My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

 



Bourbon is a year old German Shepherd/Walker Hound mix. He is big and tall, around 70 lbs and full of life. He is a regular day camper at Camp Merricks and has been part of their fall group classes. He's learning all the good things dogs should know! Bourbon loves to play with other dogs but needs playmates that can handle his rambunctious play style. Older dogs that will correct him when he gets too rough are perfect.

Bourbon is the last of 8 puppies that came to us over the summer. Everyone else has found their homes so Bourbon hopes he will get his before the holidays. Stop in and meet Bourbon today!
