His long tail never stops wagging, especially when he is around people. With his medium energy, Hank enjoys playtime, especially fetch, and he gets along well with other dogs. While his history with cats is unknown, his playful, gentle nature suggests he might adapt well with the right introduction.

He will thrive with a family that is committed to helping him master leash skills with regular walks around the block or playing with canine friends at the dog park. He has already established his house and crate training skills like a champ. Hank already knows the sit command and is eager to learn more, showing promise as a fast learner. It is important to remember that although Hank is housetrained, accidents can occur while adjusting to a new home environment.
