Behold: The Incredible Hulk of Real Life!

Meet Hulk!

At Dakin!

Meet Hulk! Hulk is a fun-loving, playful boy with a big personality and an even bigger smile. He absolutely loves being outside—whether it’s exploring the yard, playing fetch, or heading out for a walk. Food is one of his greatest motivators, and walks are one of his favorite adventures, though fair warning: Hulk is a strong and enthusiastic guy who’s very excited about where he’s going! This happy boy greets everyone he meets with a wagging tail, a joyful grin, and often a toy in his mouth, ready to invite you into a game of fetch. Hulk thrives on human attention and would love a home where he can soak up all the love for himself. He prefers to be the only dog in the home and likes to keep his food to himself, so a single-dog household would be his ideal match. He would do well in a home with teens and up.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion who’s full of energy, affection, and personality, Hulk is ready to be your one-and-only best friend.
