Hershey is an affectionate goofball is always ready to greet you with a wagging tail and a happy face, and makes for a fabulous snugglebug. She gets along well with other dogs, making her a great addition to a family with canine companions (but would need to have a little blind date with them first to make sure the chemistry is there).
