Herbie is a ~ 2 1/2 year old, 60 lbs\xa0 Shepherd/Hound mix.\xa0 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.\xa0 His foster mom says : “He is completely housebroken, can follows basic commands; sit, stay, come.\xa0 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.\xa0 He is affectionate in his own way. He will put his nose right in your face and just stay there!\xa0 He will also put his head in your lap or push it into your hand when looking for attention. Herbie doesnt love the car because he hasnt experienced it very much.”\xa0 Herbie needs a home with no small dogs, no cats, and young kids.\xa0 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.\xa0 Herbie is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

The adoption fee is $500.\xa0 We require a 6-foot fully fenced yard and not an invisible fence.
