HUDSON's Story

Hello! I was surrendered to the shelter when my owner could no longer care for me. I did a great job for my intake exam and vaccines, and I seem to LOVE people. My previous owner reports that I do not do well with other pets (cats and dogs), so I may need to be the only pet in a home. They also reported that I am a little overwhelming to children, especially small children. I'll need older children and adults that understand my boundaries and know how to help me redirect my energy. I am very sweet, very handsome, and I know the right home is out there for me! Notes from my adventure buddies and foster friends: He’s one of the best dogs I have ever walked! He’s super friendly, loves petting, and would be a great pet! Hudson was a very good boy. Extremely friendly with us from the moment that we met. We took him on a walk around the shelter and when we got back he was excited to greet the shelter employees and love on them. He walked great on this walk, no pulling and kept checking back to back sure the person who wasn't holding the leash was following (think it a herding thing). He kept pace super well, but slowed a little towards the end (I think he had already been walked once that day). Overall great super mellow dog. Hudson is an amazing dog! He is very well behaved, will eagerly go on walks and then come back and chill out. He is very loving and loves to be around people. Even though he is an older dog, he still has a lot of energy to run around and tire himself out. He will do well with owners who can provide him with a lot of attention throughout the day because he is most happy when he is around people.
