Bloodhound / Great Pyrenees / Mixed : : Male : : Adult : : X-Large
PLEASE NOTE! Unless stated otherwise, our dogs and puppies are located in Arkansas, and transported to the north/northeast once adopted. We do occasionally have dogs/puppies placed in foster homes in the north/northeast. In the cases where the pet is somewhere other than Arkansas, it will be noted beside the name of the pet.
11/25/11 Virgil is a 4 year old male Bloodhound/Great Pyrenees mix. He is such a perfect mix of the two breeds. He has the adorable bloodhound eyes and soft floppy ears, and a pyrenees body type. He loves to cuddle and loves nothing more than to be petted and loved on. He is an indoor dog and loves spending time just hanging out on the couch, with his family. Virgil would do best in a home with older children, or with no children. He loves people and attention, but the family's 1 year old makes him nervous and we want Virgil to be happy! Virgil is great with other dogs and cats as well. His family is rehoming him due to Virgil's nervousness around their young child. This is what his mom says about him: We love Virgil so much and have loved having him in our family. Unfortunately we have to find him a new family to love him just as much as we do. We have a 15 month old daughter and busy schedules and we just don't have the time to give him the attention he absolutely deserves. It's not fair to him and breaks our hearts to know he isn't as happy as he could be. Also, he doesn't do too well with our young daughter. He has never bit her or harmed her in anyway, but she's at the age where she is hyper, running around and doesn't know personal space. She just wants to be in his face and on top of him all the time and that makes Virgil nervous and he doesn't like it. A big nervous dog around a 15 month old makes me nervous! It's okay for him to be around children, just not little children that are in his face all the time. As long as the child knows to give him his space and not be all over him all the time, he will be fine! Other than that he does well with all people. We are trying to avoid putting him in a shelter at all costs. He deserves a loving home and we hope to find him one as soon as possible.
