Yakko - Hound Dog for Adoption in Chattanooga, Tennessee

Yakko may be the quieter one at first, but give him a little time and you’ll discover a sweet, loving boy with plenty of personality. He can still be a little shy in new situations, but once he feels comfortable, he is affectionate, playful, and always ready to be part of the action.

And like any good Yakko, he has something to say about everything. He is a chatty little guy who is happy to keep the conversation going, especially when he has something mischievous in mind. He has a playful streak and just enough troublemaker energy to keep life interesting.

Yakko would do best with a patient family who will give him time to settle in and let his sweet personality come out at his own pace.

Currently in a foster home in Chattanooga, TN, and available for transport to a number of locations within the continental United States.
