Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Hercules, an adult dog with a zest for life that`s as large as his namesake. His energetic and playful nature makes every day an adventure. His interests include car rides, fetch, toys, water, and wrestling. He`s friendly to all he meets, with an independent streak that`s balanced by his loyalty. He`s protective and always alert, making him a great companion. Hercules is a social butterfly who prefers the company of humans over other dogs and he never wants to be by himself. He is friendly and tolerant of dogs and likes to rough house so you should probably bring your dog to meet him. At 75 pounds, he can be a bit intimidating. He behaves well at the dog park. He isn`t fond of cats. In a previous home, he was easygoing, friendly, and playful with children but he hasn`t been around any recently and he is much bigger and stronger now. Hercules knows the sit command and is house trained and leash trained, so he`s ready for walks in the park or just hanging out at home. Hercules can get excitable, but his affectionate nature shines through, always ready to give you a lick or a wag of his tail. His personality is as big as his heart. Hercules is looking for a forever home where he can share his love and energy. His loyalty and protective nature make him a wonderful addition to any family. Adopt Hercules and gain a loyal, loving, and lively friend for life. (tw 12/18/2024)
