Huckleberry arrived at the shelter underweight, dirty, matted, and sad, but he has made a wonderful transformation and is ready for his new life. He loves people and is eager to be your friend, offering plenty of affection and enthusiasm.

Ideal Home

Huckleberry would likely do best as the only dog, since he currently becomes overly excited around other dogs. He is best suited to an adult-only home or one with older, dog-savvy children who can manage his size and exuberance. A detached home may be best because he has a big bark.

Ongoing Health

A large lump was removed from Huckleberry’s neck. It was benign, and the site has healed completely.

Training & Support

Huckleberry is working on his manners, leash skills, and basic training. He can climb counters, jump on benches, and grab on for hugs, so he will need continued guidance and positive support. The shelter is also helping him remain calmer when meeting or seeing other dogs.
