When Hendrix arrived in Nova Scotia he was extremely thin and suffering from pneumonia
This six-month-old lab mix, who is from Texas, is now in a foster home and being the lovable, energetic pup he was meant to be.
Hendrix would love to be in a home where someone is with him much of the time. He loves to snuggle up on a couch or in bed with his person, go for walks and drives, and play with toys.
He is good with cats and with other dogs and doesn’t have problems with children, although he might accidentally knock down smaller ones.
Hendrix is neutered, microchipped and vaccinated, and is available for adoption from Save A Life Canada Animal Rescue ($450 adoption fee). For more information visit www.salcars.ca
