Curly is guessed to be a 7-8 month old hound mix.  He's approximately 52 lbs and is not expected to get much bigger if at all.   He's super sweet and loves everyone including children, adults and other dogs.  Not known about cats.  He appears to be housebroke.  He is very submissive to the other more dominant male foster dog in the home.   He would do best in a home with other non-aggressive dogs and/or someone who is home a lot as he seems to have some separation anxiety.  He cries a little in his crate when his foster mom leaves for work, but goes into his crate easily with treats.  He would do best if he was able to sleep in bed with his human companions. He has an unusual bark that is pretty hard pitched so probably not be good in an apartment.
