Dusty is a retired hunting dog who is happy to live inside now and to have a soft bed. He came to us with wounds on his legs and tail and he was not in great shape over all. He has so much improved: He has no more bladder or eye issues and his coat stopped shedding. He is a very friendly guy who loves kids and other dogs. Dusty is grunting happily to express his pleasure when someone is petting him. He still gets very excited and jumps up to greet people so a household with a toddler may not be appropriate, but he loves kids of all ages and is a gentle soul. He has lots of energy, is pretty strong and would enjoy really long walks and his foster mom says he appears younger than estimated. posted 03/27/19 and updated 01/18/20

Success Story:   Note from his new family :

Dusty has been enjoying life here with us since Sept 2020. He totally loves his sister beagle Woofie Pie(another BRSM rescue) they can often be found snuggling together. He is the keeper of the yard from the rabbits and deer baying like a beagle fog horn to let them know not to mess with his domain. He is the sweetest fella ever, and does the cutest DUSTY DANCE when it’s meal or treat time. He loves a good belly rub and scratch behind those ears. He can be found sleeping with me at night in the big bed and so far he’s not a bed hog at all :)
