Meet Hocus (20230205-03)
Foster Comments: Hocus has really come out of his shell. He’s a happy sweet boy. He is still nervous of sudden movements and can take a little while to trust people. He loves running and playing with other dogs. He’s got amazing recall and can go free hiking with the pack. He is calm in the house and is happy to relax after a run at the park. He is used to a lot of physical activity (we do 3 walks a day plus 1-2 hours at park playing with other dogs). Hocus would be best in an active home. Tired dogs are happy dogs! He loves food and treats. He knows sit, stay, come, drop, down. He loves lounging in the backyard when sunny. He’s the sweetest boy.
