I have owned a purebred Lab, whom I adopted when he was one year old and kept until he died. Hero was part Lab himself. so I am very familiar with Labs.If you need a sibling for Hero, you might want to try a Lab. They have a ridiculous tolerance for temperature extremes. I've had one full and two crosses. They were all quite happy with sub-freezing temps and NM 100F summers. On the border in AZ, CBP uses them for 10 hour shifts in 100F weather, which they are still enthusiastic about. German Shepherds are tuckered out after 4 hours in these conditions.
I am not sure where you got the idea I wanted a sibling for Hero, however. Hero got cancer at a very early age (six) and died tragically in February 2023.
