Ernest Hemingway Labrador Retriever & Shar-Pei Mix Springfield, MO

I wrote the "The Old Man and the Sea" as a homage to my own life. I have tried to not only prove my worth but have had to overcome many of life's challenges. I am Ernest Hemingway, a handsome middle aged (7-8 year old) 63 pound Lab/Shar-pei mix. Even though I won the Nobel Prize for Literature, I have carried around a lot of angst in my life. I have bouts of playfulness but mostly I am a laid back guy who loves car rides and pup cups. I get along with dogs, kids and cats. A home with a fenced back yard or an apartment would be fine for me! “The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong at the broken places.” Apply for me today!
