Meet Hershey! This 7-month-old Miniature Australian Shepherd weighs 15 pounds and is full of potential. Hershey is still adjusting to his surroundings and needs an understanding family who will support him as he builds confidence at his own pace. As a nervous puppy, he thrives with gentle encouragement and positive experiences. He requires a home with another confident, dog-friendly canine to help him feel secure and provide a good role model. Proper training and socialization will be vital as he grows into a well-rounded companion, so adopters should be prepared for the time and patience this journey requires. Hershey also needs a securely fenced yard where he can safely explore and play. An in-person meet and greet at our shelter is necessary to ensure that Hershey will be a good fit alongside any resident dogs in the home. With love and guidance, Hershey can flourish into a cherished family member. He’s ready to discover that the world surrounding him is a safe and joyful place. Start your journey with Hershey today!
