Name:   Addison Martin  

Description:   ~ 2 yrs old ~ 38 lb ~ Fostered in Glen Burnie, MD ~
Addison is an elegant and beautiful girl. She's incredibly loving and sweet, and she always wants to say hello to everyone and every dog on our walks. Honestly, I have never met a sweeter hound. She is interested in cats, but we're not sure if she likes them or if she has other intentions. She can be vocal if she wants you to play with her, and our neighbors love her curious and lively personality.

Addy is hard of hearing, so you have to use a vibrating collar to get her attention. If she is startled, she is not aggressive - she is always happy to see you and the tail starts thumping immediately. We are teaching her hand signals, and she already knows "sit," "down," and "no."

She has lots of energy and would benefit from a family with kids who will romp with her, pet her, and give her lots of attention. She loves playing in the yard and being outside, but will settle down when belly rubs are provided. She also sleeps through the night in her crate.

Addy enjoys meaty treats and chews, and she likes to play with her stuffed toys. Besides her stunning good looks, she is pure sweetness and love. Addy is a gem of a dog!

Update 08/13/18
Her hearing seems to be returning. She still can't hear all sounds or low sounds, but she seems to be recovering. I'm trying to train her with verbal commands now.

Addy is healthy and happy, and she loves to play and romp. One of her favorite activities is gazing out the windows to see people and other dogs going by. She enjoys belly rubs and gets lots of attention from our friends who come over to visit her all the time. They come to see Addy, not us!

Success Story:   Addy has settled in nicely. Her parents alternate working at home so she that she is home alone only 2 days a week (aka, sleeping days).
Addy has tons of energy and loves to go on long walks (going in the backyard is okay for a short time, but just doesn't cut it). The up side of this is that her humans are getting pretty fit!
When she's not walking, Addy is a total cuddle bug. She particular likes when we watch movies so she can stretch out and snooze on us for a good couple of hours. Our teenage daughter has really bonded with her, which is great to see.
Thank you BRSM (and Sarah and Justin) for bringing Addy into our lives.

From Addy’s foster mom – Sarah

Addy's parents sent us the attached pictures recently. She looks so comfortable! I love that she still falls asleep across stairs and gets to gaze outside. They adore her and it warms my heart to see that it is the perfect fit for Addy. We miss her and still love her madly.
