Hermey is a small young dog from a tough background—he came out of a house with too many animals and little human contact. Since being rescued, he's made real progress. He enjoys chasing and playing with other dogs, so a home with a canine buddy would suit him well, whether that buddy is big or small. Hermey remains pretty timid and will need someone patient to help build his confidence at his own pace. He is not fully potty trained yet, and crate and leash skills are still a work in progress. While he gets along fine with both cats and dogs, he's easily spooked and may run if startled, so don't let him outside unsupervised or leave open doors or windows. Families with young kids should make sure everyone is alert and understands how to help Hermey feel safe; he's still figuring this whole home thing out. Slowly, with the right guidance, Hermey will continue to come out of his shell. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
