HERO

Meet Hero! <br/><br/>Hero is exactly what his name says—a little hero with the biggest heart. This sweet boy was found outside an abandoned home, waiting loyally on the porch as if hoping his family would come back. Since then, he’s blossomed into a goofy, affectionate, and endlessly loving pup who just wants to be by your side. What Hero Loves Most<br/>Hero is all about joy and play! He lives for fetch, tug-of-war, and running through open fields (on leash or in a fenced space—he’s a sneaky escape artist!). Cardboard boxes, bully sticks, and safe chew toys are his absolute favorites, and he’ll happily shred paper towel rolls like it’s his job. After playtime, he loves nothing more than cuddles, belly rubs, and burrowing under the blankets with his person. At night, he’ll snuggle right up next to you—sometimes with his head on your chest, sometimes curled at your legs. He just wants to be close. Hero’s Personality<br/>This boy is friendly, excitable, and oh-so-curious about the world. He’s incredibly affectionate and has that fun, puppy-like energy that makes every day brighter. He’s very smart and eager to please, especially if treats, toys, or a happy tone of voice are involved. Hero doesn’t have a mean bone in his body—he’s non-reactive, not aggressive, and shows no resource guarding. He can get nervous when left alone (separation anxiety is real for him), so he needs a family that can give him love, reassurance, and time. <br/><br/>Quirks That Make Him Adorable <br/><br/>Loves car rides and will try to ride shotgun with his head on the console.<br/><br/>Gets the zoomies when he’s excited.<br/><br/>Calms down with music or TV in the background.<br/><br/>Chases shadows and light reflections like they’re his mortal enemies.<br/><br/>Jumps up to say hi—always out of pure excitement.<br/><br/>Eats super fast (a slow feeder bowl helps).<br/><br/>Power chewer—he needs good chew toys to keep him busy!<br/><br/> Training<br/> Hero already knows sit, stay, shake, drop it, off, and “look at me.” He understands his name and recall is getting stronger every day (especially when treats are involved). He’s working on leash manners and greeting people without jumping—he’s just so excited to make new friends! Crate training is still a work in progress, but he’s a fast learner with the right patience and positive reinforcement.<br/> <br/>Hero’s Perfect Home <br/>Hero is looking for an active, loving family who will let him be their shadow. He needs someone who doesn’t mind a cuddly bed buddy, who can give him lots of playtime and positive training, and who understands he can’t be left alone for long stretches. A fenced yard or committed leash walks are a must, since this little guy has both a high prey drive and a talent for escape artistry.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a loyal, silly, snuggly best friend who will make every day brighter, Hero is your boy. He’s been through a tough start, but he’s ready to give his whole heart to his forever family. Hero's adoption fee has been paid for with a donation from Tim Pantle
