ABOUT WINSTON
Winston is a 2-year-old Hound mix who's looking for a foster or foster-to-adopt home! He came to HAP from a high-intake shelter in Tennessee, where he was found wandering as a stray. Despite being severely underweight, Winston is an incredibly sweet, resilient boy who absolutely loves people. We would love to see him thrive in a foster home, where he can regain his strength and weight! True to his hound nature, his nose is always busy exploring the world around him. He gets along well with other dogs and even cats, making him a great fit for a multi-pet home. Winston would thrive with an active family who can give him plenty of opportunities to sniff, explore, and eventually romp and play, he'd especially love a yard once he's feeling better. With a little time, care, and good nutrition, Winston is sure to blossom into a happy, energetic companion!
**Winston has met children and been friendly, but it is important that adopters with small kids understand Winston's situation before adopting. We believe in full transparency with our adopters, so while he has not displayed any food aggression, we believe if a child was on his level with a snack...Winston would take said snack. Not aggressively, but because he was starved, he is a foodie and gets very, very excited for snacks.
If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.
