Basset Hound and Beagle Dogs Available for Adoption in Kennesaw, Georgia

A SWEET, FRIENDLY FELLOW: Approx. 7 years old / Approx. 47 lbs.

Hi there, I’m John Henry! I was adopted from Mostly Mutts in 2021 and had a wonderful home with a beloved Mostly Mutts volunteer, but sadly she passed away, and we all miss her very much. Thankfully, I’m in a great foster home with someone who knows me well while Mostly Mutts helps me on my journey to finding another loving home, for which I am so very grateful. I came back with another dog that was also adopted from Mostly Mutts, but we do not need to be adopted together – though if you happen to be looking for two sweet dogs, please consider us together. Her name is Delilah.

• OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: My foster reports that I’ve been great with the dogs I’ve met, and I currently live with two other dogs, so if you have a dog already, let’s meet and see if we can be pals, too. / Cats unknown / I lived with kids in the past and my foster reports that I have done very well with kids, too. So, if you have kids 10+, let’s meet and best no toddlers that I may bump over.

• PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: In my foster home, I’m described as a friendly, active, sweet, and fun fellow who will make a wonderful family companion. /My energy level is approx. 6-8.

• SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: My foster reports that I’m good with my commands, so let’s work together and see how many I know. They are currently working with me on a little barking – understandable with my recent loss. Mostly Mutts offers free lifetime training classes for all their adopted dogs, so let’s continue my training together. / I have not needed to be crated. / My potty manners are good in my foster home.

• LIKES/DISLIKES: I love playing fetch with tennis balls and being active with my family, and belly rubs are definitely high on my favorites list, too! While not required, a fenced yard would be wonderful for all our fun play sessions together. / I’m not a fan of fireworks or being restrained during vetting, and like all dogs, I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, exercise, and training.

• MEDICAL: I'm current on vaccinations, micro-chipped and neutered. I just had a dental cleaning so my mouth is fresh again - and not the talking-back kind of fresh!

I am looking for a home where I will be loved as a cherished family member! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.

The Basset Hound is a unique and recognizable breed known for its long body, droopy ears, and soulful eyes. Originating from France, they were originally bred for hunting small game like rabbits due to their keen sense of smell and sturdy build. Despite their laid back and affectionate nature, Basset Hounds are also persistent and independent thinkers, which can make training a bit challenging. With their low energy levels and love for lounging, they make wonderful companion dogs for families seeking a loyal and easygoing pet.

The Beagle is a beloved breed known for its friendly nature, curious personality, and distinctive howl. These small to medium sized dogs are incredibly sociable and get along well with both humans and other pets. Beagles are curious and energetic, always eager to follow a scent with their incredible sense of smell, making them excellent hunting and tracking dogs. Their short coat is easy to maintain, and they are adaptable to various living environments, making them popular companions for families and individuals alike.
