Hutch is an adorable tan puppy with some brown and white markings on his face. We think he might be a shepherd-hound mix.

Hutch is a happy, energetic puppy. He loves to play with toys, balls, other dogs—pretty much anything! He's just settling into his foster home, but so far he is sweet and well behaved, and even has house training pretty much down. Hutch has been great about sleeping through the night and coming when called. He hasn't met any kids yet, but he would likely do fine with them. There are cats in his foster home, and he doesn't seem too interested in them. He hasn't learned to walk on a leash yet; but he loves to run around in the fenced yard, and will zonk out promptly after a good romp.

IAR subsidizes post-adoption professional training with Jane Marshall (www.cheerydogs.com) to encourage a life-long and successful bond between the dog and the adopter. Group classes for puppies and adult dogs are provided at a substantial discount to IAR adopters.
