Hank loves other dogs! He is a very social boy with lots of doggie friends, both large and small. He is excellent at meeting new dog friends on the leash. He currently lives with a female and male bulldog in his foster home. Hank can be oblivious to dog social cues and needs direction from his humans, for instance his foster brother occasionally gets a little grumpy with Hank’s enthusiasm but Hank has no idea and thinks they are the best of friends. When this happens, his foster mom will step in to give the resident dog some space. Hank’s favorite play mates are other friendly dogs who love to run and wrestle.

Meet Hank
Hank is awesome! He is so friendly and social, we can’t believe he hasn’t been scooped up. Hank’s friendly and well behaved demeanor means he can go all the places. Hank frequently enjoys outdoor dining at local restaurants, attends local dog events, watches live music, and goes on vacation with his foster family. Need to leave him home? No problem, Hank is crate trained and is a great boy in the house.
Hank is a young, energetic dog so we are recommending his forever home have a fenced yard so he can get his zoomies out. Hank’s energy is similar to other young, large breed dogs. Hank thrives when he has stimulation to keep his brain or body working. In his foster home, Hank goes on 5k runs 2-3 times a week. On days he doesn’t run, his foster parents spend about an hour a day training, playing, or otherwise engaging with Hank.
Hank would love a doggie friend in his forever home but would also be okay solo. Hank is really just looking for a family that wants to include him.
