(Ed) Hardy

Hardy, a former backyard dog turned bed hog is still patiently waiting for his forever home. Hardy has been in foster care for over a year now.

Hardy has come a long way from the scared dog many saw in the shelter - he is curious and brave, exploring new things and people cautiously. He has strong boundaries and prefers to come into your space, rather than you come into his - until he trusts you then he’s a love bug!

He loves bones, watching the world through a screen door, being near his human, playing tug or fetch with his toys inside and putting himself in his crate when he’s all done interacting with people. A real introvert.

Hardy currently knows the commands “go” (for his crate), sit” & “shake”, will sometimes speak and is really learning what “leave it” means! He walks kindly on a leash, is currently being muzzle trained and is used to apartment life / spending 8 hours a day in his crate. A commitment to continuing crate usage is required.

Hardy is very much a threenager and loves to play and talk back with a sweet little howl. He is crate trained, house trained and can settle into place terrifically! Boy is allergic to 🐓.

Would be the happiest in a calm, child free home. No cats. Small dogs welcome 💚 Large dogs welcome with SLOW introductions.
