Meet Ickett
Ickett is a GORGEOUS, 40 pound, 3-year-old Redtick Coonhound who is currently looking for a new career… because we’re pretty sure his previous one just wasn’t working out. We don’t know much about Ickett’s life before coming to us, but we suspect he may have been a hunting dog and, well… we have a feeling he wasn’t exactly Employee of the Month. This sweet boy is just too laid back for blue-collar work. He’d much rather pursue a career in snack quality control, professional hiking, couch warming, and making dog friends. LOVES other dogs Loves going on hikes Very passionate about snacks❤️ Sweet, gentle, and goofy once comfortable Great on leash Currently learning how to PLAY and just be a normal, carefree dog! Watching him slowly figure out toys, playtime, and how much fun life can be has been the sweetest thing. At around 3 years old, Ickett has officially retired from the working-dog lifestyle. He’s ready for a cushy position as somebody’s full-time best friend excellent benefits package required: treats, adventures, canine coworkers, and unlimited love. Come meet this handsome boy and help him start his new career! Puppies 6 months and under are typically $200 and dogs from 7 months to 6 years are typically $100.00.
