PUMBA

Description

Pumba (A142845) is a 6-year-old Bloodhound x GSD mix who weighed 106.9 pounds on intake! 07/21/26 This big lovebug is Pumba! Pumba was surrendered to the shelter because his owner was moving out of the country and couldn't take him with. He was described as an affectionate dog who has historically done well with children and new people that he meets! Pumba was said to be housebroken and will bark at the door when he needs to go out to potty. Pumba was also noted to ride well in a vehicle and knows his basic commands (sit, down, paw). He is extra motivated to show off if a yummy treat is involved! Pumba was noted to be playful with other dogs. However, it is important that slow, safe, and controlled introductions are made with other animals to help set him up for success. On arrival at the shelter, Pumba had a severe ear infection and was treated by the vet. He has an ear culture and sensitivy test pending. It is very important that his new owner follows up with their own vet in 2 weeks (8/4) for a recheck. If you are interested in meeting Pumba, please let us know!
