Hulk - Labrador Retriever and Husky Dog for Adoption in West Jefferson, Ohio

Introducing Hulk!

This 5 month old cutie born approximately 02/03.2026 weighs about 40lbs, and we were told he is a Lancashire Heeler (we've never heard of it either) and Husky mix. He was found to have an injury to his back leg, which turned out to be broken and required surgery. He has made a complete recovery, and we are excited for him to be able to start doing meet and greets.
Honestly he's probably more Goofy than Hulk. And unlike his namesake, he has no big green alter-ego that we're aware of. He has all the grace and comic timing of Mr. Bean combined with the youthful exuberance of a puppy. He loves chew toys and is a huge fan of playing tug.
He takes treats gently and walks nicely, if a bit directionally challenged, on leash. We think he'd do well in a home with children, and cats, and probably dogs. Now that the cone of shame is off, we will be introducing him to some dogs at the shelter so stay tuned for an update.
