About Tom

Adoption Fee: $90
Treeing Walker Coonhound
Age: Puppy
Sex: Male

Meet Tom he was picked up with his buddy Bob, starving and in need of medical attention. He had bad open wounds all over his body, very skinny and depressed. Both he and Bob have recovered amazingly quick, all sores healed, and have put on a great amount of weight. He has become a happy, healthy, fun-loving dog. He needs to find a home as soon as possible as we are over capacity and have dogs needing to come in for our help as he and Bob did. Tom is definitely more hound-oriented and loves to hunt. He is higher energy than Bob but will lay down and cuddle with you when inside. So far Tom has shown us he is great with people, most likely good with kids although he is a big playful hound full of energy which could be intimidating to small children. Unfortunately, he is not good with cats as he is a big hunter. He is leash trained, and for the most part house trained within a reasonable amount of time as most dogs would be. Tom would make a great family pet as long as there is a fenced yard or way to confine him as he would go out hunting all the time if just left loose. Like most hounds, his listening skills are on the dull side and therefore could use some work and obedience training would make him a much better family member. If you are looking for a nice young hunting dog he would make an excellent prospect. He has a great nose, voice and with a little work could be a very fun serious hunting partner. Hound trials would also be something Tom could excel in with some proper training. Please help us fine him home soon so we can help these other dogs needing our immediate attention. If you would any more information, pictures, videos or would like to meet Tom in-person contact us and we will be happy to help get you what you need to find him a home soon. Transportation assistance may be possible as well. Thanks for any and all help.
