Meet Waylon Jennings #1051 the Basset (not to be confused with Waylon Jennings the Bassist, no MNBR number.) He’s not a singer-songwriter per se, but he does like to do a basset howl sometimes! This 4 ½-year-old tricolor boy came from a breeder down south, and is learning how fun being a house dog can be.
Waylon Jennings gets along well with the dogs in his foster home and is familiarizing himself with the cats. During the day, he hangs out in the fenced-in backyard or in his foster mom’s office, where he naps patiently until it’s time for a break. He recently took his first walk ever, and did fairly well, although he would like to put in an official complaint about walking in general (why does he have to do it at all??)
Waylon Jennings knows his name, although sometimes he pretends he can outrun it. He’s not a fan of being crated (although he’s quiet once he’s in) and this whole potty training thing is brand new, although he’s better with every passing day. His foster family says he’s very bright and it shouldn’t take him long at all to figure out “the system.” He can be strong and so a tie-out probably isn’t ideal, although going out on a leash would be okay.
He’s gaining confidence from his foster brother, but could be fine as an only dog as long as his new family is consistent in teaching him appropriate behavior.
Waylon Jennings’s favorite hobby is splooting. He also enjoys a good Kleenex snack, washing that down with all the water in the world, and getting his big ol’ ears scratched.

Sir William #1054
Age: 10 years old
Color & Breed: Tricolor Beagle
Gender: Neutered Male
Weight: 36 pounds
Fee: $100

Bow down to Sir William #1054! This beagle transplant from Texas is 10 years old, neutered, and is dog and people friendly. He gets along well with the dogs in his foster home, and would be okay as an only dog.
If you don’t have a fenced-in yard, don’t worry—Sir William walks well on a leash and would be fine supervised on a tie-out, but he shouldn’t be left outside unsupervised. He’s trusted to be loose in his foster home when people are out, and would rather relax than cause mayhem. He’s not too interested in toys but he has a thousand-yard stare when he sees humans eating (and not sharing!)
Sir William is a well-behaved boy who acts his age and would be an excellent addition to any dog-loving home.

Ripp #1062 Coming Soon
Age: 8 years old
Color & Breed: Red/White Basset/Beagle Mix
Gender: Neutered Male
Weight: 47 pounds
-
Ripp came to MNBR as a private relinquishment. Unfortunately Ripp’s family moved fr the country to the city and this old dog is having trouble learning new tricks. The new neighbors are not big fans of his beagle bugle bark and he missed the freedom of a yard to play in. It sounds like Rick spent a lot of his time outside and thus is going to need a refresher course on his house training, but he is dog and people friendly.
We will update his bio as we learn more about him.
