Crockett - Labrador Retriever and Boxer Dog Available for Adoption in Kimberlin Heights, Tennessee

One of our amazing fosters has raised these nuggets by hand from 5 days old-bottles, changing, bathing, clipping, snuggling, playing-all of it. There are six siblings, and they’re all pretty different in temperament. They came into the shelter without their Mama, and they’re Bitsa pups-bitsa this and that.

This little guy is Crockett. Named for the frontiersman and “man of the people,” our own little Crockett is dependable and true. We expect him to become a wonderful “dog of the family.” This very sweet, mild-mannered boy will be best suited with a stick-loving, ball-chasing best buddy. Of the siblings, he is likely the best fit for a family with children.
Crockett is 7 weeks old. He will be neutered at 8-9 weeks, vaccinated and dewormed to age, and available for adoption thereafter.
