Email: ddrtxinfogmail Primary Website: .DDRTX Looking for the perfect "big boy" to join you on the couch OR on adventures? Meet Hewitt Claus! Hewitt is one sweet and friendly teddy bear! All his 27lbs just want to be loved. He is estimated at 3 years old and came from a shelter so we don’t know much about his background, but we learned that he was actually quite popular at the shelter and also at our vet's office. During the holidays, Hewitt's foster family had all kinds of people and children over, and Hewitt was an amazing host, soaking up all the attention from littles and bigs alike. Most of our guests actually wanted to take him home! Seems like Hewitt has never met a stranger in his life. This docile boy is the perfect balance of playful but also calm and cuddly. He gets along with dogs his size and smaller, we are not sure about big ones yet. He’s got a big voice but rarely uses it. He has met some of the outside cats and wasn’t reactive in any way. He does well in the crate, is housebroken, and he's also been working on getting better at walking on the leash. Foster mom loves Hewitt because he truly is a good boy and so eager to please, he even earned a spot on the big bed, where he stays all night and won't get out of bed until he's got the signal to go potty in the morning. We don’t know what Hewitt is mixed with but we’ve wondered if he’s got some Labrador in him. He so easy going and would do great with active people that can give him lots of affection, take him on adventures, and since he seems to gravitate towards children, we believe he would be the perfect fit for a family with kids. A yard to run around is a must for this big boy. Hewitt is fully vetted and was cleared as healthy. He was neutered and even got a dental cleaning. If it sounds like Hewitt would be perfect for your family, get your application in so you can meet him; we are positive you are going to fall in love with him!
