fill in rural Kentucky—this resilient pup has blossomed in foster care. Kind volunteers initially built temporary shelter for Larry until ACDRA could arrange a proper foster home. Life on the Farm Larry has truly come alive in his foster home on a farm, where he loves running and playing with his foster siblings. He's sweet, outgoing, and affectionate with adults, though he hasn't been around children yet. His favorite activities include daily pack hikes, chewing bones, and swimming in the farm pond. At the end of each adventure-filled day, Larry's favorite spot is snuggled up with his foster dad on the sofa, followed by a peaceful night's sleep beside him. Larry is mostly house-trained and does well in his crate. He's mastered the doggie door and walks nicely on leash. He is highly food motivated and takes correction and redirection well, making basic training easily within reach. Ideal Home Larry will thrive with a confident, cattle dog-experienced owner who can provide clear boundaries, consistent daily training, and plenty of exercise. True to his cattle dog nature, he will try to nip your heels and loves chasing anything that moves—especially water from the hose! However, his chase instincts extend to cars, making a securely fenced yard essential for his safety. Areas for Continued Work While Larry hasn't shown resource guarding with his foster dad, he does need ongoing work on treat-related aggression with other dogs. With patience and consistent training, this behavior can be managed. Larry is neutered, microchipped, and current on all vaccinations and preventatives. He's ready to find his forever family! Larry is being fostered in Adamstown, MD. Contact his foster dad: kirkdrueygmail Complete an Application .acdra/adoption-application

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
