Licorice is searching for his new best friend—could that be you? Born in May 2023 and weighing about 50 lbs, Licorice is a German Shepherd/mixed breed with a glossy black coat and a standout white star on his chest. He started life in East Texas, abandoned with his siblings until a Good Samaritan and Cody's Friends Rescue stepped in. All his sisters have found homes, but Licorice is still waiting for his forever family. This young dog is lively and loves a green collar, anything that squeaks, and digging around in gardens if you aren’t watching. Yak sticks and chew hooves keep him busy, but socks are always fair game. Licorice is house trained, crate trained, and knows the value of a good belly rub after a long play session. He’s especially affectionate and gives plenty of kisses. While friendly, he can get overwhelmed around new dogs or in bustling parks, so he’s best placed as either the only dog or with one calm companion. He’s also great with children, fully vetted, microchipped, and neutered. By the way, as a Taurus, he’s loyal and stubborn in all the best ways.
