Desperado is a 6-year-old hound mix who found himself in a shelter, fortunately he also found his way into rescue. He is a very sweet loving boy who is just a happy guy. Desperado isn’t really into playing, he would rather go for walks and check out the scenery. He also does well with other dogs and again really isn’t into playing, he just enjoys their company. This very sweet and gentle boy deserves a loving home where he can be spoiled! https://pawsnewengland.com/adopt/pet-12765/
