BARKUS - LABRADOR RETRIEVER / TERRIER / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Terrier / Mixed. Meet handsome Barkus! This sweet boy is a 60-pound lab mix. He is 5 years old. Barkus is looking for a forever family that will give him the life he deserves. Barkus has typical lab energy. He would make a great hiking buddy. Barkus enjoys spending time outside or inside, as long as play is involved! He is a happy guy that just wants company and a lap to lay on. Barkus is definitely a large lap dog, but he would not have it any other way and he feels size should not matter when it comes to being a lap dog. It showcases his silly nature and lovable personality. Barkus gets along well with other dogs and children. He would be a wonderful addition to a family with one or both in residence. Barkus has not met cats yet. Barkus likes entertainment in the form of retrieving a tennis ball. He simply loves it. Barkus is working on his leash training. He is a smart pup who aims to please, so he will surely pick up this important skill with the help of his new family. He is already ahead of the curve as he has already learned his house-training skills and his crate training. He is quiet in his crate and will patiently wait for his family to start the day. Although he is housetrained, it is important to remember that accidents can occur while adjusting to a new home environment.
