Twix

This handsome fellow came into the shelter as a stray. Twix is an approximately 7-year-old, large, white and brown hound-mix. He’s trim, long of leg and beautifully marked. Twix was a resident in the shelter back in May 2016. He was adopted but somehow he has lost his family again and remains unclaimed. He is a very sweet, calm and outgoing hound, who loves people, interacting with them and treats. Twix is already neutered and good to go after a reduced fee is paid.

Twix needs a good, loving and truly forever home with owner(s) who will show him attention, affection and exercise suitable for his age, in a fenced area or on a leash.

For video/photos of Twix, visit www.facebook.com/ENC Shelter Dogs. Twix’s ID#0495. He’s available through next Saturday at the shelter.
