Hutch - Hound and Labrador Retriever Dog for Adoption in Chatham, New Jersey

My name is Hutch! I am about 6.5 years old and 55 lbs. I am in a wonderful foster home in CT and I am the full package. I love people. I have been around kids too without any issue; they are great so no problem there. I am extremely loyal and love to be close but I am not annoying. :) I am good with other dogs. I live with two dogs in my foster home and I am respectful. I like to play and I enjoy their company! I can easily live as an only dog; I have enough confidence and independence where that won't be a problem. But dog friends are welcome. I am completely housebroken and trustworthy. No crate needed! I am fine for a few hours if my people need to go out. I walk well on leash and have fun going out and about. I am medium energy. I love my entertainment and exercise but I am a master at cuddling on the couch and just chilling too. Toys? I am a fan of stuffies and love to carry them around in my mouth. I am a wonderful age with a lot of years ahead. Don't let my number scare you - who really wants to train a puppy these days?! I am good with kids of all ages! Cats might not be the best fit for me. I am located in CT. If you are interested in me, here is a link to the application: https://www.zivadogrescue.org/adoptable-dogs
