Hiccup

As adorable as his name, Hiccup had quite a setback prior to coming to the Arizona Humane Society when his previous owner was unable to care for him anymore. The loving American bulldog is 4 years old and quite possibly the goofiest pup currently at AHS.

Luckily for this sweet pup, he was found in great condition with a beautiful dispositio­n. Goofy, loving and high energy, Hiccup would do best in an active home that can give him plenty of time to get his wiggles out both physically and mentally.

Weighing in at just under 70 pounds, the handsome pup is quite strong and would benefit from having an owner who is not only familiar with large dogs but also can keep up with his excitement for walks. Although physical exercise will be important for Hiccup, he will also need mental stimulatio­n to keep his mind active and keep his brain nice and healthy.

Hiccup promises to put a smile on your face and loves meeting new people but will need to meet the whole family to make sure it is the perfect fit. Potty Hiccup weighs in at just under 70 pounds. The loving American bulldog is 4 years old and quite possibly the goofiest pup currently at AHS. He needs an owner who can keep up with his excitement.

trained, this pup knows sit, shake and lay down and will do just about anything for treats, even taking them out of your hand like a gentleman. Although snacks are a great way to this goof ’s heart, belly rubs do the trick every time.

HOW TO ADOPT: Hiccup will be available May 27 at noon at the Arizona Humane Society’s Campus for Compassion, 1521 W. Dobbins Road in Phoenix. Hiccup’s adoption fee includes his neuter surgery, current vaccinatio­ns, a microchip and a free follow-up wellness exam with a VCA Animal Hospital.
