Known as a Snuggle Champion, she loves belly rubs, back scratches, and close companionship. With soulful eyes, Hera lets you know when she wants more petting with a gentle paw tap. Calm and well-mannered at home, she’s fully house and crate trained and sleeps soundly through the night. Hera respects boundaries, waiting patiently for an invitation to join you on the couch while taking treats gently. She's already mastered commands such as “sit,” “come,” and “leave it,” and is eager for more learning.
