HERCULES - BOXER / LABRADOR RETRIEVER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Boxer / Labrador Retriever / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 550. Meet Hercules! Boxer/Lab Mix | ~26 lbs | Born ~Feb 16 Hercules might sound like a big name, but this guy is all heart and charm. At around 5 months old, this sweet Boxer/Lab mix is the total package—smart, snuggly, playful, and incredibly easy to love. Hercules is coming along beautifully with his potty training, is eager to learn, and picks up on new routines quickly. He knows his name and comes running when called, tail wagging and ready for love. He’s also a big fan of toys, and when he’s not busy playing, he’s more than happy to curl up for a snuggle session. Hercules does great in a kennel and currently sleeps loose in the bedroom with the resident Labrador. If he needs to go in the middle of the night, he uses his potty pad like a pro. He gets along wonderfully with the Labrador and even likes the outdoor cat! While he’d do well in a variety of homes—whether with other pets, kids, or a single person—his ideal match would be someone who’s home much of the day and has kids 8 and older to match his gentle, playful energy. Hercules is truly one of those once-in-a-lifetime pups. He’s smart, sweet, adaptable, and ready to become someone’s perfect companion. .
