LARRY - BOXER / HOUND / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Boxer / Hound / Mixed (short coat). Meet Larry,a sweet and lovable boy who is ready to find his forever home! This charming 2–3-year-old, 50lb Boxer-Hound mix is a laid-back, easygoing pup with a heart full of affection. Larry gets along with everyone including kids and other dogs, making him a perfect addition to a home with furry (and human) friends. He’s also great on a leash, so walks are a breeze for this good boy. Larry’s personality shines with his loving, puppy-like nature. He’s always ready to show affection and enjoys being around people—so much so that he accompanies his foster mom to work fitting right in with the office routine. With his calm, intuitive presence, he could easily be considered a service dog, even without the official certification. During a recent visit to the orthopedist, it was discovered that Larry had previously been shot—an old injury that went undiagnosed until now. He needs to wear a boot on his left rear leg to support mobility and make it more comfortable for him to walk. Despite this, he remains resilient, gentle, and full of love Neutered and up to date on vaccines, Larry is all set for his next big adventure. This sweet boy made his way from Kentucky to New Jersey back in March and is now looking forward to a home where he can settle down for good If you’re ready to open your heart to a big, gentle lovebug like Larry, apply for adoption today at peace4paws/adoption-application.
