Captain Hook Treeing Walker Coonhound Newport, NC

If you're looking for a handsome and loving companion, look no further than Captain Hook! Although initially shy upon arrival, September 3, 2024 at the shelter, this affectionate pup is warming up to shelter life and getting into a routine. Do not think he’s has much leash walking experiences but he should learn pretty quickly. Handsome Captain Hook is always ready to shower you with love, though he can be a bit hesitant around new people. He'll need a little time to come out of his shell, but once he does, you'll have a loyal and affectionate friend for life. He is 4 years old and current on shots. With his adorable looks, gentle nature, and charming personality, Captain Hook is sure to steal your heart in no time.
If you have another dog and are interested in meeting another potential new furry member please bring him or her to the shelter and meet on neutral ground before adopting. No need to shuffle the animals around any more than necessary. Please know that 1 mosquito bite can create heart worms and they can be fatal if not treated. It is VERY important to keep your pets healthy and protected by keeping them on a once a month heart worm and flea/tick prevention. These animals are counting on you as their owner to provide them with lots a love and the proper health care so PLEASE make sure you are aware and prepared before adopting. Owning a pet is an extra expense and responsibility but is so worth every minute and penny you invest in them. They will add lots of joy and unconditional love if given a fair chance.
The shelter is open Mon.-Fri. 10-1, 2-5, Sat. 10-4. Adopt a homeless pet and save a life. If you can not adopt right now come out and volunteer and make a difference in the lives of these animals while they await their FOREVER home.
In order to adopt any of our "bully breeds" there is special paper work that will need to be collected and approved prior to the adoption. We love all of our dogs and want to make sure to place our "bully babies" in homes best suited for them.
