• “I may be little, but I'm a giant in spirit. I love people and polite ME-sized dogs. Very polite bigger dogs are okay too, so long as they respect my personal space. I LOVE people and exploring new places“

  — Jody E.

• “I rescued Hagrid from a shelter off a kill list, he spent almost his entire life in the shelter (6mos-3yrs). My sweet boy has a lot of behavioral problems. With muzzle and truck training his quality of life has improved although he is dog aggressive and is not favorable to most people.“

  — Daisy B.

• “I’m Hagrid, a teenage Newfoundland dog. I am a smart boy. I am at an age where I get so excited I forget my manners. I love every one I meet but can jump and forget about personal space.“

  — Sharon F.

• “Goofy and playful, he was the lucky pup of Molly’s that got to stay with his family since birth. Smart and curious, he sometimes forgets that he is not the size of his sister Luna. In fact, maybe his head is the only thing similar in size. Loves his cuddles, his people, car rides, treats and to play, he is a giant puppy.“

  — Kerrie J.

• “Hagrid recently turned 1 year old on September 16th. He is so sweet, not at all rambunctious, and can be goofy too. We have been working with our vet/behaviouralist as Hagrid has begun to display leash reactivity symptoms (barking at oncoming dogs and people; lunging toward other dogs and/or people). He gets along very well with other dogs when off-leash, but we are currently avoiding public off-leash parks to reduce his barking habits. Was recommended to sign up for Sniffspot as we are looking for private outdoor safe spaces for Hagrid to run free, play fetch, sniff around, etc.!“
