A little bit about Herbie

Don't scroll past this face! Herbie is a 2-year-old Labrador x German Shorthaired Pointer mix with a gentle, loving soul who's looking for his person - and he might just be looking for you.

This handsome boy is the perfect mix of affectionate and sensitive. Herbie lives for cuddles - once he knows you. Like many dogs with pointer in their genes, he's likely to be a bit of a Velcro dog, happiest when he's close to his people. But he's also a little head shy, so it's important to let him come to you on his own terms. Give him a bit of space and time to warm up, and you'll earn a loyal shadow for life.

Herbie is still young and can get a bit boisterous when he's excited, but his love of treats makes him a great candidate for training - he wants to please, and food is definitely the way to his heart. With consistency and patience, he'll thrive.

He's lived with other dogs before and may be a good fit for a home with a calm, compatible canine friend. Whether he's your one-and-only or part of a pack, what Herbie really needs is a kind, patient home that will let him settle in and shine.

If you're looking for a sweet, sensitive companion who's equal parts cuddlebug and goofball, Herbie might just be your perfect match.
