Behavior notes:
03/03/2025 Volunteer noted: Looooove him! Super playful, such a friendly disposition!
03/02/2025 Per day trip: We had a fun day trip with Hugh today! He hopped right in the car, walked well on our hike, and was overall a joy to take out! He enjoyed a pup cup at the end of our trip (pictured below). He is super energetic and playful and loved to run on our hike!
02/28/2025 playgroup notes: I took Hugh out for playgroup today. He was easy to leash and walks with only moderate pulling. He's easy to handle and very friendly with his new human friends. He was a playgroup rockstar!
02/28/2025 volunteer notes: Hugh is a snuggly, stocky fellow who just wants some treats and to rub his face all over you. His sweet eyes will melt your heart. He was very curious on leash and eagerly went to the bathroom as soon as we headed outside.
02/27/2025 volunteer notes: Playfully jumps, sweet, loves treat, medium to high energy.

KENNEL PRESENTATION:
Hugh was already up on the door when the handler approached. He had soft dilated eyes, ears back and was wagging with a relaxed body. He stayed on the door when the handler opened to leash him but allowed for very easy leashing and exited without issue.
LEASH SKILLS:
Pulls minimally, said hi to everyone he passed!
HANDLING :
In the room Hugh was very wiggly and social! He wanted to stop and say hi to every person he passed on the way to the room. He was very wiggly and affectionate, leaning in for pets, climbing on our laps and did not have any handling sensitivities. He was very well mannered in the room with us and gave lots of kisses. He took treats gently when offered as well.
PLAY:
Engages in play
