Herbie Shepherd & Hound Mix Sagaponack, NY

Herbie is the big brother and best friend we all wanted in high school. He is handsome, athletic, smart and has a genuinely good heart. He’s a little slow to trust new humans but once he knows you he’s extremely loyalHe is dog selective and may get along with a laid back medium to large FEMALE dog, but not male dogs. He has a strong prey drive so no smaller dogs or cats. If you are looking for a dog with movie star looks, loves to play and has a beautifully noble character then waste no time in applying to adopt Herbie! He is ready for his loving forever home!

Herbie is a ~ 3 1/2-year old, 60 lbs  Shepherd/Hound mix.  He is being fostered in New Paltz, NY. He is a very active dog; and needs lots of exercise (and not in a dog run or park with other dogs), he is NOT a couch potato, so he needs a home with a 6-foot fenced backyard and active, engaged savvy dog humans.  His foster mom says : “He is completely housebroken, can follows basic commands; sit, stay, come.  He will sit and await permission before eating. He loves walks and requires a lot of exercise, I usually walk him about 4 miles a day.  He is affectionate in his own way. He will put his nose right in your face and just stay there!  He will also put his head in your lap or push it into your hand when looking for attention. Herbie doesn't love the car because he hasn't experienced it very much.” His ideal home would have another confident, friendly, playful dog friend as a role model because he is a bit shy and will need to adjust. Herbie is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

The adoption fee is $500.  We require a 6-foot fully fenced yard and not an invisible fence.
