Story
Floyd has been in our program for over 2 years now waiting for a forever family. He is such a great dog! But would do best with no other pets in the home as he prefers to be an only child. Floyd has learned how to be loved and has come such a long way. He's a Lab and Mastiff mix who is 6.5 years old now. There's still a road ahead of dedication and training that he'll need. Floyd is treat motivated, so he's responsive to training. He LOVES to play and run, and is a super toy chewer dog! Floyd is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, and currently receiving monthly prevention for flea/tick and heartworm. If you're the right family who is able to care for Floyd, please submit an adoption application via our website, www.effinghamanimalrescue.com.
