My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


Meet Hernes — a gentle, dignified soul with an Alaska-sized heart.

At 6 years old and 58 lbs, this Alaskan Malamute mix brings calm, quiet charm everywhere he goes. Hernes walks beautifully on leash and enjoys taking in the world at a relaxed pace. He loves attention and melts into affection — whether it`s soft pets or a long grooming session. In fact, brushing time is one of his favorites; he’ll stand perfectly still and soak up every moment like the royalty he knows he is. With his easy nature and loving personality, Hernes would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a peaceful, steady friend. If you’re ready for loyalty, love, and a beautiful bond, Hernes would be honored to meet you.
- Calm
- Well-mannered on walks
- Loves brushing and affection

Hernes is ready to find the home he deserves — could it be yours?
