Pomeranian - Herbie - Small - Adult - Male - Dog
Herbie's Information:
July 4, 2012: Herbie was brought into a Humane Society in southwest Virginia by a woman who said he showed up at her house and she was unable to keep him. Because of overcrowding, the Humane Society was ready to euthanize him when a local volunteer offered to temporarily foster, and that gave BDRA time to find out about Herbie and to bring him to our BDRA foster home in June of 2012.
There are many GREAT things to say about Herbie! From his first moments in our home, he settled right in like he had lived here a long time. He is house trained and crate trained. He eats well and sleeps quietly through the night. He gets along well with our five other dogs and ignores the cat. He loves to go outside and walks well on a leash. He is friendly with everyone he meets. He also likes to ride in a car.
He sees very well with his left eye. His right eye is smaller and he has no vision in it; the cause for this is not known and right now he is on one daily eye drop to help with lubrication of the lid. He just got neutered and also got a dental done; his teeth are in great shape now! He hears well. He is a good weight for his frame. He is heartworm negative. His heart and lungs are good. It is hard to know his exact age but the estimate is that he is between 6 and 8 years old.
In the pictures posted of Herbie, some show him with long hair and some show him right after his grooming. He had long hair when he arrived at our home and it was beautiful and in very good shape, but we do not have air conditioning, so a summer haircut was in order so he will be comfortable until he is adopted. The groomer said he was very well-behaved!
Herbie is wonderful with adults and older children. As far as younger children go, Herbie has been with a four year old and an eight year old in his temporary foster home in southwest Virginia, and was very good with them. These children have been around small dogs in the past and knew to be gentle with Herbie, and Herbie really enjoyed them. It is expected that Herbie, as he is a gentle and very friendly dog, would be good around young children if those children know how to treat small dogs and, of course, are supervised as all very young children should be around all dogs.
Herbie is ready to settle down with his forever family. He would great for anyone who is looking for a terrific little pup.
