Hugo – 11 month old male Labrador
Hugo 11 month old black Labrador male. Hugo is a lovely pup, very bouncy and overweight. He comes from working lines, hence his hyper behaviour. He broke his leg just before Christmas and it is pinned in two places. He has recovered well and signed off by the vet. He has no limp and uses the leg normally. I have looked at it very carefully, and can see nothing untoward in his use of it.
I would anticipate it causing him no trouble, although obviously arthritis may be a problem in old age. He is exercised fully with their other dog. He will need ongoing training as the owners have really let this lapse. He is being rehomed as his owners had two 11 month old dogs in a small house and work a lot.
The dogs are competing for attention and ultimately top dog position as they mature. They have made the decision to rehome Hugo who is the more boisterous of the two.
The type of home we’re looking to place Hugo in is an active home due to his lineage. Observing him I could tell he is a very intelligent dog who likes to be on the go and occupied. He has not lived with children as the owners children are grown up.
He behaves well around children, although slightly wary of very small ones, purely as he has had no contact with them. He would suit a home where he is the only dog due to his leg but would be suitable for an older bitch who could tolerate his boisterous.
