About Larch

Meet Larch, a charming puppy born on September 8th at the shelter. He is one of nine siblings from a hound mix mother named Lenore. Larch may have some lab or golden retriever in his lineage, judging by the characteristics of his siblings. While he will be ready for his forever home in mid-November, he will need his third distemper/parvo vaccination along with a rabies shot and neuter surgery, all arranged through his adopter and covered under the adoption fee. Larch thrives on attention, training, and patient guidance, so committed homes are a must. He gets along well with other dogs and is young enough to adapt to living with cats. However, keep in mind that young children might not be the best match while Larch learns appropriate behavior. He needs an environment where he won't spend long hours alone. This puppy is eager to find a lasting home. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
