My name is Russell! Meet Russell Russell is a 6-year-old Bluetick Coonhound with striking black and tan markings and long silky ears that make him look every bit the classic hound. Always ready with a smile, he brings joy and charm wherever he goes.

He thrives on regular exercise and enrichment, whether it is long walks, active play, or interactive toys. His balanced energy makes him a wonderful match for a family looking for a dog who enjoys adventure but also settles down nicely at home. Training and Behavior Russell is a smart learner who listens well and is both food and praise motivated. He is easily redirected and enjoys working with people who engage him. He does well on leash, goes into his crate when told, and has had no accidents in the house. Social Life This handsome hound loves people, dogs, and children. He plays well with other dogs, delights in toys, and enjoys being part of the action. His social nature makes him a great candidate for a multi-pet household. Special Traits Russell is always ready to share his happy spirit, whether he is carrying around a favorite toy or simply trotting along at your side.
