Adoption pending! Meet our older gent Hooper, soft, gentle, sweet, shy, timid, craving love. This 6 year old boy would do best with a home that has another confident canine as Hooper tends to be on the shy side. Hooper is seriously craving some stability in his life and humans that he can trust and go to for comfort. Hooper is by far one of the nicest boys ever, so gentle and kind. Once this boy bonds to a person he is yours for life. He would probably do best in a quieter home with less activity as he is not high energy and change seems difficult for him. He is a very sweet guy with a gentle kind soul. Please apply if interested in Hooper.
