We work on a first come first serve basis, and will set up meet and greets with interested adopters in the order we receive them. Our team will be in contact with you as soon as possible to update you on where we are in the meet and greet process of the animal you are interested in.

A little bit about me:
- Cats/small animals unknown, indications of prey drive
- Children may be okay. Some concerns with nervousness, touch sensitivity, bolting
- Only dog in home (required)
- Variable history,
- Adopters must be willing to work on confidence building and all other potential behaviour modification at Hugo's pace using force-free, science-based, positive reinforcement training methods

Hi, I'm Hugo! I'm a lovely boy who had a ruff start to life, so I'll need a home willing to be extra patient with me. My foster parent calls says I'm "a gentle soul". I'm quiet and keep to myself, but as I get to know you you'll notice me starting to check in to say hello! Since I'm an independent guy, I can be left alone for a while and be just fine. Because my history has been rather variable (and stressful), the team here isn't sure exactly how I'll act once I've truly settled into a home. If you're prepared for that, you'll also get to reap the rewards of seeing me blossom! Here's what I can tell you: I love cheese, I like walks, I'll accept slow gentle scritches, and I've been told I'm a very good boy. If you want to learn more about me, email the Adoptions team soon!
