Description:

Meet Hercules: A Spirited Companion Seeking Guidance! Hercules, a young and energetic canine, is on a quest for a loving home that can provide the structure and guidance he craves. This active dog is brimming with potential, but he requires some attention to basic obedience and impulse control to truly shine. Hercules is a social and friendly dog with a history of enjoying the company of people. However, his exuberance and guarding tendencies, especially around food and high-value items, indicate a need for an experienced and patient adopter.Due to Hercules' guarding behavior and size, it is recommended that he be placed in a home without children under the age of 12. The adopter should be committed to establishing a consistent daily routine that includes walks, mealtime, training, play, and enrichment. Teenage dogs like Hercules thrive on structure, and consistency is key to his success. Hercules has displayed reactivity towards other dogs, particularly when on leash and will need a home that can help him with slowly desensitizing him to the presence of other dogs. Additionally, Hercules shows sensitivity during vet visits, and the adopter is advised to seek out a Fear Free Certified vet clinic, discussing the possibility of medication with their private vet. Hercules is a spirited and affectionate companion with the potential to be an outstanding family member. With the right guidance, patience, and consistent training, he can overcome his challenges and become a well-rounded and loving addition to a caring home. If you're ready to embark on this journey with Hercules, he promises a lifetime of loyalty, love, and adventures. Come and meet Hercules at the Anti-Cruelty Society!If you have any questions or would like to adopt Hercules, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
