About Hank

Adoption Fee: $225
Lab / Mountain Cur
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Male

Meet Hank Hank is a handsome boy! He found himself at our shelter after being abandoned by his owner. The shelter has really been tough on Hank. He hates it, plain and simple. It feels like doggie prison for a dog who didn't do anything except be neglected by humans. This handsome dog is a free spirit, but we can tell he is looking to bond with his person and be part of a pack. He likes other dogs and enjoys being with them. Hank has an easy-going temperament when away from the shelter. He's friendly and calm. He's got some pent-up energy now and we're looking for ways to help him run it off safely. Hank is a year or two old. He should be running and playing, instead he's cooped up in a kennel confined to the daily rhythms of shelter life. He is a gorgeous dog, just a wonder to look at with a strong head, a gorgeous coat and athletic build. He looks like a mix of lab, cur, and American bulldog. He is athletic and would do best in an active household. He is very smart too and will create his own fun if no one is there to guide him. Hank seems like a dog who would love to train in agility or parkour. He has crazy jumping and climbing skills and the focus and heart to be a champion. Hank loves attention. He wants to know he matters. He needs a family experienced with dogs to guide him. Hank has incredible potential. He's not been guided or cared for very well so far as we can tell. For the person who understands dogs and is willing to work with and train Hank and give him the love and security he needs, Hank is a keeper. He will require a good bit of exercise, but his love and loyalty will be unquestioned. We think he is house-trained too. We're still getting to know Hank and are working with him, but if you are looking for an exceptional dog to welcome to your heart and home and build a bond with, Hank is your guy. He could use a second chance to be the best dog possible. Get your application in for Hank at www.charlessmithgallhumanesociety.org.
