About Me
3/5/10 ADOPTION PENDING!! Larkin is an awesome young boy that loves to love his people. He was found at The Gap on the reservation as a small pup by a dumpster. His rescuers brought him home, gave him some TLC and a sense of security. He resembled a bear cub when they first got him, so he was named "Cubbie Larkin". Larkin has beautiful, black, shiny coat and a plume of a tail which flies high as he prounces and gallops throughout the yard. He is very good in the house, completely potty trained and sleeps in his crate at night. Larkin is learning his basic obedience now and will sit when asked and has a great call back. He isn't too bad on a leash, we use a regular lead and a retractable leash. Larkin does well with other dogs, he especially loves the girls! He also is CRAZY about stuffed toys and is very happy to have a rawhide to call his own. He also enjoys investigating the cat, he will chase her until she turns on him and swats his nose! Larkin is very friendly with people, he is the ultimate love bug and will try and snuggle on your lap if you let him. Larkin is great with kids and very patient with them, he would make a wonderful family dog. Larkin has a great outlook on life and is truely a happy-go-lucky dog. He is currently romping and playing in Flagstaff.
