This pup is sweeter than chocolate! Hershey is a great mix of introvert and extrovert, enjoys meeting new people and animals but is happy to then take a nap in his favorite cozy spot. He's currently fostered in a fun home with lots of other dogs, goats and chickens! He has not been cat tested but has also zero prey drive, so his foster suspects he would be fine with kitty siblings too. Kids are great and he would enjoy living in a home with older kids, especially if they know how to give him treats!
Hershey is up for anything, just happy to be your sidekick or relax close by. He is well mannered and knows basic commands. He is dog friendly, but prefers slow intros with bigger dogs and he's not afraid to be clear about his boundaries. He's great on car trips so happy to tag along to dog friendly places, enjoying getting to say hi to everyone. He's then happy to come home for a snooze!
Hershey is great on a leash, but would also enjoy a yard of his own. He's looking for a family that can appreciate how sweet he can be and is ready to welcome him with open arms, could this home be yours?
Hershey is fostered in the Cottage Grove, WI area
