Gumball

Hi, I’m Gumball, an 81⁄2-year-old Coonhound who has spent the last two years in the shelter system. I don’t know what I’ve been through before that, but I do know that I need a very specific kind of home to feel safe and comfortable. I am adult-only, and I thrive in a calm, predictable environment with people who understand dog boundaries — especially those of senior and long-term shelter dogs. Men can make me uneasy, so patience and gentle handling are especially important for me.<br/><br/>I’m getting older, and with age come a few changes. My eyesight may be fading, and my hearing isn’t what it used to be — if I could wear glasses or hearing aids, I’d proudly wear them. I’m currently in a structured foster home working closely with a trainer, and I am truly thriving with routine, consistency, and clear expectations. Structure helps me feel secure, confident, and settled in my daily life.<br/><br/>I enjoy the company of other dogs but I am not cat friendly. I’m neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and ready for a calm, understanding adult home where I can enjoy my golden years with stability and respect.
