Hi, I'm Hubbard! I'm an 11 month old Heeler mix. I've been at the shelter since I was just eight weeks old. All of my siblings have been adopted and I've been left behind hoping someone can give me a forever home. It's not ideal for a puppy to have to grow up in a shelter but I'm the sweetest guy! I love hanging out with people and playing with other doggy friends.
