Ernie is about 2.5 years old, but he often gets mistaken for a senior because of his white-muzzled face. Despite his mature look, he’s all heart and friendliness—he absolutely loves people. When local school kids visited, Ernie was in his element, soaking up every hug and pet without hesitation. He’s gentle with children, and his affectionate side shines brightest around them. However, Ernie needs a home without cats or small dogs, and he's particular about his big dog friends. If you're looking for an easygoing, people-loving companion with a gentle soul, Ernie could be just the right fit. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
