Hudson, age 7

My name is Hudson, and I am a Maltipoo, or that is what my family has deduced from my similar traits. White soft fur, big black eyes, and a black and pink nose – and I talk to express my happiness when family comes home. I just celebrated my fourth year with my rescue family – Melanie, Bob, Cameron, Morgan and Meagan of Spring Valley – who had not had a dog in 18 years due to allergies until I came along. I was in the Small Paws Rescue program, which I highly recommend – and thanks to Val and Edwin – a picture of me was shown to my now-family, and it was love at first sight! We live on Heather Circle, which is a fabulous, quiet cul-de-sac. The neighbors all know me because I love morning and night-time walks. We are one very happy family.
