Adopter Hobbs

Krydsede raser · Mand · Voksen · 5 år

Hobbs (born 2021, 24kg and fostered in Hampshire) loves everyone and has been lovely with children. He is incredibly affectionate and funny and loves cuddling up and watching TV, especially ‘Traitors’! This clever, affectionate boy lost his eye due to being badly beaten as a puppy, but he is very well adapted to partial sight. Hobbs was reactive when he first came into foster. With time, training, and getting to know Hobbs, it has become clear that the cause of his reaction to other dogs was frustration: he wanted to meet them and play. His fosterers have a routine in place where they ask him to check in before and during walks, staying in control. This is working well. He has been pack walking and even off the lead on occasion. However, Hobbs is still a work in progress when he is outdoors, and therefore we are looking for experienced and patient adopters who are prepared to put the time into continuing his training. Because Hobbs is a strong and agile dog, it is essential his new owner(s) can manage him physically. He is a sensitive soul, very clever, but very sound sensitive; terrified of fireworks. We suspect there may be Shepherd in his breed mix. In the home, Hobbs has beautiful behaviours: he is housetrained, crate-trained, sleeps through the night, responds to his name, is non-destructive, can be left alone, learns quickly, travels well, doesn’t counter surf. Hobbs is a clever chap and an adventurous spirit too; inquisitive and excited to explore out on his walks. He loves a sniff, loves to play, and would probably be up for some agility training too. Hobbs is looking for a calm, kind and understanding person or family who are interested in helping him improve and who will shower him with love. Anyone who meets him thinks he’s more than worth the effort; he’s already pretty much perfect in the home. A clever, affectionate boy with an adorable wonky face who is willing to learn and desperate to please.
