Male Dog, Labrador Retriever
Labrador Retriever / Border Collie / Mixed (Short Coat)
Description:
Harley is a larger dog, and fluctuates between high-energy and couch potato. He adores running around and playing, but is equally content to be a snuggle-boy on a couch or bed with his person. He is intelligent and eager-to-please, learning new tricks quickly and well. He is also very food oriented, which again, leads to easy training. Reactive: Harley is reactive, particularly when nervous. He growls semi-regularly, and barks at other dogs or people. If particularly on-edge, he will snap, though hasn’t broken skin. Proper precautions do need to be taken, and he is willing to wear a muzzle when tense interactions are expected. He has gone through a class for reactive dogs, and is better than he was originally, but patience and an experienced dog-owner is a must. Harley needs a home without children or other animals. He might get along ok with smaller animals – his foster family has chickens that he sees regularly – but hasn’t lived with any to our knowledge. A dog door would be his preference – he adores getting to go in-out-in-out! He is fairly gentle on his toys when not stressed, though if stressed he does have a tendency to shred stuffed toys and ropes. Bones and ropes are his favorites, though he does also like the occasional squeaky. Harley is the most genuinely pleased dog you will ever meet. He adores love and attention, and shows that appreciation with enthusiasm. You will never doubt you are loved with this dog. At Laramie Animal Welfare Society, the first step to adoption is completing an adoption application on our website www.laramieanimals.org. Once submitted, your application will be reviewed by our adoption team which typically takes 7+ days. Keep in mind, the animal you’re interested in when applying may be adopted and no longer available by the time your application is approved. We do not place animals on hold. Pending approval, your application is valid for 6 months. Also pending approval, you will receive contact information, so that you may inquire about the personalities of specific animals. Adoptions for individual animals will occur by private adoption appointment. Because we are 100% foster-based, appointments are scheduled pending staff, foster home, and vetting schedules. Should you want to proceed with the adoption, a brief appointment will occur at our adoption center to sign adoption paperwork, receive medical records, and pay the adoption fee. **Dog/Puppy applications - Because of the large volume of dog/puppy applications we are receiving these applications may take longer to process, please be patient. We do not do first come first serve but we place the dog/puppy in the best suited home. If you have questions about the Dog/Puppy process please email [email protected]**
