My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Hugo, a two-year-old Pit/Husky weighing almost 70 pounds.

Hugo was found running as a stray, his finder wasn`t able to keep up but did tell us he did great with other dogs, but his personal dogs were not appreciative of him trying to play with them as they were much smaller than him. He does great in the car as well and is working on his crate training as he does get a little anxious when left alone. The finder said he was pretty chill with him but since coming to us he is understandably a bit unsure and skittish; the shelter life can be very overwhelming. He is working on his leash training but does check in with you for reassurance. He is just looking for someone to take him under their wing and show him the ropes.

This pet is available for adoption on 12/22/2024 at 10:09 AM at the Yakima Humane Society adoption center. If you recognize this animal please contact the adoption center at 509-457-6854.

Did you know YHS lets local community members FOSTER TO ADOPT?? That`s where you and the pet make sure you`re a good fit for one another by having a fun sleepover prior to finalizing your adoption. It`s a win-win for everyone! Just ask our front desk staff about how it works.

Interested in adopting this or another YHS pet? Please complete our adoption questionnaire found at: https://yakimahumane.org/adopt/apply/

Our adoption fee includes a lovable companion, spay/neuter, vaccinations and intestinal worming, flea/tick treatment, rabies vaccine (for pets over 3-4 months of age) and a microchip with nationwide registration. Your adoption fee helps support YHS and our spay/neuter efforts in the community to end overpopulation of cats and dogs.
