Well actually he’s not a puppy – he’s 3 years old. This is Corey. He’s a Bagel Hound. Which is a cross between a Basset Hound & a Beagle. Isn’t that funny! A Bagel!!

We adopted him last week from Atlanta Pet Rescue which is a really wonderful no-kill shelter.
As some of you may remember, we lost our beloved Golden Retriever, Maxie last year to cancer. So it’s taken us a long time to get to a place where we even wanted another dog.
Corey is a really great dog! He’s really smart and very loving. He’s already crate trained. He loves to be outside but he’s fine inside too. I haven’t seen one of the dreaded chipmunks since he came to live with us! So maybe I’ll stop finding little chipmunk holes everywhere now.
We’re very happy that he’s come to live with us (he’s “officially” my daughter’s dog). He’s a cutey and I’m sure you’ll be seeing more of him 🙂

Manuela, that’s wonderful. I’m sure you still miss Maxie a lot but Corey looks like a winner. Yay for you. Have fun with your new family pet member FPM as I call them. Take care and good to see you. Been awhile since last we commented.
Claudia says
He’s absolutely adorable, Manuela! Congratulations to the family! Give him a kiss for me.
Mary says
Rescue dogs are the best!!! You have a Bagel and I have a rescued Blab! (Bassett lab mix) such a sweet sweet dog!
DFW says
He’s gorgeous! They love to find ground critters so let him outside often!
Richella at Imparting Grace says
I’m so happy for you, Manuela! Corey is adorable! I’m such a lover of hound dogs. We had a Basset hound for 12 years (putting him down was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done) and now we have a beagle. Such sweet dogs! Corey is one lucky fella to have found a home with you!
Kelley Highway says
Awww! Congratulations! He’s adorable. I’m equally as thrilled for Corey as I am for you!
Diana says
He is so cute! I’ll bet he’s super smart — beagles are very very smart, and bassets are so affectionate — what a great mix.
Debby Messner says
Oh he is so cute. Just adorable. Glad that you got a rescue, they are the best. i am just blown away how sweet our rescue doggie is.
Vee says
I hope so! He’s very handsome. Hope that he isn’t a digger either!

Hi Manuela~
Oh, what a lucky family you are! Corey is so darling, and what a sweet face. I love rescue pups and the amazing people who adopt them and take care of them until their families come to bring them home.
Rose H says
Corey looks a sweetie :o)
I’m certain he’ll be very happy in his forever home Manuela.

He’s really lovely! I’m sure you won’t regret bringing him home.
We recently lost our 13yr old beagle who we rescued from death row in an animal shelter.
She had the sweetest personality and we all adored her!
Corey reminds me of our Bonnie. Such a beautiful face 🙂
Theresa H. Roach says

Pamela Gordon says
What a sweet dog you have adopted! I’m sure he will be very happy with you in his new home and it looks like he’s keeping the chipmunks away for you! lol
Melanie says
What a cute dog! He already looks very much at home. I’m so happy to hear that you adopted a dog from a shelter. There’s so many animals out there that need good homes.
Brenda@Coffeeteabooksandme says
Oh, he is precious! SO glad it was time to adopt another furry member of the family.
I almost said “no” to Victoria but the friends from church who had rescued her (it didn’t work out with their boy cats turning into bullies) had hubby get her and bring her over for me to see. I was still mourning Storm and Sasha… but just as soon as he opened the kitty carrier and Her Queenliness walked out… I was smitten.
Although little did I know I was getting a Diva, hehehe. We DO love her so much and it didn’t take but hours for her to find her own place in our home. Just like that little guy of yours. SO CUTE, I just want to hug him and I’m usually a cat lover.

Too cute for words!! So happy you have a new little one to love.
Jacque Avant says
I am so happy you adopted a shelter dog. They know that they have been saved and give so much love and affection back to the family. We have 2 adopted dogs and can’t imagine being without them. Enjoy your new furbaby.

Congrats on the new family member! I’m so glad you rescued instead of going to a breeder 🙂
Terri says
As I sat on the deck this evening (with Maddie sitting on my foot so I won’t float off), I thought of you and Maxie and hoped you’d soon feel you could have another dog. So happy to meet this cutie. He reminds me of my Trudy with his sweet brown ears and sad eyes.
Tracey McBride~Frugal Luxuries ® says
Hahahah…so funny and sooo CUTE!!! Lucky doggie to have such a sweet family adopt it.

Hi Manuela,
I wanted to say what a cute dog you adopted! I remember feeling your pain when I read that your Maxi died of cancer and also know it takes a long time to heal from this loss. Our golden Abby died on September 7th at age 14. I am finding it so difficult to cope with this huge loss. I read recently that when a dog dies he/she takes a little bit of your heart with them. This is how I feel. I know this too will pass, but for now I love to meet other peoples dogs. When my husband and I are healed I’m sure we wil get another. A rescue dog makes perfect sense to me. One that is a little older and already trained is a bonus! Enjoy the new member to your family and I hope you share lots of stories about him.
