Hunter is a sweet 4 year old, middle of the pack Setter. He walks well on the leash and is very smart. He responds to COME and SIT commands and is trained to an ecollar. He loves to cuddle and be with his human. Hunter wants to love his humans as much as possible and may do best in a home where he doesn't have to split snuggle time with a roommate. He does, however, enjoy a playful session of chase in the yard with his foster siblings.
Hunter is patient when being groomed and getting his nails clipped. He knows the importance of self care and wants to look good for his potential adopter!
Hunter likes to watch birds and squirrels, but he is a lover and not a hunter. He is afraid of thunder and loud noises. He really is the sweetest boy and loves to sit on a lap and give "hugs".
