Diesel is a six-month-old black Labrador Retriever mix who grew up in the countryside. After being weaned, he ended up with a neighbor who hoped he’d become a playmate for their young grandchild, but Diesel is a bit too energetic for small children. If you’re looking for an active, affectionate puppy who lights up at the sight of chew toys, treats, or even simple ice cubes, Diesel fits the bill. At around 40 pounds, he’s playful and loves spending time outdoors, making him a solid candidate for hiking and walking adventures. Diesel shares his toys and food easily with the smaller dogs he lives with, listens well, and genuinely wants to please. He’d thrive in a home that will channel his energy positively and invest in his ongoing training. People who enjoy spending time outside and want a dog who’s ready to join in will click with him. Due to his enthusiasm, he will do best in a family without young children. Ready to start hiking and exploring together? Diesel is in Paris, KY and would love to meet you.
