A little about them
Meet Hercules! He's an adorable, sweet, and affectionate cattle dog mix who has been with us for a while. Hercules is a smart and active boy who thrives on having a daily purpose and plenty of exercise, which can be hard to provide in a shelter environment. Due to his time in a kennel, he's developed some anxiety, but a behavioral trainer has noted he's a great dog with no aggression, as long as his boundaries and triggers are respected and handled appropriately. He truly needs an active outlet for his energy!
Ideal Home
Hercules would do best with adopters who are experienced with herding breeds and understand how to support a dog with anxiety. He needs an active family that can provide him with consistent daily exercise, a calm and reassuring environment, and respect for his individuality and boundaries.
Ongoing Health
Hercules has developed anxiety due to his time in the kennel.
Training & Support
He needs an adopter who can help him manage his anxiety through exercise and a consistent routine, respecting his boundaries and triggers.
