Hercules's Profile

Hi, I’m Hercules!

The staff at the OHS call me a Performer! Performers love being at the centre of attention and are usually excited to meet all types of people, often introducing themselves! Performers need a high amount of exercise daily, and would love a daily hike, jog, bike ride, or long session of fetch every day. To work their minds, Performers usually love the excitement of food puzzles, frozen treats, training games, and hide-and-seek!

Performers need to be integrated into the family and are usually pretty fun to take out and about for family activities – they love being where the action is! After a good day of socializing and exercising, you’ll usually find Performers flopped down next to you to enjoy some quality sleep time. If you’re looking for an active, social companion, then you’ll have lots of fun with a Performer!

Being without my loved ones causes me stress and anxiety. I will need a family with lots of time and patience to help me learn to enjoy my time alone.

I have allergies!

I have handling sensitivities!

I am looking for a home with NO kids!

I am a “Foster-Me-First” adoption. You can find more information about the Foster-Me-First Program at https://ottawahumane.ca/adopt/adoption-faq/#answer14 or call to speak to the adoption team.

If you are interested in setting up an appointment to adopt me, please complete an adoption application at https://ottawahumane.ca/adopt/adoption-application/. Please be advised that although we do offer on-the-spot-adoptions, this is dependent on appointment schedules and cannot be guaranteed.

Adoption Centre visitor hours:
Tues-Fri 12pm to 7pm
Sat-Sun 11am to 5pm

Items you must have with you:


Proof of Address
Photo ID

A collar, leash and other pet supply needs can be purchased at the time of adoption as the OHS has an excellent selection of these items. All proceeds from your purchases from the OHS Buddy & Belle Boutique support the animals at the OHS.
