Hershey, the Dog of the Day
Name: Hershey
Age: Nine months old
Gender: Male Breed: Mutt
Home: Frederick, Maryland, USA
 
   Hershey was adopted from Morgan County, WV, Humane Society. Though Hershey came to us only a short time ago, he has carved his place in our family and in our hearts. From the hour-and-a-half ride home from the shelter, I knew that this was a special dog. He literally hugged my hand with his paws the whole way home. Carefully, he plays with my children like he has been with them for ever. Like his famous look-a-like Benji, Hershey is quite clever and has quickly learned several tricks - earning him an abundance of love and treats. Above all else, when I am frustrated and a little blue, he hops up on my lap, puts one paw on each of my shoulders and plants a huge kiss on my nose. I can't help but smile.
