About Silas

Silas is a 7-month-old, 35-pound Black Mouth Cur mix. This playful yet chill pup thrives on being around people and loves to please. Life on the streets wasn't easy for Silas, but now he’s in a loving foster home where he’s safe and well cared for. He enjoys his leash walks and is making good progress with potty training. At night, he eagerly hops into his kennel for bedtime, sometimes whining just a bit because, well, who wouldn’t want to stay up? Silas gets along well with other dogs and adores playing in the yard, followed by relaxing by your feet with a chew toy. A forever home with a fenced yard and a friendly canine companion would be perfect for him. While he may be a little rambunctious for tiny kids, he would do well with older, sturdy children who can handle his puppy energy. If you’re looking for a loving and eager companion, Silas is ready to bond with you! Just remember that puppies require time, commitment, and training, so ensure your household is prepared for the journey.
