The Dogs of Hebron By Nora Tobey ‘24 Socrates AKA Socs Socs is a Bernese Mountain Dog and was adopted because the woman running a wilderness first aid course at Hebron said that “Berners” were great with kids, good for families, and make great family pets. Socrates is a big love bug, who doesn’t quite realize how big he is and he is terrified of Ms. Waterman's cat, Flicker, who doesn’t like him very much. He’s the first dog they’ve had as a family.
Oscar Oscar was adopted on New Year’s Day in 2019. According to DNA tests, he’s a mix of a lot of dogs, such as husky, mountain cur, Australian cattle dog, collie, coonhound, and golden retriever. Apparently he is also 15.6% supermutt, but no one really knows what that means. He is friendly towards people but is a bit more selective with his canine pals, which has apparently gotten him expelled from doggie day care before. He prefers spending the day on his many beds. He’s best friends with Bear and is enemies with all of the squirrels that are out of his reach.
