Meet HOPE

HOPEIs a sweet mature gal who loves checking out all the smells while out in the exercise yard. She's a more mellow girl who loves attention and is easy on the leash. She is ok self-entertaining and is a great potential as a companion for someone who isn't up to all the things that come with a puppy. Hope is a spunky cuddle bug and we love her personality! She likes walks, treats, toys, and belly rubs. She will flop onto your lap if you sit on the ground with her. She would love to be with you as much as you’d let her, but she’s also okay being left behind a baby gate. She may protest with little whines but calms down quickly. She’s not destructive and she doesn’t scratch or dig at doors or the floor. She may even do well with cats! She’s well-mannered in the house, quickly finding her dog bed and laying down and only chewing on her toys. Hope takes treats very gently and loves to play fetch. She doesn’t seem to be a big barker and knows sit, lay down, and stay. When let out to potty, she goes out and does her business quickly. She likes to spend time outside afterwards but will come back in when you call her. She’s had no accidents in the house and sleeps through the whole night. When given a bath, she waited patiently in the tub and enjoyed being dried off with a towel (lots of snorts and rolling around)! Hope weighs in at about 50 lb. If you are interested in meeting this pet, please visit https://humboldtgov.org/2658/Animal-Shelter and fill out an application to be pre-approved to make an appointment.
