Terrier / Mixed (long coat) : : Male : : Adult : : Large
I need a new home! I don’t want to come to the shelter, so I’m hoping someone will see me and tell my mom that I’m the perfect dog for them! Here’s everything you need to know: “Hi! I’m Hokie. Im a 6yo neutered and microchipped fella with terrier roots. I weigh about 55-60 lbs. So I’m a load if you are trying to get me in the tub for bath time (which I’m not a huge fan of). I had a bad experience at the groomers when I was younger so I have to take a little med to help calm my anxiety. But my groomer says I have come a long way! I like toys with squeakers and chew toys. I do struggle to share my toys and will need supervision if other fur friends are around. And I definitely don’t share my food with others! I am used to eating my meals in my crate. It’s a safe space to eat and sleep for me. I love people of all ages but given my size kids need to be 8 yrs old and over. I tend to think I’m a lap dog. I love sitting on the couch with my people and for them to rub behind my ears or on my back. And if you stop I will paw at you. :). I was adopted with my sister into a family that already had an older fur friend. Sometimes I lose my cool and start a squabble with them. (Not some of my finer moments. ) I was introduced to cats about a year ago! It took me a while but I was able to be friends with one of them. The other still runs and hides from me and I don’t like it when she does that. It triggers my terrier instincts to find wherever she is hiding. If you ou’re interested in meeting Hokie, fill out an application; we will forward it to his mom.
