DOG'S DESCRIPTION: Meet BERNIE
Last July, Bernie was rescued in heartbreaking condition. This sweet senior Plott Hound was suffering from painful chronic dermatitis affecting his legs, belly, hind end, and ears. He desperately needed medical care, comfort, and stability. Then something wonderful happened. A compassionate woman named Diane saw Bernie's story and knew he belonged with her. She adopted him, gave him the love and care he so desperately needed, and completely transformed his life. For the first time in a long time, Bernie knew comfort, safety, and unconditional love.
Sadly, last month, Diane unexpectedly passed away. Now Bernie has lost the person he loved most and once again finds himself searching for a forever home. Here's what we know about Bernie today:

• 9 years old
• Medium-sized at 45 lbs
• Sweet, affectionate, and loves adult attention
• Enjoys playing with other dogs, but is also happy exploring on his own
• House trained
• Crate trained
• Sleeps through the night
• Very food motivated
• Knows “sit”
• Cats are unknown
• Has not been around children
• Medically stable, but requires ongoing medication for his skin condition

Bernie has already endured pain, uncertainty, and heartbreaking loss. What he deserves now is permanence, comfort, and a family to love him for the rest of his days.
