a chain and given little attention. We are sure this is why he is very shy and takes time to get used to new surroundings. He is slowly learning to be a more confident dog. Once he gets to know you he is incredibly sweet and loves to be petted.

In the house Boudreaux is very quiet and will seek out a place to call his own and then curl up and stay there. He can easily be crated if you make his special indoor place a crate. He is housetrained and is fine with kids. Loud noises and sudden movements will scare him and cause him to retreat to his safe place.

Boudreaux is wonderful with other dogs and has spent hours at a dog park playing with dogs both large and small. He has not been around cats but in an indoor environment we think he would be okay with pet cats. Outdoors he has some prey drive when it comes to squirrels and will give the signature coonhound baying bark if he happens to scare one into a tree. Boo likes riding in a car and can be leash walked but he does tend to pull. Some type of no-pull harness makes it easier to walk him. Boo is a gentle soul that needs a patient home with another dog or dogs for company. Since he is a large animal, a fenced yard would be best.
