Description:

Meet Uncle Buck!
If you closed your eyes and pictured a dog named Buck, you’d see this guy. Just like his
namesake, this 6-year-old Treeing Walker Coonhound (60 lbs) is lovable, funny, and full
of personality! Uncle Buck has the classic hound charm—friendly with everyone he
meets and always ready to make you smile. He’s past the puppy stage but still has
plenty of energy for walks, sniffing adventures, and playtime.

Overall, he is a very easy-going fellow. Uncle Buck’s is content with a couple of good
walks and some belly rubs. His two favorite evening activities are supervising other
people’s activities, or napping on a dog bed in the warmest corner. When he sees his
food bowl being prepared, he even tippy-taps on his big coonhound toesies in gleeful
anticipation.

His house manners are wonderful- he is extremely quiet and aware of boundaries. Buck
has welcomed guests with affable charm, assuming they have arrived exclusively just to
admire him. (Buck LOVES to have his head and ears scratched.) His top priority is his
own comfort – he takes a few days to learn the routine, but if you show him that he gets
his meals on time, a few leg-stretches (walks or hanging out in the yard) each day, and
most of all: where he can enjoy uninterrupted naps, he will affably fit into any household.
Although he’s mellow to the core, he really does value a good walk. Buck loves being
out in the neighborhood, tail wagging, looking for pets from anyone willing to have their
heart melted. He is an explorer at heart, and loves walking through tall grass, fields, and
yards where he can. He’s getting used to city sidewalks and learning fast there is still
lots to see!

His demeanor is happy and calm, and he gets along great with dogs, cats, and kids. He
is gentle with shy dogs and a solid match for the playful, boisterous ones. Basically,
Uncle Buck is all the perks of a great dog, with almost none of the hard work.
If you’re looking for a loyal, goofy, and affectionate companion, Uncle Buck is your guy!
