Squiggy's Story

Squiggy is a lovable little 2-year old beagle who wants to be loved. He wants to be with you wherever you are. He warmed up to his foster parents pretty quickly, and is warming up to the other foster dog in the home. <br/><br/>He has lived with other dogs and got along with them, but he is a little jealous of the other foster dog in his new home, especially if he is on the couch with his foster mom and the dog approaches, but he is getting better. They do sleep together now and he is starting to play with her. <br/><br/>Squiggy was a hunting dog who probably was not a good hunter. He is not used to loud noises like traffic, garbage trucks, construction, etc. He does OK on the leash but is a little fearful of being outside because of the noises so he needs secure leashing. He isn't 100% housebroken yet, partly due to his fear of the noises outside, but he can go overnight or for hours without a bathroom break. But he will go out to do his business when he is ready. So far only one accident. <br/><br/>Squiggy gained a lot of weight at the shelter, so he will need to lose close to 10 pounds. We have started working with him but whoever adopts him will need to continue to work on the weight loss. He is healthy, vaccinated, and HW negative. <br/> <br/>Surprisingly, not a fast eater and takes a while to start and finish eating, although he will whine and growl a little if the other foster dog approaches him while he is eating. He will just need time to get used to being a city pet. He will be a great pet for someone he can give all his love to. <br/><br/>For an application go to www.homesfurhounds.org

Homes Fur Hounds, Inc.'s Adoption Policy
1. Once you have identified the dog(s) you are interested in meeting, you must submit an Adoption Application. You can find the application at https://www.homesfurhounds.org 2. Be patient. We occasionally have a high volume of applications, especially on puppies. 3. If your application is approved you will be contacted to arrange a meet and greet with the dog(s) you are interested in meeting. Whenever we have more than one applicant who is approved, we set up the meet and greet in the order in which the applications were received. 4. We are a small rescue group and do require home checks. Therefore, we only adopt to VA, NC and MD. Exceptions are made for medically needy or seniors if no qualified applicant is located in our adoption area. 5. We do keep applications on file for 6 months, so even if you aren’t selected for a particular dog, if you see another dog of interest, let us know and we will consider your application at that time. 6. Please don’t be offended if you are not selected to adopt. We try to match the dog with the BEST home for them. Just because you weren’t selected for a specific dog does not mean you can’t apply for another one. 7. Our adoption fee is $300.00.
