Hi, my name is Hank! I have been here since January 2026. I am a German shepherd and Poodle mix, so I am very smart- and I know it! My mix is very energetic and intelligent, so I will need a home that understands my stimulation needs and will be willing to work with me. I am learning my manners here and i'm making lots of progress, but I'd really like to have my own person to be my partner in crime! I think I would make a good hiking buddy. I am a big dog with a bigger personality! I am very food motivated and like to play, so I could learn lots of cool things with an owner. I love people and am very social, friendly, and affectionate. I like to play tug or fetch and I like when we get frozen kongs here- the whipped cream ones are my favorite. I also love other dogs, big or small, and like to run around and play with my doggie friends here.
