HUGO - Shiranian Male Dog For Adoption in Canfield, Ohio, USA

Dog Breed: Pomeranian / Shih Tzu / Mixed (medium coat).

Hugo is a 3 year old male mix of a Pomeranian/Shih Tzu parent and a Pomeranian/Poodle parent - half Pom but all POMSHIPOO. He and brother Victor are 100% unique! Hugo is slightly smaller than his brother and weighs in at around 15 pounds, full grown. Small in stature but big on personality and sweetness! Hugo is the less confident brother - not fearful, just a bit more hesitant. He needs a few more cuddles, a tiny bit more time to be comfortable, a little less activity around. He likes other dogs, seems totally non-reactive with cats, and pretty accepting of all people. He's a submissive sort and has been known to have a little bit of a nervous wee here and again when he is first in a new situation or meeting a new person, but we think that will resolve on its own as he gets comfortable with a new person in a new home. He is mostly house trained (well, see above with the submissive drip drop) and would probably do best in a home with older kids (teenage and up) or just adults. Nothing too crazy active or busy for this boy. Hugo would definitely do well in a home where he was taken out and about to see this big old world of ours - just to see that it isn't very scary really, just big and unknown sometimes. We believe that without his brother to hide behind he can really have a chance to shine and thrive given a human willing to help him find his joy. Hugo will be ready for adoption soon.
