My name is Licorice!

Animal Profile: Licorice wound up in the Stanislaus shelter as a stray and had been there for 20 days. When no one came to adopt him, he wound up on ‘the list’ and was at risk for euthanasia due to space. We had to bust him outta there! He is a friendly, sweet puppy that deserves a chance to find a loving home.

Foster Update:  Meet Licorice! This handsome 9-month-old mixed breed is as sweet as his name! Licorice currently weighs around 50 lbs and is growing into a strong, happy boy. He's a smart, playful pup who learns quickly and already knows most of his basic training. He's crate trained, neutered, and up to date on vaccines. He's ready to join his forever family! Licorice gets along wonderfully with other dogs and loves having a playmate to chase and wrestle with. His favorite activities include playing with sticks and balls, going for car rides, and spending time with his people — whether that means joining you on an adventure or snuggling up afterward. He'd be happiest in a home with a yard where he can stretch his legs, play fetch, and explore. Licorice is an excitable young and strong dog who will need physical and mental stimulation daily for fulfillment. 

 Adoption Info: Adoption fee is $575 which includes spay/neuter, core vaccinations per AVMA standards, heartworm test if applicable, microchip with registration, and health certificate.
