Meet Bandito!
Bandito is a 2-year-old Treeing Walker Coonhound mix (we believe) rescued from West Virginia, and he’s a whole lot of love wrapped up in a handsome hound body. Weighing about 45–55 lbs (just a tad overweight), Bandito is fully vetted, neutered, heartworm negative, and kept on Simparica Trio.
This sweet boy is incredibly cuddly and absolutely loves being the center of attention. He’s affectionate, food-motivated, and eager to please—especially if treats are involved! Bandito knows several commands including sit, stay, paw, and circle, and he does great at the dog park.
As a true hound, Bandito has an impressive nose and loves to follow it, which means he’s not an off-leash kind of guy. He walks best on a harness with the leash clipped at the chest and continues to improve with consistent practice. He also loves his voice and isn’t shy about using it—classic hound behavior!
Bandito does wonderfully with our 6-year-old child and is very gentle. He also lives with a cat; while he doesn’t chase her, he does like to “talk” to her from time to time. He enjoys toys, especially ones he can take apart, but cow hooves, bones, and balls are his absolute favorites.
Bandito can be dog selective, so a meet-and-greet with any potential canine housemates would be important.
If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate, talkative companion with tons of personality, Bandito might just be your perfect match. 💙🐶
