• “Hello I’m hades I love to play and get the zoomies I’ve never been around doggies so my owner will have me on a leash for the first little bit“

• “Hi! My name is hades and I a giant that thinks he’s little. I love EVERYBODY but I get too excited and jump which mom says is bad. I like food and sniffing and fetch and sniffing and ripping up stuffed toys… did I mention sniffing? Mom hates it when I bring her some things I find and then sometimes makes me go to the vet (cruel) especially the time I brought her a bunny skull. She’s a worry wort that way and takes away all the fun like that. I have a lot of energy but I can burn it fast depending on how many new scents or how many playmates are around. I knock little kids down even if I don’t jump cuz I try to rub up against them like cats do so mom typically keeps me away from younger kids (cruel right?! She’s sooo mean sometimes I lit her know tho) If I don’t want to do something I will let you know (mom says it’s “talking back”) Honestly ima very happy and trusting good boy but I forget about things like “personal space “ and “boundaries” (who needs those?!) pretty easily but I will cry or at least pout if I’m yelled at“
