Larry is an active, affectionate guy with so much love to give! Just look in his eyes and you’ll know what true love really is. He is house broken, crate, and leash trained! Larry LOVES being outside and playing with his four-legged friends. He would love his furever home to have at least one other dog buddy. He has not been cat or kid tested. He would do best in a home with older kids (6+) since he’s a silly oaf who is still learning not to jump on everyone he meets (chain link fences, too). A privacy-fenced yard is a must. He plays hard and crashes harder! A tired dog is a good dog, and that is definitely the case with Larry! He is wicked smart and eager to learn. He has the most beautiful black coat and barely sheds, if at all. He is loyal to his person and wants to be by their side as much as possible. He eats and sleeps in his cage and you will always know when it’s mealtime! You won’t need to worry about setting any alarm clocks or timers with this guy! He knows sit, stay, roll over, paw, down, off, and so much more! He walks beautifully on a leash and stays with his person. He is the total package!

I am a graduate of the Pups for Parole training program. I have all the basic training necessary to make a great companion. I will need a family willing to continue my training, I sure don't want to forget all that I've learned!

(As a reminder, puppies will need lots of time and attention during the first year. Before adopting me, please make sure that you have enough time, energy and commitment to devote to my training.)

My adoption fee is $150 and includes my spay/neuter, vaccinations, wellness exam, heartworm test, and microchip! If you're interested in meeting/adopting me, please visit www.rescueonespringfield.com/our-adoption-process/adoption-application/ and fill out the form! We do adopt out of state with vet references and video home check. *Adopter is responsible for coming to get the dog and returning the dog if the adoption does not work out*
