Pet of the Week: Willard & Foxy (4/28/2025)

PET OF THE WEEK

Have you ever thought, “Wow, I really want a hound dog and a Shiba Inu?”... well, look no further! You’ve seen the Disney movie. Now get ready for the real-life version, starring Willard, a wise old hound with a limp and a heart the size of a watermelon, and Foxy, a sassy little Shiba Inu who’s 90% fluff and 10% mischief.

These two are not your average adoption duo. Willard is a retired hunting dog who decided chasing foxes was overrated, and friendship is where it’s at. Foxy? He wandered in like a woodland princess and never left Willard’s side. And somehow, it works. 

Willard enjoys slow strolls, snacks, and philosophical gazes into the distance. Foxy prefers zoomies, napping in sunbeams, and occasionally judging you from across the room. Their love language? Side-by-side naps and synchronized tail wags.

We know adopting a duo like this isn’t on most people’s bingo cards. But if you’re the kind of person who believes in magic, underdog stories, or just really enjoys the idea of having a Disney plotline playing out in your backyard, these two are waiting for you.

They’re great with people, love other dogs, and are 100% guaranteed to confuse your mailman.

Fill out an adoption application on our website to get the process started, and from there, we will help make sure it’s the right fit: https://www.spcahancockcounty.org/adopt/

Let’s find this dynamic duo the happily-ever-after they deserve. Because some friendships are just too good to separate.
