You know how some dogs you can just look at and know they are happy, friendly, and good company? That was exactly how I felt the moment I saw Hanky. It was across the yard and I just knew he was going to be a good-time boy, and I was not wrong. If pure joy were a dog, it would be Hanky Baby! He is estimated to be just under 1 year old, so he has his happy personality paired with the wiggles and sweetness of the puppy days. Simply, he is the definition of happy-go-lucky, friendly, affectionate, social, and always ready to make a new best friend.
Ideal Home
Hanky would thrive with a family that enjoys walks, hikes, and outings. Older kids would be a better match at this stage simply because he is still mastering the art of containing his enthusiasm, but this will train away if your kids know how to say "NO!" then he will be a perfect fit. He would also enjoy a gentle, medium-energy dog companion.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned.
Training & Support
Hanky is house and crate trained and has a great base of house manners. He already knows "sit." He will need continued guidance on leash walking, but he is responsive and sensitive. His sweet nature and eagerness to please make him a dream to teach and he will quickly pick up more skills as he grows. He did wonderfully with the cat during his assessment and, with guidance and consistency, can absolutely become a cat-compatible household member.
