About Hercules

A sweet and sensitive lad who enjoys human company when he is not following his nose. He loves sniffing and exploring on walks and can be quite independent, so will need to be kept on lead until he becomes more responsive outdoors. He also has a stubborn streak. At home he is affectionate and often seeks attention. He has shown some reactivity towards other dogs in care, so needs owners confident in managing this and committed to his training. He arrived as a stray in a sorry state but has been tolerant and well-behaved for his treatments.
