He was found by a passerby driving through the park, and through no fault of his own, ended up in the shelter system.<br/><br/>Despite his rough start, Parker is an incredibly sweet, friendly boy. He loves people, does well with other dogs, and has the goofy, playful personality you expect from a young puppy. He is curious, affectionate, and eager to engage with the world around him.<br/><br/>Because Parker has not yet had the chance to be in a foster home, he is still learning the basics. He is not yet crate trained or potty trained and is working on leash manners. With a foster or adopter willing to provide patience, structure, and guidance, Parker has all the potential to become an amazing companion.<br/><br/>Parker would thrive in a home ready to help a young dog learn what it means to be safe, loved, and part of a family.<br/><br/>Age: 6–7 months<br/>Gender: Male<br/>Weight: Approximately 35 lbs<br/>Breed: Lab/Hound mix (best guess)<br/>Neutered: not yet<br/>Potty Trained: No<br/>Crate Trained: No<br/>Leash Manners: In progress<br/>Good with Dogs: Yes<br/>Good with Cats: Not tested<br/>Good with Kids: Yes<br/><br/>Parker is a sweet baby who did nothing wrong and deserves the chance to leave the shelter behind and start fresh.<br/><br/>If you can foster or adopt Parker, please apply today:<br/>www.muttlife.org<br/><br/>__________<br/><br/>Adoption fees include the cost of spay/neuter procedure, up-to-date dewormer, vaccinations, heartworm prevention (age appropriate), and certified veterinarian inspection within 30 days of adoption. <br/>__________<br/><br/>Review adoption requirements and ensure you meet the necessary criteria to apply!<br/><br/>https://www.muttlife.org/adoption-policies<br/>_________<br/><br/>ADOPTION PROCESS:<br/>1.)
