y corner of the world. Licorice is much more interested in exploring one very important place... your lap.
This adorable 3-month-old Basset Hound/Lab mix weighs approximately 16 lbs and has the cutest combination of a long body, short little Basset legs, and soulful puppy eyes that are impossible to resist. Seriously... he's almost too cute.
Licorice is a sweet, gentle boy who simply loves being with his people. If he had his way, he'd spend his day following you from room to room, soaking up belly rubs, curling up beside you on the couch, and reminding you that everything is better with a puppy cuddle.
While he'll happily play with his toys, chew on a good bone, and romp around with his dog friends, he's a little more thoughtful and cautious as he takes in the world around him. Once he knows he's safe, his loving personality shines through.
Licorice is:
Great with dogs of all sizes
Wonderful with people of all ages, including kids
Cat introduced with little reaction (though he may decide a kitty could make a fun playmate—he is still a puppy!)
Doing great with his house and crate training on a consistent schedule
Up to date on vaccines and preventatives
Microchipped
Will need to be neutered before 7 months of age
He may let out a few little puppy protests when it's time for his crate or puppy pen, but it's only because he'd much rather be snuggled up next to his favorite humans. Give him a moment, and he settles in nicely.
Fostered in York, PA
If you've been looking for a puppy with a gentle heart, a sweet soul, and enough cuteness to make everyone smile, Licorice is ready to become your new best friend.
Those tiny little legs, that long body, and that affectionate personality are just waiting to wiggle their way right into your heart.

We are PA Caring for K-9's, an all-breed dog rescue that is solely run by volunteers. Most of our dogs are rescued from high kill shelters in the South. If the dog is posted, they are still available! Once arriving, these dogs enter foster homes, as we do not have a shelter. We cannot adopt out dogs to a home with dogs that are not fixed or up to date on shots. If interested in adopting, please submit an application online at .pack9rescue. Our adoption fee for altered dogs is $350 and goes directly to saving the lives of more dogs. Our adoption fee for unaltered puppies will be $400 which includes a refundable $50 deposit upon receipt of spay/neuter certificate. Learn more about adopting from us or volunteering for us at .pack9rescue or check us out on Facebook for more information and a complete list of dogs available for adoption. .facebook/PaCaringForK9s/
