Please welcome Hector back to RAGOM!! Handsome Hector made the move to his new foster home recently and I’m happy to report that he is adjusting to his new environment very well. He was quite active when I first brought him home and it didn’t take him long to explore every inch of the house. Once he was done exploring, and checking out resident girl Carlie, he was right by my side and I don’t think he has left it since.

He has a very fun and affectionate personality. He is always happy and his tail is always wagging. He gets along well with Carlie but he seems to be somewhat fascinated by her. I am not sure if that is because he has not lived with many other dogs before and is curious about her or if he just thinks she is really cute. He loves attention. He is an energetic boy who loves to run but he is just as comfortable spending a relaxing evening on the couch watching TV. He will come when his name is called (when not distracted by a deer in the woods out back). He enjoys car rides, although sometimes he needs a little encouragement to climb in. He does pull a bit when on a leash. But he sleeps great at night, usually on the bed with us, and I never hear a peep out of him all night.

I don’t believe he has had much training or many rules in his life, but he is a smart boy who is eager to please (especially if a treat is the reward) so training him should not be too difficult. He knows sit and stay. The concept of shake seems to be new to him but he should have that down in no time, too. His best trick, which I think he taught himself, is standing on his two hind legs. He likes to show off this skill when he gets really excited about his upcoming meal.

Hector really just wants to be your best friend. He is a very special boy who is easy to fall in love with. There will be more to come as I get to know him better. Thanks for taking time to read about Hector!
