Hey folks, I decided it was time to finally fill in some things about
me. Sorry for the delay, but being a puppy has kept me quite busy, as
you can imagine.
I'm Hobo and I was rescued from the Birmingham
shelter on about 7 March 2012.
I weighed 33 pounds at the shelter.
But I only weighed about 30 pounds when I was neutered on 15 March.
I now weigh 35 pounds so my people think that I am about as big as I will get.
I had a very slight case of demodecdic mange when I came to the shelter but that has
improved greatly through medicine, good food, and less stress.
My foster home has three other dogs (two of which are pit
bulls).
Plus they have a cat. The cat has me trained to mostly leave her
alone. She let me know to not disturb her existence. I try but sometimes I really want to play with her. I suspect that her hissing does not mean "let's play". But I still try while respectfully keeping my distance in doing so. You know, crazy cats. She obviously
thinks she owns the house and I let her believe that fiction.
I like to go on walks and do fairly well on-leash.
I have made visits to places like PetsMart, Tractor
Supply, and the local A New Leash on Life Thrift Store. I do well on
greeting all kinds of folks and other critters.
I am still a goofy pup and sometimes just trip over my
own four feet (especially on the wood floors).
I am happy-go-lucky.
I love to chase toys and bring them back.
My people say that I am great in the car, not excitable, and relaxed. I guess that is good. They seem happy.
So, check out all the photos I just added below. Ain't I cute?
