Meet Hercules
Hercules is a mighty name for such a little guy who only weighs 17 lbs! But, no worries, he has a mighty big personality and loves everyone he meets. Due to his owner being in poor health, this little guy has wound up with us. We know he will get adopted quickly! You can't help but fall in love with him. He is housebroken! His birthday is Saturday, Aug 8 and he will be 8 years old. Don't let that age stop you, he is a spry little guy! He has not lived with children, but we're sure older children will not be a problem for him.
