Hemingway's looking for a new chapter in life; will you be part of it?

Hemingway is still waiting for his forever home! This lovable pup, affectionately known as "Hemi" around the shelter, is a three-and-a-half-year-old bulldog mix. He is looking for a home where he can love and be loved by the right human!

This not Hemingway's first time at the shelter. This adorable guy originally came to CVHS in February 2017. His owner starved him and had another dog attack him to make it seem like he was a stray. After waiting for months, Hemi was adopted in a loving home. Unfortunately, he was only in this home for a little over a year. In October, Hemi returned to CVHS.

Hemi acts like a tough guy when meeting new people, as his troubled past makes him wary of strangers. Once he warms up to you, he just melts into a big baby! Hemi loves playtime, and you can find him tossing his toys around the room, even when there's no one to play with! He may be an active guy, but Hemi enjoys his downtime, too. He loves snuggling up for naptime, and will nuzzle right onto your lap if you let him!

Because of previous negative interactions, Hemingway needs to go to a home without any other dogs or cats, and with family members aged 14+. Low-traffic environments are ideal for Hemi, as he can get overwhelmed and anxious in hectic situations.

Hemingway has spent a combined total of over 160 days in shelter care. With almost no interest from potential adopters, he is anxious to find his true forever home.

Can you help Hemi get out of the shelter for good and into a home for the holidays? Come meet him at Cocheco Valley Humane Society at 262 County Farm Road in Dover, NH! For more information on adopting a pet, visit cvhsonline.org.
