Oyster - Basset Hound and Beagle Dog for Adoption in Charlotte, North Carolina

Meet Oyster, a 3-year old, 44 pound, beagle and basset hound mix with a sweet, easygoing personality! This delightful boy gets along wonderfully with other dogs and loves nothing more than exploring the backyard or taking a pleasant neighborhood walk. Once his outdoor adventures are complete, Oyster’s favorite place to be is curled up on the couch right beside his foster mom, soaking up all the pets and affection he can get. Being both house and crate trained, he is a well-mannered companion who will make an effortless and seamless addition to a loving household. Oyster is a total gentleman in public and has done great around children. In his foster home, he finds chasing the resident cat to be a fun game, even if the cat doesn’t quite agree! Thankfully, he doesn't actively seek the cat out to bother her, so gentle supervision is all he needs. If you are searching for a chill, friendly, and affectionate guy to complete your family, look no further than Oyster!

If you are interested in adopting Oyster, please submit an inquiry directly to Greater Charlotte SPCA by visiting charlottespca.org/adopt. The adoption amount is a suggested donation of $200 to $300 dollars based on the pet's age.

**Because our rescue is composed entirely of volunteers, local applications will take precedence. We will accept out of town applications, but any family is responsible for coming to Charlotte to complete a meet and greet. All out of town applicants will also have to be willing to drive to Charlotte to pick up the pet as soon as they are approved to adopt. **

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.
