Coonhound Male Dog for Adoption in North Carolina

About Rocko

Rocko is an 18 month old American English Coonhound and is approximately 80lbs. He was abandoned at my property around this time last year and though I’ve tried my best to give him a good home, I’m not the right human for him. He has lots of energy, which should calm after he's neutered; we've been on a waiting list for a while now. He’s house trained and crate trained, up to date on shots, and is the sweetest doofus you’ll ever meet. He likes kids (he likes to jump though) and tolerates cats (he’s honestly kind of scared of cats but isn’t aggressive towards them). I’m rehoming him for two reasons: I’m a single mom with no real time to give him and he’s an escape artist that likes to head straight for the road…I’m afraid he’ll get run over. He needs room to run and/or someone that can devote time to him. He would make an excellent hiking/adventure buddy. He’s really at the peak time to be trained for hunting or sniffing, and he definitely has a talent for both. He’s up to date on all vaccines and is HW negative (and on preventative). Experience with hound dogs is preferable.
