Dog of the Week: Hippo

Meet Hippo! This is a 5-year-old female, North American house hippo…seeking a house. Hippo is a wonderfully spirited and friendly girl, and her name certainly suits her as she is a short and squat little thing with a mighty powerful personality. Hippo loves people, almost as much as she loves playing fetch!  She may be on the shorter side, but she’s still a strong girl at around 55-60 pounds and can pull quite hard on a leash.  She enjoys walks and we know that with a little training, she will start to ease up on her leash pulling. Hippo seems to be dog-friendly, but is perhaps most interested in hanging with fun people who like to play with her. She is not a match in a home with cats.

Hippo’s adoption fee is $250 and includes spay surgery, being up to date on vaccinations and preventives, a microchip with free lifetime registration, and a free obedience class.
