Firecracker (PUPPY) - German Shepherd Dog and Black Labrador Retriever Dog for Adoption in Greeneville, Tennessee

IDGSR Welcomes Firecracker into the safety of the rescue!!

THIS DOG IS FOSTERED IN TENNESSEE & AVAILABLE FOR TRANSPORT

**************
Hiya Friends! My name is Firecracker and I'm adorable 10-week old male Shepherd/Lab mix. I am located in Greeneville, TN and will be ready for transport on July 10th.

Quick Facts
Age: 10-weeks old
Kids: will do great with kids
Dogs: will do great with other dogs
Cats: will do fine with cats
Training: needs full obedience training

1. My family & I were rescued from living in horrible conditions. My beautiful German Shepherd mom was chained, not given proper care, and almost died from a flood. She protected us until the rescue stepped up to save us!

2. I appear to be a German Shepherd/Black Lab mix. My mom is beautiful (check her out my pictures/video) and my dad was probably a Lab.

3. I'm just a baby and know nothing, nada, not one ounce of civilized doggy behavior. I need a patient adopter to teach me house & crate training and eventually give me a PHD in obedience skills.

4. I will get along with anyone and everyone. If you have kids, dogs, cats, turtles, chickens, or a crabby neighbor, my good looks & bubbly personality will make every heart melt!

5. If you are ready to commit to 10-15yrs of love, laughter, puppy kisses, the occasional muddy floor, loyalty, and adventure - I'm your guy!

**SERIOUS APPLICANTS ONLY! If you are not 100% ready to adopt, please wait**
