Look at this sweet Terrier mix. Meet Hank! This boy had had a ruff life and needs a soft place to call home! He is around 4 years old, kennel trained, learning to walk on a leash, but needs a home without small children. Hank needs time to decompress and feel safe! He likes to be an alpha male so dog testing would need to be done with him prior to adoption. He hasn't been tested with cats yet and tends to be a bit nippy! This guy will just take time with lots of love and patience. Visit or call the shelter if you would like to meet the adoptable pets.
