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, outings, and positive training. Older kids would be a better match at this stage, simply because he is still mastering the art of containing his enthusiasm and those jumpy greetings, but this will train away. If your kids know how to say "NO!" then he will be a perfect fit. He is sunshine in puppy form – sweet, loving, eager, and ready to grow into the very best version of himself.
Ongoing Health
Hanky is up-to-date on all vetting and has no known health conditions.
Training & Support
Hanky is house and crate trained and has a great base of house manners. He already knows "sit" and is eager to please, making him a dream to teach. Like all puppies, Hanky has basic things to learn. One area he will need continued guidance is on-leash walking, but he is responsive, sensitive, and thrives when someone shows him what's expected. He did wonderfully with the cat during his assessment and with guidance and consistency, he can absolutely become a cat-compatible household member.
