NEW – 9 July 2026: Sox is the last of Roxy's Chicago puppies still looking for a permanent home. He is now with a new foster family where he is enjoying life and showing off his good looks and personality. Here is what his foster family has to say about this adorable puppy:

The Call of the Wild: Meet Sox (we call him Juneau), Your Ultimate Adventure Buddy!

Born in mid-April to a sweet beagle momma named Roxy, this handsome pup (originally known as Sox from his litter) has earned a very special new name: Juneau. Just like the beautiful Alaskan city, Juneau embodies a spirited love for the great outdoors! He is a one-of-a-kind, perfect blend of Beagle, Australian Cattle Dog, American Foxhound, Labrador Retriever, Golden Retriever, and Siberian Husky. This spectacular DNA mix has created a brave, independent, and incredibly loyal companion who is already proving to be the ultimate outdoor enthusiast.

Juneau is a true water dog at heart! He absolutely loves splashing around, going for long walks, and soaking up every ounce of nature. Whether you're setting up the camper at a state park or exploring a new local trail, he is ready to be right by your side. In fact, his unique breed blend has made him remarkably reliable on a long lead, he prefers to stay close and loyal to his people rather than bolting off to follow a scent. He is a fiercely adventurous and curious boy who isn't afraid of anything the world throws at him. Yet, at the end of a long day of exploring and chewing on his favorite toys, his absolute favorite thing to do is cuddle up close with you.

At around three months old, Juneau is already making fantastic strides with his puppy skills. He is doing wonderfully with his crate training (he actually loves his crate, which is a rare and wonderful bonus!), and he is getting the hang of house training, reliably doing his business outside on command while he masters the routine. While he is still learning that a leash is his friend, his bravery and smarts mean he'll be a pro in no time. He is wonderfully gentle with kids and gets along beautifully with dogs of all sizes, only letting out a happy, vocal bark when he is spectacularly excited and wrestling with his beagle foster brothers, Toby and Bentley.

Because of his amazing blend of working, sporting, and hound breeds, Juneau is looking for an active, loving family that shares his zest for life. While a fenced yard is always a wonderful bonus, his famously loyal nature means it isn't a strict requirement like it might be for a typical beagle. If you are looking for a playful, confident, and cuddly sidekick to share your camping trips, water days, and everyday adventures, Juneau is packing his bags and ready to go!

Juneau's Wish List

• An active, loving family ready to include him in outdoor adventures, hiking, camping trips, and water play.


• A patient teacher to continue his positive reinforcement with leash walking and polishing up his house training.


• A home with or without a fenced yard, as long as he gets plenty of safe, engaging outdoor bonding time.


• Lots of safe, durable chew toys to keep his clever puppy mind and teeth busy.


• A dedicated spot on the couch (or in your lap!) for world-class cuddling after a long day of exploring.
