About Hank

Meet Hank, a handsome Black Labrador Retriever full of personality. This laid-back guy is as chill as they come, preferring long sniffy walks in the sunshine and lazy afternoons on the couch. He loves food, stuffie toys, and spending quality time with his people. Hank is eager to please, and a good sense of humor will go a long way in bringing joy into your home. Hank arrived at the Humane Society of Chittenden County when his guardian was unable to care for him. While we don’t have much information about his past, we know he’s ready to be someone's best friend. Hank has done well meeting other dogs and might enjoy a canine companion at home. While we aren’t sure how he feels about cats, he may get along with a dog-savvy cat given time. He may also enjoy the company of respectful kids who can recognize his boundaries. If you're able to offer snuggles, laughter, and a little bit of space on the couch, Hank is waiting for you. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
