About Landon

Landon is a lively, friendly Lab/Terrier mix who arrived at the shelter at just seven weeks old after being found roadside in a cardboard box with his littermates. Now nearly six months old, he still sports that thick chocolate-black fur with splashes of white and hasn't lost his zest for play. Landon is still very much a puppy, full of high energy and curiosity, always up for playing with other dogs, and adores a good run in the yard. He’s the smallest of his siblings, but this doesn’t slow him down or dull his spirited nature. Landon is not yet house trained, but he’s eager to learn and thrives around people and other dogs. Scheduled to be neutered soon, he’s up to date on vaccinations and ready for his next adventure. Landon is in Clarksville, VA and looking for someone to match his energy and give him the affectionate home he deserves. They are ready to love you; are you ready to apply?
