The Madison County Humane Society sent
out a call for help. They were overrun with hounds that had been
dumped at the end of hunting season. After talking with Vik
at Michigan Coonhound Rescue, it was decided that we would foster
and place Jethro, a gentle and sweet foxhound. John and Brian
drove to the shelter in Virginia to get him. Jethro's name
became Harry on the way back to New Hampshire and John was already
hinting that he thought Harry should stay. Harry has been very busy since our last update finding ways to entertain himself. He has developed a fondness for visiting the local pub, where he gets into all sorts of trouble. To read more about what kind of trouble Harry has gotten into lately, please visit our Hound Tales pages. |
