Dynamic Duo Willard and Foxy Are the SPCA of Hancock County’s Pets of the Week

Meet the Dynamic Duo of Willard and Foxy! They are the SPCA of Hancock County's Pets 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.

I'll be broadcasting from the SPCA of Hancock County on Friday from 11 to 1, so I hope to tell you more about Willard and Foxy! Be sure to tune into WDEA AM 1370 on-air and online!

The SPCA of Hancock County is open to the public Tuesday-Saturday, Noon to 4 p.m. You can see all the puppies, dogs, kittens and cats available for adoption, as well as completing an adoption application by visiting their website HERE
