Wapsi – The Loyal & Loving Female Bloodhound (Age 5, Liver & Tan Bloodhound)
Meet Wapsi, a beautiful 5-year-old liver & bloodhound with soulful eyes, silky ears, and all the classic wrinkles you'd expect from her noble breed. Weighing around 100 pounds, she's a gentle powerhouse…affectionate, curious, and deeply loyal to her humans.
Wapsi is energetic, food-motivated, and loving, but she also enjoys her independence and doesn't rely on other animals for companionship. She's happiest when she's part of the family routine…following her people from room to room, napping in a cozy bed (or preferably your bed), and joining in for walks that let her famous nose go to work.
She's potty-trained, crate-trained, and house-mannered, though she's been known to "counter surf" if something tasty is left within reach. She does have the Bloodhound bellowing bark and will alert on wildlife outside the window or a neighbor knocking at your door. Like any true bloodhound, she must stay on leash outdoors — her tracking instincts are strong enough to follow a scent for miles!
Wapsi gets along with people of all ages and has successfully lived with other animals, though she can play a little rough if dogs aren't part of her familiar pack. Wapsi will need to be retrained for proper socialization if going to the dog park as she does not understand her size and weight when engaging with other dogs. We now use the side fenced in area of dog parks for her to run without worry. With patient structure, affection, and the occasional treat, she'll quickly become someone's loyal shadow. Wapsi's ideal home is one that appreciates the quirks of the bloodhound breed — a place where her floppy ears, bellowing bark, and heart-melting expressions will be cherished as much as her devotion.
