Well now, here's a pup you won't soon forget! This is Hobo - the goofiest hound you may ever meet.
Hobo was a Coal Road dump, of course; and a caring couple originally kept him while looking for his owner until one of their dogs decided they didn't like Hobo's antics. Now he's here, waiting to find the special someone who will appreciate his particular brand of dog humor.
A true goofball, Hobo is very playful -- his favorite toys are his stuffies! What REALLY motivates him are TREATS, TREATS & MORE TREATS! This guy will climb mountains for treats...But you gotta give them to him directly or else he won't find them. Hobo is very affectionate, also. He's a sweetie who loves his scritches and scratches and he's got the biggest ears to tussle around!
We believe he may never have lived inside before (not 100% certain, just behavioral observations), so he'll need some patience with some of his training. Rarely does he bark outside of his kennel, though! He's a jumper, but would likely love some kids to play with; and definitely seems to get along with other pups.
Hobo will make you LOL and then lean on you for rubs and lovins' - swing by the shelter to find out for yourself!
Call the shelter to set up a meet & greet!

More about this shelter
Shenandoah Valley Animal Services Center is an open admissions animal shelter and is home to dozens of animals looking for their forever homes. We are a Municipal pound for Augusta County, Staunton, and Waynesboro so we take in all strays, abandoned animals, and owner surrenders. We have 40 dog runs and about 85 cat cages.
The Shenandoah Valley Animal Services Center began operation in September of 2011. Since opening, we have successfully lowered the euthanasia rates for our community! Our shelter's current save rate is 95 percent, which is the direct result of our dedicated staff and volunteers working hard to finding these animals their forever homes. Please call the shelter with any questions regarding animals found on the website for more information.
We offer help to our community through education and assistance. With the help of other organizations we are able to spay/neuter animals in our community that the owners could otherwise not afford. With the help of our community we are on a mission to save every adoptable animal in our area.
