Meet Hershey
Introducing Hershey, the 3-year-old, 60-pound bundle of chocolatey goodness who's ready to melt your heart! This handsome Lab mix is the epitome of a gentle giant—good-natured, affectionate, and just as sweet as his name suggests.
Hershey is the perfect companion, whether you're looking for an active playmate or a laid-back buddy to chill with on the couch. He's a pro at taking treats gently, sitting politely for his meals, and even offering a friendly paw shake when he’s feeling extra charming. And don’t let his size fool you—this big guy knows his manners! He’s house-trained, crate-trained, and never makes a mess in the house. At night, you’ll find him snoozing away in his crate or stretching out on his favorite dog bed (or maybe even your chesterfield if you let him!).
When it comes to socializing, Hershey is all about making new friends—both two-legged and four-legged. He loves playing tug-of-war with his foster sister and is gentle as can be with younger dogs. With people, he's a total sweetheart, welcoming pets and attention from anyone who crosses his path. Got company over? Hershey’s all in for some belly rubs and friendly greetings.
Hershey is the kind of dog who adapts to just about any home. He’d thrive in a lively, active household where he can romp around and play to his heart’s content. But he’s equally content with a slower pace, making him a great match for a more relaxed lifestyle. Just give him a fenced yard to play in, a few good walks, and some quality cuddle time, and he’s the happiest pup on the block.
One thing to keep in mind—Hershey’s got a bit of a sweet tooth when it comes to kitchen counters. If you leave food near the edge, he might just help himself to a snack! But with his big heart and gentle nature, that’s a quirk you’ll easily overlook.
If you’re looking for a big, lovable goofball who’s as sweet as they come, Hershey is your guy. He’s ready to bring endless joy, wagging tails, and maybe a little mischief into your life. Are you ready to welcome this chocolatey treat into your home? Hershey can’t wait to be your new best friend!
Medical Note:
Hershey is currently undergoing treatment for heartworms using the Moxi-doxy protocol. He is not at a stage where he can transmit heartworms to other animals, and his treatment can be continued in his adoptive home. The cost of this treatment will be fully covered by our rescue.
