Heartbroken to post this but looking for an amazing home for our Bloodhound.
I honestly never thought I’d be making a post like this.
Pluto has been part of our family for the last 4 years after we rescued him from a shelter when he was about 9 months old. He’s grown up with our two young kids, our other dogs, and even our cats. He’s an incredibly loving dog, amazing with children, great with other dogs, and happiest when he’s around people.
We were told he’s likely a Bloodhound/Rhodesian Ridgeback/Coonhound mix, and he definitely has a lot of classic hound personality traits. He’s social, affectionate, curious, and loves being active and outdoors.
Our family is preparing for a major cross country move related to our son’s medical condition, and after a lot of difficult conversations, we’ve had to face the reality that we may no longer be able to give Pluto the exercise, space, consistency, and attention he truly deserves long term.
This is not something we want to do at all. We love this dog deeply and there’s a tremendous amount of heartbreak and guilt attached to even considering it. But we also love him enough to know he deserves a life where he can really thrive.
More than anything, we’re hoping to find Pluto a home where he’ll have room to run, interaction with people and other dogs, and owners who will truly make him part of the family the way we have.
We are absolutely willing to work with the right family on transportation or an out of state relocation if needed for the right home. If you think you may be a good fit for Pluto or have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
