Booker is an eight year old tri color male rescued as a stray from a shelter in the Dayton area. Whatever life he lived before rescue wasn't an easy one. He arrived skinny and filthy and was treated for an assortment of worms. He was loaded with fleas and his ears were obviously not cleaned this year. Booker loves to do two things; sleep and eat. He lives with 4 other male bassets and pretty much ignores them unless they start playing and then he will happily get up and join in. He loves his squeaky toys and will carry them to different areas of the house and yard squeaking away. Booker is house broken and figured out how to use the dog door very quickly. He is also crate trained and in his foster home is crated for feeding time due to his extreme love of food. If you raise your voice and he thinks you're correcting him his teeth will chatter uncontrollably and he will wander away with his head very low. Booker would make someone a very loving companion. He isn't great on a leash. He has a bit of "bassitude" and it's beneath him to walk on the end of a leash. Unhook him and he will happily walk at your side, leash him and he will stop dead in his tracks. Booker needs to go to the home of an experienced basset lover who can appreciate the charm and stubborn behavior of these sweet souls. He would do fine as an only dog.
