New!

Hi everyone! I am a 25 year old female living in NY. I work as a veterinary technician, as well as in a no-kill animal shelter, where I see all sorts of different types of dogs and cats.

I am owned by five cats and a 70lb Retriever mix named Hershey. He turned 6 years old this August and was adopted from a no-kill shelter as an 8 wk old little ball of fluff. There have been a lot of different opinions on what his mix is, but he is definitely some kind of Retriever. If you believe in the accuracy of the Mars Wisdom Panel, his results have him as a Cavalier KCS/Bloodhound/Flat Coated Retriever/Labrador Retriever/Dalmatian/Shar Pei mix - lol



Hershey in his full coat, before a trip to the groomers:






Thanks for looking!

He is just gorgeous. I think he is a chocolate golden retriever. That side view really clinched it for me. Can really see why you fell in love with him, such a sweetie. Bless you for working at the shelter. It must be hard not to walk out with all the cuties.

He is beautiful!! I can only IMAGINE what a ball of fluff he must have been as a puppy Thank you so much for all of the wonderful work you do for dogs who aren't lucky enough to have found their furever home yet!
