HOBO - LABRADOR RETRIEVER / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Mixed. Adoption Fee: $350. "H" is for Happy, Hugs, and Hobo. Hobo is the happiest dog there ever was. He is estimated to be a little over 1 year old and 60 lbs. Some of his favorite things are balls, food and giving hugs. He sleeps quietly in his crate all night and has been accident free in his foster home so far. Hobo spent a lot of his puppy hood in the shelter, so he missed out on some basic manners. He will need some continued training, especially with jumping and mouthing . Hobo seems to be very trainable, is eager to please and works hard for his treats. Hobo was a total gentleman at our last meet & greet and was happy to meet all kinds of new people. He absolutely adores kids, but because of his size and needed training, we would recommend he only live with kids 8 years and up. He loves dogs, but is also learning how to play appropriately with them and read their signals. He would also be fine as a solo dog. With a some consistency and a little patience, Hobo is going to be an awesome addition to the family! This handsome fellow is sure to steal someone's heart. If you are interested in Hobo please email us at almosthome4dogsyahoo. (Local adoptions preferred — Philadelphia and tri-state area [South Jersey and northern Delaware] only.)

We cannot adopt to homes where electric-shock fencing systems or training collars are used.
