Helloooo, Gorgeous! Meet Hefalump!
True, it's a funky name for such a beautiful girl, but she had "funky" skin issues when she was first picked up as a stray in Texas (see the photo collage from when she was pulled from the shelter). We're happy to report that her skin issues have been resolved and as you can see, she is just one stunning beauty! Hefalump appears to be a German Shepherd Dog mix almost 11 months old. She's crate trained and walks well on a leash; she's working diligently on her house training. She does know "sit" and "down," and would love to go to obedience class with you to learn more stuff! It's a fun way to work on socialization for the dog and helps her with the bonding process to her new family. Hefie is good with kids (she has been with those who are aged 10 years and older), other dogs and some cats - a sweet, gentle girl! Her skin treatments required lots of baths and she LOVES baths, so she would probably like swimming, too. She's affectionate and likes to be close to her people, is playful, eager to please, obedient and smart - very quick to learn! Though she doesn’t necessarily require a fenced yard, Hefie will need lots of daily walks and opportunities to play off-leash in a dog park which is the next best thing. A tired dog is a good dog! Dogs of all ages also benefit from mental stimulation – think puzzle toys and games. She likes to swim, play fetch and likes toys!
Sweet Hefie has come north and can't wait settle into her forever home! Can that loving home be yours? Fill out an application for Hefalump today! She's waiting to hear just from you!

**Additional info you should know - For most of our dogs, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our dogs as an individual and do our best to describe and place them based on personality not breed label. Some dogs may not yet be in New England, nor ready for immediate adoption. There may be additional vetting, quarantine, waiting periods and/or fees depending upon your state of residence. If you have questions or concerns on any of this, you can discuss this with your Adoption Counselor.
