Meet Hershey! 🎉 This adorable 1-year-old gentleman, affectionately known as Hershel when he's being a little naughty, is a delightful blend of Chinese Shar-Pei and Shiba Inu. This handsome pup tips the scales at around 30 pounds and is ready to melt your heart with his charm. ❤️ Now, let’s take a moment to feel what this resilient soul has been through. Hershey's journey began in a challenging environment—he spent his initial six months in a crowded home filled with around 20 other dogs. Can you imagine?🐾 So, it's no wonder he started off a bit shy on new adventures. But over the past six months in foster care, he has truly come into his own! 🌟 Hershey may take a minute to warm up to new faces, but once he does, oh boy, you better brace yourselves for love! He’s affectionate, eager for attention, and makes adorably hilarious attempts at winning you over. A few minutes of patience is all it takes, and you’ll find a loyal companion. This sweet boy has made impressive strides with his leash manners—he’s on a great trajectory and improving every day! 🎾 Although he enjoys the company of other dogs and would absolutely thrive with a furry friend to guide him, he could also do wonderfully as a solo companion. Just imagine the bonding moments! 🐕 Now, Hershey will do best in a quieter home with adults or older kids who can provide a stable and loving environment. And because he’s still mastering the art of potty training (with a belly band to help him at home), a fenced yard or a patient adopter willing to work on leash walks for potty breaks would be ideal. 🌳❤️ If you’re on the lookout for an affectionate, gentle spirit who embodies resilience and is ready for adventures and endless cuddles, Hershey is just waiting for you to sweep him off his paws! 🥰🐾 So don't wait—be the light Hershey needs in his new life. *Apply through the Buddy App* today to give this lovely boy the home he so deserves! ✨
