Happy go lucky little Huxley has a wise gentle soul and the sweetest disposition.. he's definitely been around the block a time or two.. We believe he's a senior, maybe 9-10 years old. He's got crooked teeth with an adorable underbite and fold over ears that he'll flop back and forth all by himself.. he'll do it on purpose too! Almost in a way to communicate to you that he's pleased or needs something! Hilarious! Hux is incredibly endearing with a kind heart.. all he wants to do is love and understand. He is an absolute LAP DOG and adores being held! He's totally content being on the ground as well BUT if you're looking for a little cuddle, lapdog buddy.. look no further! Hux is your man.
Huxley may have a few grey hairs but he is an active guy who logs in 1-3 mile walks a day! AND he could easily go for more! Hux has a joyful, chest first, swingy paw prance that grabs quite a bit of attention! He's is well socialized.. pretty much expects other dogs to be polite and well educated in dog proper greeting rituals.. he's introduced himself to big dogs like TJ, Jack and Finney and has made great friend with travel companion, Magnolia! Huxley is a get along kinda guy.. so would be a pleasant pal for another dog ..or two living in his adoptive home.
Huxley is a people person.. he easily makes friends and has a way of wiggling his way into people's hearts... he forms strong bonds with and will BFF with whoever is lucky enough to take him home.. Huxley has captured the heart of our trainer Jamie and the feeling is mutual! Huxley will look for Jamie as she walks by and asks to be picked up and walked around! When in the office, Huxley will politely ask to be placed on Jamie's lap and even though he wants to enjoy every second of getting loved on.. he will start to nod off.. resist.. nod off.. wake himself up.. eyes close again and finally unable to fight sleep anymore Huxley will literally fall over and collapse into a nap! He really is a loyal pup would likely enjoy being his new owners shadow... but here he is completely content being alone for spells while we all continue with the day. He is an easy going guy who is fun to have around..
It appears that much of what goes on at the farm is new to Hux. He isnt freaked out or anything but we can see hes observing things with a sense of wonder! Clearly walking on a leash is completely nonsensical to him!! He'll happily trundle along as long as he is into the direction of travel.. if however one of his besties walks by & he'd far rather head their way for a hello Huxley may "buck" and thrust himself against the leash & nibble the clip... happy sounds and tasty treats help him switch gears and regain his willingness to walk along!!! He has already got the hang of how it all works and seeks the leash when his handler arrives at walk time! We have no idea what his life was like before he came to us but we noticed when he first got here even the sight of passing cars and people get his attention.. Hux is taking all of the new surroundings in stride, though, and totally accepting things that were initially a cause for concern. Now when a car goes by he takes a step to the side and watches with awe... it's very cute actually.. observing his mind work to understand the many moving parts. of life at the farm
Trust me when I tell you that Huxley is an DREAM in a little dog body. To think that someone just dropped him off at the shelter with his sweet nature and old age is heartbreaking.. he has found a forever safe place with us and he will make whoever adopts him the happiest by just being himself! <3
