Do you like to party? Hike? Run? Do triathlons before breakfast? Hawkins is your guy!! Hawkins is just a tad over 1 yr. His birthday is 11/8 and he is a LOVE!

He would EXCEL at dog sports if  that’s your thing. Hawkins does great with the other 5 dogs in his foster home. He “can” be protective of his food with dogs, but we have no issues now with [...]

He would bellycrawl up to her and continued to present that behavior each time she talked to him. He was a very frightened young man. The lady contacted ACDR to see if we [...]
