Hugo Pointer & Border Collie Mix Richmond, KY

08/15/11 - This is Hugo, a handsome 14 month old black mix. He is black with a white blaze down his chest. He has some white under his chin and on all four paws. He's tall and lanky at his age right now, basically all legs!.


Personality wise, Hugo is a very sweet and gentle young boy who loves to be a couch potato when allowed. He does well with indoor cats and other dogs. Hugo needs an active family that is home often and allows him to be indoors, but also one that has a fenced in yard so that he can get plenty of exercise. He loves to play fetch! A fenced in yard would be recommended for Hugo for exercise. He would do great with a family that had older children or even no children; he occasionally jumps on people when he is excited (we are working on that), so due to this reason, small children are not recommended. He walks excellent on a leash and is house trained. He knows how to sit and lay down when asked. He is crate trained, but can be a bit whiny in his crate unless he is zonked out. Hugo can be a bit timid and nervous in new situations (out of his environment), but at home where he is comfortable is where Hugo is best and where he wants to be! He's an all around great dog, looking to be someone's special companion.





Hugo has had all of his puppy shots, his bordatella vaccine, and is already neutered. His adoption donation is $85 to an approved home.
