Huggie

HOMETHE BOYS

 

 

 

 

 

 What's up peeps?  They call me Huggie and I am about 3 yrs old!  I am a skinny little dude and I desperately need to put on some weight!  I also had had a traumatic eye injury that has left me blind in one eye. The vets recommend that my eye be removed, but they are going to wait until I put on some weight first. I am very playful and energetic!  My foster mom says I have learned the doggie door!  I have a nice crate to sleep in, but I prefer to sleep on the couch or in my foster mom's chair.  I will sleep at night in my crate without wining or crying...I am a good boy!  I get a long great with other dogs, even the Doxie I am bunking with who usually does not like the new kids on the block.  I am doing pretty well with my potty training and a swift reminder from my people sets me on the right path if I slip up!  I LOVE LOVE LOVE belly rubs and petting and if you would let me, I'd eat my dinner right out of your plate!  Like a lot of Bassets, I love to counter cruise, but as yet I have not successfully snatched any goodies...but it is not for lack of trying on my part!  I just wish these darn legs were a bit longer! I have a few rough spots to get through with my eye, but once I am all fixed up, I'll be ready to go!   In the mean time, please contact my foster mom if you'd like to learn more about my cute little red heinie!

Adopted by Robert Earley of Christiansted, US Virgin Islands!  Have a happy life Huggie!!
