Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Sweet, easygoing Hogan is around a year old (best guess) and looks like he might be mostly lab (but definitely a mix of something!). He weighs about 45lbs now and we think he's just about done growing, but he might add a tiny bit more in height/weight. He gets along with most dogs, but would be just as happy being someone's only dog. He'd be up for hiking adventures or hanging on the couch and binging The Office (or Game of Thrones or Outlander ... he's not picky and will let you choose!). He is crate trained and easily entertains himself with kongs or toys when left to his own devices, but when he's with you he is all about his person. He is getting there on leash walking and comes with his own Freedom harness. He is eager to please and wants to know what makes you happy, and will do well with someone ready to start training and showing him how to be the absolute great dog he can be. He's happy and loving and an easy guy to have around. Hogan's adoption fee is partially sponsored and is just $300. Applications and information about our process can be found on our website at www.caninecommit.org.

A bit more information that you might find helpful:
YES, this dog is here in New Hampshire. Canine Commitment does not post any dogs as available until they are here, in NH, and available to meet before committing to adopt.
Canine Commitment has two licensed shelter locations (at our private residences) in the state of NH, abiding by all state and federal import and quarantine laws. We are a 501c3 not-for-profit organization run by volunteers who just want to help save some lives.
A NOTE ABOUT HOUSETRAINING: We can tell you about our experience with a dog in our homes and in the fosters' homes down south (prior to arrival in NH). Please keep in mind that we do this with a lot of pups -- dogs go directly outside when they come out of their crates and usually are not given free range in our homes without supervision. ANY dog may need time, patience, and consistency to learn your home, your routines, and your expectations of them. Be patient, buy a bottle of carpet cleaner just in case, and give this new relationship some time and TLC. Most pups have been in at least three locations prior to going to your home. They may be confused, unsure of themselves, and looking for cues ... and understanding. They are living, feeling beings who should not be expected to be perfect instantly. (Sometimes, they are. Bonus!)
A NOTE ABOUT LEASH WALKING: In our homes, the pups are in fenced areas. In most cases, volunteers have walked the adult, larger dogs at some point and we have some information from them about the dog's behavior on leash. Most often, we do not. Our experience with them on leash is limited to transfers to/from the car, into/out of the vet's office, etc. Some dogs behave just the way they do in group settings when they are on leash. Other times, they do not. Do not ask too much of a new, adult dog in your home. Give them time to adjust before introducing them to other dogs. Introduce them slowly and with forethought (feel free to ask us for some resources -- we are happy to provide those!).
