Hugs's Story
Hugs isn’t your typical “run-up-and-lick-your-face” kind of dog, and that’s exactly what makes him extraordinary. He’s a tender-hearted, sensitive boy navigating a world that can sometimes feel a little too loud and a little too fast. He’s shy, not broken. Cautious, not closed off. And once you earn his trust, he’ll melt into your hands, lean in for soft pets, and look up at you with the sweetest, quiet adoration.<br/><br/>Hugs has a softness about him that makes every small step forward feel like a gift. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs, including small ones and new friends he hasn’t met before, and he walks politely on a leash. He’s also missing one toe from a puppyhood injury, which we like to think just adds to his charm.<br/><br/>Because of his size and sensitive nature, Hugs will thrive in a calm, quiet home with adults or gentle teens (12+). No cats either. What he truly needs is someone who understands the beauty of slow beginnings, someone who will offer patience, kindness, and the space he needs to feel safe and loved.<br/><br/>If you’re the kind of person who treasures quiet moments, soft connections, and the incredible reward of watching a shy dog blossom into his truest self, Hugs is your dog.<br/><br/>Some of the most beautiful stories begin with patience… and a chance.<br/><br/>Est DOB 11/23/23
