English Foxhound Dogs Available for Adoption in Andover, Massachusetts

**Please read Tito Mellon Hugo Hero's entire profile, which includes a link to the adoption application at the end. Thank you!**

Tito Mellon Hugo Hero (or Tito for short) is a 1 yr-old (4/27), English Foxhound mix, who weighs 50 pounds (as of 2/4/26). This darling pup left that unpredictable stray life in Tennessee behind and eventually found his way to New England! While he'll always love and appreciate his previous home, Tito prefers to live in a home that's cat-free. No hard feelings kitties!

UPDATE: He has come a long way since he got here.

Tito does still struggle with other dogs. He gets very stiff and clearly shows with body language that he is not really interested. This is with both males and females. Tito is easily corrected and can walk by other dogs without paying attention. Tito should be your one and only dog. He does not do well in a kennel run and does prefer a crate. Right now he is in a 42 inch and it is covered at night.

Tito has recently completed a 2-week training session. He is a very obedient and eager to please pup. What has Tito learned? Sit, Stay, Heel, Come, Wait, and Place. Tito is fully crate trained.

Tito has a funny personality and is very loving. He loves to play with his toys and has a few favorite chews. Tito is a star at getting attention from people who walk by and does love a good bum scratch.~~


When Tito isn't snuggling his way into your heart (literally), his favorite activities include zoomies, running through the woods, playing tug, chewing on his toys and unknotting short ropes. What? He's a Dog Scout-in-training! While he currently lives inside, he has access to a fenced yard. This energetic boy gets along with everyone he meets: men, women, even teenagers (which is saying a lot!). Because of Tito's playful energy, he'd be best with active families who have older kids (middle school and up) that can keep up with him. Tito's not a fan of staying home alone for long periods of time, so bonus points if you're at home living the hermit life!

Since he's still young, Tito has been undergoing obedience training and knows commands like "sit, no, come, let's go, and wait!" He'll need extra patience from his future family as he gets excited and might use his mouth to get your attention. Tito is super motivated by food (especially chicken and peanut butter so bribes might be the way to go to help this pup learn positive behaviors!) While Tito is housebroken, he'll still need a little more help adjusting to potty training once he finds his fur-ever home and asks that his future family has some understanding. He's not a fan of car rides and gets car sick, but let's be real, we've all been there! Tito will never judge your crazy driving, but he will definitely judge your sense of direction!

This spirited pup is not a fan of loud noises (vacuums, running kids, seeing people rough house, etc) so he'd prefer a nice, chill home please and thank you! While he slept in the same room as his humans, he has experience being crated and will use it every night or periodically throughout the day.

Tito does best with supervision and can't find wait to find the home of his dreams! He hopes it'll be you!

All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be.

PLEASE READ: If a dog is listed, then s/he is currently available for adoption. Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid. If you are considering a dog but don't apply right away please make sure to search for the dog by name if the link you have no longer works.

Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted. To learn more about our *shelterless* rescue, adoption fees, and procedures, review the list of Frequently Asked Questions on our website at WWW.GDRNE.COM.

The English Foxhound is a stately and athletic breed known for its exceptional hunting abilities and pack mentality. With a gentle and friendly nature, these dogs are typically good with people and other animals, making them ideal companions for active families. Their strong sense of smell and unwavering determination make them excellent hunting partners, often used in packs to chase down prey. English Foxhounds require regular exercise and stimulation to thrive, and their distinctive baying voice is a hallmark of this classic breed.
