Captain Homed

Captain 1/10/17

Captain is the quieter of the two brothers and tends to be a little bit shy with men sometimes. He is improving daily and is very loving and good natured. Someone could have a lot of fun with Captain…. or maybe Timmy too!

Sadly returned due to change of circumstances – words from previous owner 15/6/22

Captain aka Billy is such a gentle boy and has been in a home for 20 months. He is completely house trained and is great with kids. He would prefer to be with another hound, as he lost his brother Patch recently and since then not been doing so well on his own. He is fine with other dogs but I’d just keep an eye on small dogs if they start jumping up at him. He loves to play ball in the garden and sleeps it off on the sofa. Keep food off the counter…he once ate 7 cooking apples and a bunch of bananas!! He is extremely food orientated!
When out on the lead, he really doesn’t like loud bangs…eg walking past the bin lorry… So we just cross the road or something and give him reassurance; he was never like that when he was walking out with his late brother though. He can be left for up to 4 hours ..but hide your shoes!! He has started howling and whining recently when I’m out but that’s because he was used to being with Patch and not completely on his own.
