Petey

If you love hounds... you're about to be fully obsessed.<br/>Petey is a beagle/hound mix with the funniest, silliest personality - playful, goofy, and full of those classic hound quirks. His nose is always on a mission, his expressions are hilariously dramatic, and he has a way of making you laugh without even trying.<br/>But underneath is a really tender, really sweet boy who just wants to feel safe and loved.<br/>Petey was saved from euthanasia at a rural shelter after he was diagnosed with heartworm disease. He's currently undergoing treatment (which we are covering fully), and what he needs now is the thing that truly changes everything - a home.<br/>Petey is currently living in a foster home and has been wonderful with other dogs. He truly does well living in a pack and would thrive in a home with other dogs, especially other hounds and with someone who understands the breed. He's the kind of dog who is happiest when he has dog friends around him, and he would be a great match for a hound-savvy household who appreciates all the funny, loveable "hound stuff" - and knows how to manage it too.<br/>Petey is looking for an adult-only home with experienced adopters who can help him navigate some of his quirks and big feelings. We don't know what happened before he came to us, but loud noises and sudden movements can really startle him, and when he gets overwhelmed he may need space to decompress.<br/>He is a sensitive dog who needs people who will respect his boundaries, keep things calm and predictable, and help him build confidence over time. He's not a match for cats or small animals (they're simply too tempting), and because that hound nose can lead him into trouble, his adopter needs to be exceptionally responsible and safety-minded with doors, leashes, and supervision.<br/>Petey is truly a special boy - funny, sweet, loyal, and so deserving of a home that understands him and lets him finally exhale. He is in a foster home, so if you'd like to meet him, please fill out an application at www.mlar.org/adopt-application<br/><br/>Sweet Petey is in a foster home so please fill out an application online for him at www.mlar.org/adopt-application and we will get in touch with his foster mom to set up a meet!<br/>Kennel #2857
