Meet Colman! He’s an all-around good boy, tennis ball enthusiast, and your future best friend.
Colman is a 10-year-old hound mix with a heart full of love and a mouth full of tennis balls (seriously — he likes to keep one on standby at all times). His happy place? A big fenced yard where he can zoom around playing fetch and show off his speed. He also enjoys walks and jogs on-leash, especially with a harness that helps him remember not to pull — though he sometimes gets a little too excited to get back home… to his ball.
He’s still working on his confidence. New people can make him nervous, and he needs a little time and space to warm up. He might approach cautiously at first, but with some tasty treats and a quick game of fetch, he’ll soon be wagging and ready to be your loyal shadow. He’s a devoted watchdog too — he takes his job seriously and will let you know if anyone’s at the door. Because of this, he’d do best in a calmer home without frequent visitors or loud gatherings.
Smart? You bet. He knows tons of tricks like sit, shake, down, roll over, place, and more. He can even balance treats or a tennis ball on his nose and wait for the release command. House-trained? Absolutely. He’ll always let you know when he needs to go out, and he’s kennel-trained too — sleeping peacefully through the night or resting while you’re away.
Colman’s dream home is one without other pets or small kids, a yard to call his own (though he’s flexible as long as he gets his exercise), and most of all — a patient, loving family who’ll help him build confidence and never run out of, you guessed it, tennis balls.
