About Hugo
Hugo is a gorgeous little pup. He is a happy, confident little guy with excellent social skills and good doggy manners. He is able to play with the big dogs quite happily - in fact they rarely find the need to discipline him. He is also sensitive enough to play nicely with the crew that are a month younger than him. In the day time he sleeps on the dog beds, but at night he loves to come up on the bed and snuggle in, and that way he has been sleeping nicely through the night.
This little guy was surrendered to the vet team in one of the remote communities in the Barkly region of the NT during their dog desexing program. As a result of his early life in the community he has been well socialised to kids and all ages of humans. He would make a wonderful family dog and is the type of pup who wants to be included in everything. On the flip side he is also a pup who would fit in in any social setting. Of course he has the usual puppy behaviours of chewing toes and biting hands ocasionally. He will grow out of that but probably would be quite challenging for very small children.
Our rescue and rehabilitation work happens in Central Australia, but because of the scarcity of adopters locally, our re-homing operation is in South Australia. Hugo's adoption fee includes crate hire, courier transport by road from Tennant Creek to Alice Springs, and a direct flight from Alice Springs to Adelaide. Hugo is currently in foster care in Elliott NT.
