About Sylvan

Sylvan is a lively little pup with a mostly solid white coat accented by some pale yellow and gray markings. He’s already been through a tough time, recovering from a bad bout of ringworm, but he’s emerged as a small but mighty companion. Known to be playful, he loves to perch on your shoulder for ear licks, showcasing his affectionate nature. Rescued alongside his 10 siblings from a remote country road, Sylvan is about 12 weeks old and ready for a new home. He’s learned to sit and is nearing house training, promising to be an easy addition to any family. These puppies are a mix of Labrador, German Shepherd, and more, exuding a friendly and happy demeanor. They come spayed/neutered and vaccinated, microchipped, and treated for flea/tick and heartworm prevention. Sylvan is adaptable and gets along with dogs, cats, and kids alike, making him an ideal family pet. Located in Alexander, AR, Sylvan can be adopted locally or transported to New England. You just need to meet our transporter on a Saturday in MD, PA, NJ, or CT. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
