Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello World,
My name is Hobie and I’m a handsome and happy little guy of eight (and 8 pounds soaking wet) who smiles (yes I do!), is crate trained, housebroken and loves life. Mom says I love people, love other dogs, love rides in the car and love to snuggle. She says that I AM a love (Silly Mom. That’s a lot of loves:>))
Dad says I’m very playful. You see I have these stuffed animals I call my friends. I like to throw them around (and am learning about bringing them back, too.) I also like to play chase- and to be chased! Dad says that I’m ‘exercising’ and am as cute as can be.
Another thing I like to do is take walks. I know some commands (and I listen, too!) I also like to sit on the chair outside and watch the birds. If they land on the ground I like to chase them. I wouldn’t ever hurt them but I sure do like to let them know I’m here.
Mom says she loves the way I try to engage my doggy foster brother and sister in play. I get right in front of them, do the play bow, bark to let them know it’s play time, then run (checking to make sure they are following me!)
Dad and Mom agree that I'm a major cuddler who adapts well to my surroundings. Mom says I’m very sweet, happy and easy. I’m a meeter-and-greeter (when people come to visit) and equally content to lie quietly and contentedly while Mom works on her computer or stops to read a book. And I am very smart and know commands like 'sit' and 'come.' Best of all, I want to please!
I just had a grooming, dental and am ready for my forever home. I would love to have at least one doggy brother or sister to play with – and a person or people to love. Mom says to tell you I’m as cute as I am gentle... and as mellow as I am cuddly. While I seem to have it all, the one thing that I’m missing is my very own forever family who will love me and care for me always. If that sounds like you please complete our adoption application.
Just ask for me by the name Mom calls me…. Happy and Huggable Hobie.
Love,
HHH
