Eeyore (Turlock)

We rescued our boy, Hank (formerly know as Eeyore) on Memorial Day 2024. This spry happy boy took some time to adjust to his surroundings. When we brought him home, he sniffed every inch of his new palace, almost as if he was memorizing his new world. His big floppy ears dragged along the floor, his nose sniffing the corners of the walls, the underside of the pillows, and barrelling through the rugs, dog toys, laundry and blankets with every sniff. When this big-earred wide-eyed droopy face dog finally decided that we smelled like "home," he perked up, looked at my husband and I, and then proceeded to jump up, lick our faces, nibbled on our hands and ran around like a maniac with his new sister. He likes to pounce on what he wants like a panther stalking his prey - except the 'prey' is often my husband's socks that were left on the floor. Hank, our penny-colored Basset, likes to barrel into me when I get home from work, so excited to see me. He licks my hands, happy to have me home, and then in his woof-woof way, tells me all about his day and how many squirrels he chased, how many socks he hid and how much he missed me. This handsome boy is more than a dog; he was the missing piece of my heart. He is loving, charming, curious, loves his sister, gives the best snuggles, cuddles, and loves socks. He plays easily with other dogs, and he was the best decision I ever made; even my husband agrees that he was a better choice than saying "yes" to him :) Thank you GGBR for letting me take this sweet boy home and making him a part of our lives and home. Here is a picture of the most gorgeous and sweetest boy a mother could ask for! Pics don't do him justice .. His entire personality is so wonderful... He is so goofy and funny and mischievous, and spoiled and silly. I love my babies so much. --Beth B., 09Jan2025 [Eeyore, adopted 08Jun2024]
