About Hagrid

Meet Hagrid! Born in September 2022, Hagrid is a charming Shih Tzu/Terrier mix weighing just 9 pounds. With his scruffy good looks and gentle demeanor, he's hard not to adore. Hagrid is on the lookout for a special forever home alongside his sister, Bellatrix. These two have been inseparable since birth, sharing a deep bond that includes playtime and mutual comfort. They will only be adopted together, as their connection is too strong to break. Hagrid absolutely loves kids, lighting up with joy in their presence. He enjoys playing with toys, frolicking with Bellatrix, and immersing himself in family fun. While children attract his affection quickly, he tends to be more cautious around adults. New grown-ups will need to be patient, giving Hagrid the space to approach and build trust. Once he feels secure, his sweet and loyal personality shines through. Hagrid and Bellatrix will be ready for their forever home after July 28, once Bellatrix's puppies are fully weaned. We hope to find them the perfect family soon to ensure a smooth transition into their new lives. As a pair, they will make wonderful family companions—playful, affectionate, and happiest when together. If you're looking to welcome two loving dogs into your life, Hagrid and Bellatrix are ready to fill your home with joy and love. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
