My name is Gallagher. I am a 7 year old beagle/basset hound mix. Don't let my age fool you though; I still have a lot of spunk in me. I love my chew toys, which I carry around in my mouth and even sometimes bring outside in the yard with me. My foster mom caught me trying to burying one the other day. Fetch is one of my favorite past times. I also love sunbathing in the backyard and playing chase with my foster sister and brother. As energetic as I am, I also love to cuddle. As soon as someone sits down, I am right by their side awaiting a belly rub or an ear scratch.

During the day while my foster family is at work, I am very well behaved. I chew only on my toys and bones. I am totally housebroken and will ask to go out by sitting at the door. However, I really look forward to their return as it means it is time for a walk. I don't think I got a lot of walks with my other family as I do a pull quite a bit. But my foster mom is very patient and I am slowly learning to heel. Walking is very important for me as you may have notice I am a little overweight. My new family will need to be committed to helping me maintain a healthy weight through daily exercise and diet.

So if you think you might have room in your heart (and in your home)for a silly dog like me please come and meet me one saturday at the adoption show. I know I would love to meet you.
