Meet Herkie
Hello my nam e is Herkie! I am 13-14 year old yellow lab weighing around 60 pounds. I really like getting pets and attention from my humans and don't forget the walks, I really love walks! I will thrive in a home by myself since I love getting all the pets. My two other favorite things to do in my foster home are napping and eating as I am very treat motivated. Since I am a foodie I should be fed separately in the home from others to help to avoid any extra stress and anxiety for me. I am currently working on building up trust with my foster family learning that they will come back since I have a fear of abandonment from my past. I am potty trained and am a good boy with a great mixture of being chill and wanting to relax with my humans and still have energy for walks, but I sure love trotting around the fenced in yard. I am crate trained but I free roam in the house when my foster family is gone. My foster mom says I am a handsome boy with a great smile looking for a forever home to call mine. I might be a senior dog but I have so much love to give and I really want my own family to love for the rest of my life so skip the crazy puppy stage and come see me! Herkie's adoption fee is $250 and includes his neuter, microchip, current vaccinations and monthly preventatives. Herkie is seeking an indoor only home. Last Hope requires that all animals be kept as indoor pets only, kept current on vaccinations and preventatives and be altered. Our adoption process includes a vet history check as well as a home visit, please submit an adoption application on our website if you would like to meet Herkie!
