My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Hank!

Hank is a lot of things.

Hank is a lab. He is an Australian Shepherd. He is a German Shepherd. He is a boxer. He is even a Boston terrier. There is A LOT going on inside of Hank.

Most importantly? Hank is a certified good boy. And a peanut butter aficionado.

Hank is about a 1y9mo and he weighs around 50lbs. He's good on a leash, he's a super friendly extrovert that adores people, he loves a good snuggle, and he knows his cues like the back of his paw. He's high energy but not chaotically so...think "constant zoomies" more than "bull in a china shop". He can and will jump up on you but he just can't help himself! He just wants to be your best friend SO BAD that he can't contain it!

Hank is amazing with other dogs and definitely curious about cats, in the way humans are curious about aliens...we want to know more, we kinda want to get closer, but we're also not sure if this is a bad idea. He would do best with older kids (probably 10+) just because he has so much energy and is jumpy/can be a little mouthy when he's excited. Exceptions can be made for the right family if they have dog experience and the kid(s) is/are okay with being smothered with love by a big furry goober.

He loves long walks (on the beach or otherwise), snoozing in the sun, and he's the BEST boy for the vet and getting groomed (aside from nail trims, those are evil). He's a good listener (both for commands and if you need an impromptu therapy session). He also thinks ice cubes are, like, the best toy ever.
