WINSTON (FORMERLY LIAM) - LABRADOR RETRIEVER / BULLDOG / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Bulldog / Mixed (short coat). Winston (formerly Liam) was adopted to a young man & his mom adopted his sibling. Unfortunately, now that they are backing living under one roof, the boys are not getting along, it happens with siblings. Sadly, the family has decided to rehome Winston, they want him to have the best life & not have to always worry about separating the 2 boys. Winston is a handsome pit bull terrier mix with a big heart and an even bigger love for adventure. He’s an energetic guy who thrives on outdoor fun—hiking, playing fetch with his favorite ball, and chasing sticks are some of his absolute joys. After a day of activity, Winston is more than happy to curl up and cuddle with his people. Winston would do best as the only dog in the home, where he can soak up all the love and attention. While he gets along with most dogs, he has had an issue with his littermate, so a single-dog household is the best fit for him. He’s fully house-trained, knows his name, and comes when called. Winston walks beautifully both on and off leash and is a great companion for active families or individuals. He also loves relaxing with a good bone or durable chew toy and is happiest when he has something sturdy to gnaw on. Loyal, affectionate, and always up for an adventure, Winston is ready to be a devoted best friend to the right home! **Winston is in the Pennington, NJ area.

The pups, only 7-8 weeks old at the time, had not received any of their required vaccinations or de-wormings and were left to roam freely around the property which was littered with trash, broken down vehicles and other unsanitary conditions. upon their arrival to SoCo Rescue, we immediately began administering their vet care. Liam is a very playful, friendly and well socialized pup. We found out during his photo shoot that he loves the water as Liam and all of his siblings made a dash towards our pond and jumped in it! We're expecting him to grow to be a large dog. Liam is great candidate as a family companion Liam has now received all of his first year "puppy" vaccinations, de-wormings and other preventative care. He's also been started on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. Liam's adopter must agree to having him neutered once he reaches 6 months of age and provide verification of such to our rescue. Liam will need all of his basic training.
