Derpy is a friendly, playful 3-year-old Treeing Walker Coonhound with a personality to match his name! He absolutely adores toys, especially squeaky ones. While he gets along with other dogs, he's quite scared of cats, so a home with very calm felines or no cats is best. Derpy is heartworm positive and needs a dedicated family to support his treatment, which includes strict low-activity restrictions. The shelter covers his medical costs, and he hopes to find a loving home for his recovery.
