Meet Hershey!
Hershey is a handsome 3-year-old Brittany being fostered in Indiana with the classic personality the breed is known for—happy-go-lucky, affectionate, and always ready for his next adventure. Weighing in at a healthy 40 pounds, he's the perfect combination of playful energy and sweet companionship.
Hershey loves being with his people and happily soaks up attention, especially ear rubs and butt scratches. When it's time to play, squeaky balls and his beloved Wubba toy are among his favorites. He enjoys romping with other dogs and plays nicely with his canine friends. His experience with cats is unknown.
As a young Brittany, Hershey has plenty of natural curiosity and wants to investigate everything around him. He loves going for walks and riding in the car, making him an excellent companion for an active family. He is still polishing his leash manners, but with consistency and continued training, he'll continue to improve.
Hershey is both house-trained and kennel-trained. He lets you know when he needs to go outside by going to the door or coming to find you. He's a well-mannered boy who knows the command "sit," takes treats gently, and has no issues with resource guarding. In fact, he's been comfortable having toys and treats taken from him and has remained gentle, even during energetic play. He isn't a jumper and has a wonderfully sweet nature.
While Hershey enjoys affection, he's also a bit independent. If you lift him onto your lap, he's perfectly content to cuddle, but he won't invite himself onto the furniture. Like many young sporting dogs, his recall could use some work, so a securely fenced yard or commitment to leash safety will be important while he continues his training.
Hershey is in excellent health with clear eyes, clean ears, healthy teeth and gums, a shiny coat, and an ideal weight. He'll let you know when someone passes by the house, making him a good little watchdog without being overbearing.
If you're looking for a fun-loving, affectionate Brittany with a gentle heart, playful spirit, and plenty of potential, Hershey may be the perfect addition to your family. With love, continued guidance, and an active home, this sweet boy is sure to become a loyal and devoted companion.
