Meet Ares - our handsome hound with a heart of gold! Ares is a 4.5-year-old Plott Hound mix who's looking for a calm, loving home to call his own. This gentle guy has a laid-back personality and enjoys a peaceful environment. He can be a little reserved at first, but with some tasty treats or a squeaky toy in hand, he'll be by your side in no time! Ares is incredibly smart-he knows his basic commands and loves showing them off for snacks. He's both house-trained and crate-trained, making him an easy addition to the right home. True to his hound nature, Ares thrives outdoors and enjoys exploring new scents and spaces. He'd do best in a home with a fenced yard or with someone who enjoys daily walks and adventures. He can be strong on the leash and will need an owner who is able to handle him. He has had positive interactions with some dogs and may be able to share his home with another as long as it is a good fit. Ares is ready to meet his forever family-could that be you?
