Hunter has quite the personality and interacts well with his foster family, including the 10 and 11 year old children in addition to the family's pet rabbit! Hunter is housetrained for the most part, other than an occasional accident if he is left alone, and able to roam the house rather than being restricted to a smaller area. Hunter does not like firecrackers. He will also chase a flashlight beam and bark at it. Hunter is a perfectly wonderful boy!! If you are looking for that special companion to share your home with, here he is!! Update: Hunter's foster home has a new puppy and Uncle Hunter is being very good about the new addition to the family. Please consider this boy today as he is one of those sweet boys that can steal your heart in a minute!
