ISO Bassett hound... (triColor)?
I have a wonderful Bassett Hound. I love him very much. But He deserves to have someone that can take him for long walks. And let him sit by their side. I found him wondering the neighborhood. Found the owner, she didn't want him because he wouldn't stay in her fence. His name is Roscoe P Coletrain...after the dog on the Dukes of Hazard. He is approxamately three yrs old. Very laid back. Wonderful with old and young, including babies, all other animals. I just got him out of the vet yesterday after 10 days of quarintine. Because my Austrailian Shepherd got out of his electric fence and atempted to kill Roscoe. I am dissabled, I woke to alot of noice. Got outside as quickly as possible to try and break the two up. Roscoe was on a cable on my front porch. He was sleeping and didn't know what hit him. I got in-between the two and got bit on my leg, finger, and foot. But not out of human agression on either dogs. Just fighting for territory on the Austrailians part. Roscoe just happened to be in the path. Both dogs had their shots but the laws in NC. require them to be kenneled for 10 days because I had to go to the hospital because of health issues and the bite was pretty deep.Roscoe did put up a good fight!!! My other dog had to have antibiotics. I love them both but Roscoe is Special! He has been trained to walk with you, He loves to jog also, Sit, Stay, heel, and love ya to death.He will try to shake your hand with his BIG SHORT FEET, and he does do a good job of it. He only barks at sirens or to go to the bathroom. He prefers a fire-hydrant to the yard. He will not be contained away from people. He is a front porch sittin kind of guy. I don't want to give him up but if you can show some sort of info on your vet care and surrounding. I may consider you. He has gotten a cough from being at the vets. So off he goes again this morning. I have stayed up with him all night. I have pictures of him if you are interested. He still like to chew on thing that he know belong to those he loves. And he is a good eater. But Wonderful!!! I haven't had the fund to have him neutered. But I am trying to get some assistance on that. He is Black and white, very long,short and muscle bound. May have some lab in him but mostly bassett.. Long bassett ears. With the turned out feet. He would truly be one loyal companion for anyone that really love Bassetts. He is the only dog on the mail route that the mail man loves. If your interested post you info. Where are you located? Roscoe may not be a trophy winner but he is deffinately a treasure!


God Bless

Reply:Watch the newspapers, they usually have adds for free puppies to a good home. Or try going to stores, a lot of people will give their puppies away at the entrances of stores.
