From the Foster: Rand is very intelligent and needs to exercise his nose drive daily. He goes to a smaller off-leash dog park where he can track, run, play and meet other dogs for an hour everyday. With this routine, he is the most relaxed guy you could ever meet. This makes him well balanced and willing to chill the rest of the day.

I have found that just yard exercise, dog play and walks is not enough for this Hound. He needs a committed family to seeing that he gets mental stimulation and an off-leash run everyday.

He does have a little separation anxiety when you first leave, but he settles down very quickly.
Another housemate would make this less stressful. He is not kenneled, but he is contained so he cannot counter surf. At night he sleeps on his bed in our bedroom and is content. He loves being near his people and likes kids. He is big and active, so small ones would have to monitored. It would be easy for Rand to unintentionally knock them over.

Please research the Blue Tick Coon Hound Breed.

All dogs are in individual foster homes throughout the Twin Cities.

I f you would like to meet/adopt this animal or anyone else, then please fill out an adoption application at http://secondhandhounds.org/adoption-information/ and the foster(s) will be in touch!  Keep in mind that there may be multiple applicants applying for the same animal(s).  You only need to complete 1 application for multiple animals that you're interested in.
 
Note  - We change an animal's listing to say "PENDING ADOPTION" when they already had a meet and greet with a family who plans to adopt that animal.  We put "NO LONGER ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS" on a listing when an animal has multiple applications in and the foster has asked to stop accepting any more while they review the applications they've already received.

If you would like to be a foster for Secondhand Hounds, then please fill out a foster application,  http://secondhandhounds.org/fostervolunteer-information/fostering-101/  You can choose the type of animal you'd like to foster and we will supply everything you need (food, collar, bowls, crate, etc.) while the animal is in your care.

Thanks for your interest in Secondhand Hounds!
