Description:

English Foxhound Mix Dog for Adoption in Cary, North Carolina, 27512 USNickname: Lincoln Posted Breed: Foxhound / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: $300. Lincoln will require an approved Best Friend Pet Adoption application before you can be considered or meet this handsome boy. The link to the Best Friend Pet Adoption application is: toolkit.rescuegroups/of/f?c=WHMSYCNC FOSTER COMMENTS: Lincoln is a 6-year-old male foxhound mix that currently weighs 62lbs. Lincoln answers to "Linc". He is very friendly to all the people he meets and he is unusually easy-going and not startled by noises. He is such a sweet dog with an adorable derp-y face! Linc was clearly an outdoor dog in the past, but he's a smartie and is learning quickly . He tells us when he needs to go out to use the bathroom, and boy does he love his walks! When we let him out in the yard, he stays on a long lead due to the fence being a bit short, but he seems more interested in coming back inside than escaping at this time. Linc is currently living with another dog (male, 62lbs) with whom he gets along well. He has also had the opportunity to meet other dogs of all sizes while on walks, and Linc has done well with all leash-greets. However, Lincoln does not do well with cats, and any home for him would need to be cat-free. He has not been around children, but his fosters think he'd be okay with a dog-savvy older kid since he's very gentle with all people. Linc is food motivated and has learned "sit," "touch," and is working on "wait." He really enjoys learning new tricks and solving puzzles. He also loves to walk and would benefit from a family who likes to be active. He is a high energy dog, so he needs plenty of time exercising. Linc gets into the silliest moods where he rolls around and snuggles up with the people around him. He loves to get kisses and scratches, and he's really blossoming with continued affection. Linc is crate trained and currently sleeps through the night in his crate, but he would certainly prefer to join us in the human bed. At some point in Linc's life he had some trama to his face. We think it only makes him cuter! He points, and his "alert" position is very nice, his tail curves over his back and he has a nice trot. He is learning what it is like to be part of a family and is starting to relax. He deserves a patient family that will give him unconditional love and consistent support so he can be the best family pet. He is heartworm positive and this will be treated by Best Friend Pet Adoption. He is expected to make a full recovery and is not exhibiting any outward sign of heartworms. Please consider giving Lincoln the love and family he deserves. EVERY DOG HAS A STORY: Lincoln was found as a stray in a rural county. He was either on his own for a while or starved by his owner, common for hunting dogs during the hunting season. BFPA is helping this very sweet boy find his forever home. Some of the information contained in this biography includes approximations based on our expertise and is not guaranteed. We prefer applicants live no further than one hour from Cary NC as our dogs must be seen by a BFPA veterinarian for all medical care prior to adoptions being finalized. Our foster guardians deliver dogs to their new homes for adoption trials and we do home visits to finalize all adoptions. We therefore require applicants to live within an hour's drive of Cary NC. We will consider applicants who live a bit further if they bring Linc back to Raleigh for all medical care. INTERESTED IN ADOPTING LINCOLN ?
