It has been one year already since I adopted my boy Rebel(formerly Rudy). I feel like I hit the lottery with this hound. He loves people, other dogs and even the cats. He prefers his crate to the furniture, go figure, and loves to give kisses to everyone. At night he sings to us before going in his bed, with a long low howl. I love it! Just waiting to see if he gets an answer from any of the urban coyotes around here-LOL-or his Siberian Husky girlfriend down the street. Thank you to everyone at ABTCR ! Love my big Rebel Rouser to the moon and back!!!
